Demi Moore Shares Refreshing Take on Aging, Graying Hair
Originally appeared on E! Online Demi Moore is down to embrace aging full throttle. The Substance actress has become known for her long brunette hair over the past couple of decades in Hollywood, especially after having gone through so many hair transformations for films such as Ghost and G.I. Jane, so much so that she would have hard time letting it go. "I have grown quite attached to my hair," Demi told People in an interview for its World's Most Beautiful issue published April 25. "From a certain point of having had no hair." "I don't know, I feel fairly connected to my hair in a different kind of way," she added of the prospect of chopping off her signature locks again. "There's energy in hair, you know? But I never like to say never." But one change she would happily embrace? Gray hair, though only when it starts to come in in a more substantial way. "Oh 100%. I look at women who have that incredible gray, especially long, and I think it's striking," the 62-year-old shared. "I would definitely do it." More from E!

"Mine's like a smattering that makes my hair look murky. I didn't really start coloring my hair until I was, like, 55." The Oscar nominee admitted with a laugh that "it's more than it used to be," then pointed to one of her late family member's as a potential source of inspiration as to what to do with her hair as she ages. "My great grandmother on my mom's side never had any gray," Demi shared, "and she never cut her hair." This isn't the only first time that the Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle actress has discussed her feelings about getting older. In fact, soon after discussing the physical aspects of aging, Demi reflected on what it means to progress in life. "I also have thought recently about this idea that aging and being old are not the same thing," she explained at the TIME100 Summit April 23, per The Hollywood Reporter. "And somehow we've confused that and that aging actually is a tremendous gift." "I would not trade—you could not pay me to be 21," Demi added. "As good as it might sound, it was torture!"

Beyonce's mum Tina Knowles dishes about her dating life post-divorce: ‘I am spending time with…'
Beyoncé's mum, Tina Knowles — queen mother of the Carter dynasty, haircare maven behind Cécred, and certified baddie at 71 — has some tea to spill for fans across the world. In this week's World's Most Beautiful issue of PEOPLE, Tina Knowles didn't just pose looking radiant, she also casually let slip that she's back in the dating game. 'I am spending time with a friend,' she said with that signature Southern sweetness. And apparently that friend is 'a very nice gentleman.' Translation: he better be treating her like the divine goddess she is, or Solange's next elevator moment might be more public. It's been nearly two years since Tina finalised her divorce from actor Richard Lawson, whom she married in 2015. 'Love is patient, love is kind,' she wrote in her memoir, Matriarch. 'Love is also not a competition or mired in jealousy.' She made it clear: she walked away with grace, not bitterness, and hasn't lost a wink of sleep since. Contrarily, her first marriage to Mathew Knowles — father to Beyoncé and Solange — was a 31-year emotional marathon filled with betrayals, forgiveness, and that painful, slow-motion exit so many women will recognise. 'I was caught in this dance with him, each doing the same steps over and over: He would cheat or act up, and I would say I'd had enough. He would beg for forgiveness, crying and promising to get better... But this is what married people did, I told myself.' Still, Tina's not one to wallow. In fact, she's got her eyes set firmly forward, and heels to match. Reflecting on what made it easier to move on from her second marriage, she says it simply: 'Age, experience, confidence, a lot of things.' And now? She's dating. She's glowing. She's feeling sexy. 'Just getting all dressed up and done up, makeup, hair. You know, putting on something that fits well. It's fun looking sexy. It makes me feel sexy,' she says. So, whether you asked or not, consider yourself updated. Beyoncé's mom is out here living her best, most flirtatious chapter yet. And honestly? We're here for every fabulous minute of it.

Tina Knowles Recalls Night Her Brother Was Beaten by Police: How 'It Changed My Family Forever' (Exclusive)
Growing up in Galveston, Texas amid segregation and overt racism, Tina Knowles has seen some heartbreaking things. In new memoir Matriarch, Beyoncé and Solange's mom, 71, opens up about the beautiful highs and dark lows of her Southern childhood, and in this week's World's Most Beautiful issue she tells PEOPLE that one incident in particular had lifelong effects on her family. Born Celestine Beyoncé in Galveston, Texas to Agnes, a skilled seamstress and homemaker, and Lumis, a longshoreman, Knowles wasn't always as poised and put together as she is today. On the contrary, 'I was always in trouble. That's why they called me Bad Ass Tenie B, which was not a term of endearment back then. My mother would always say, 'Tenie, something bad is going to happen because your mouth is just too smart.'' Related: Tina Knowles Shares How She Raised Beyoncé, Solange and Kelly Differently: 'Couldn't Lump Them into One' (Exclusive) Attending Catholic grade school as a kid, 'the nuns told me that they would break my spirit,' she says recalling instances of traumatic corporal punishment. 'I decided at 5 years old that they weren't. I became a warrior.' As a little Black girl, the youngest of five siblings growing up amid segregation in the South, she was going to need that fighting spirit. Matriarch shares graphic details of the racial profiling and injustices that plagued her early years and otherwise happy family. But one ordeal, the beating of her older brother Lumis "Skip" Joseph Beyoncé by police in 1967, 'changed my family forever,' she says. In the book she writes that Skip — who earned his nickname as a kid for always skipping — was a teen returning home from a date one night in a taxi that accidentally dropped him off at the wrong address. The neighbor who saw a man on their porch called the police, but when they arrived and the neighbor recognized Skip she tried to explain that "he's a good boy," Knowles writers. But it was too late. The officers aggressively arrested him and took him away as his family, who'd been alerted by the neighbor and arrived on the scene, looked on in horror. "'Please don't let them kill my son.' She said it over and over, a sobbing prayer," Knowles writes of her mother's pleas to the one Black officer who was at the scene. The next day the family was called down to the station to pick up Skip. He was covered in blood having been beaten. 'They could have killed him... we thought he was dead," says Knowles now looking back on the incident. "The constant fear and anxiety my parents had was all from that experience.' Related: Tina Knowles Details Ex Mathew's Infidelity — and Why She Finally Ended Their Marriage — in New Book: 'Felt Like I Failed' After that night, "We were harassed by the police for years, and, it kept you, like, on guard all the time," says Knowles who once was arrested by the same officer who'd attacked her brother. "My mother could never really relax." Despite it all, she would resist, taking part in Civil Rights protests to help better conditions for Black people in Galveston. As she looks over the ups and downs of her life, Knowles says, "the reason why I am the person that I am and I don't have, you know, bitterness and anger and I can still have so much joy in life and love freely is because of my family." She continues, "My parents weren't the parents that said, oh, you could be anything you want to be. I never heard that. I heard get you a good government job and, you know, settle for less, basically. But on the other side of it, was that your family is everything. As long as you've got your family, as long as you've got God first, life is amazing." Matriarch is available now, wherever books are sold.

Tina Knowles Shares How She Raised Beyoncé, Solange and Kelly Differently: 'Couldn't Lump Them into One' (Exclusive)
When it comes to motherhood, Tina Knowles knows how to compartmentalize. The Matriarch author, 71, and mom to Beyoncé, 43, Solange 38, and who she calls her "bonus daughter," Kelly Rowland, 44, opens up to PEOPLE in this week's World's Most Beautiful issue about what it was like raising her talented girls in the spotlight. Knowles, who once sang in a girl group with friends and dreamed of stardom herself, grew up feeling loved, but limited. "My parents never said, 'Oh, you could be anything you want to be.'" Thus when she met and married first husband Mathew and they welcomed their own daughters, "I told my kids the sky's the limit every day."

Eldest Beyoncé, a quiet kid but naturally gifted singer and performer, spent her childhood in talent shows and girl groups, practicing at home in Houston or in her mom's salon while working to break into the music industry. When Destiny's Child took off like a rocket in the late '90s, it brought the whole family along for the ride. A skilled hairstylist and fashion designer, Knowles spent most of the 2000s behind the scenes creating avant garde looks for the Beyoncé-fronted super group, helping define the hit R&B act's unique style, before implementing the same winning strategy on her daughters' solo careers. Solange grew up to flex her dance skills as a choreographer with the group before later setting out on her own successful solo singing career. 'I always looked at my kids very differently,' says Knowles, speaking of her biological daughters as well as Beyoncé's best friend and longtime bandmate Kelly Rowland, whom she helped raise from age 11.

And I always spent time with each one of them separately so that they could feel special.' As for what she got from her girls, "Beyoncé and Solange have taught me to be fearless and to not have hang ups. That's one of the biggest things that Beyoncé has taught me, is to just take a compliment and say thank you." Solange, on the other hand, "has taught me how to just be fearless about dressing. She's like, 'Mom, go for it. Stop wearing a black suit every day.'"

"They were very supportive of me and very conscious of the fact that you have to get your mammograms on time," says Knowles, who writes in the book that her girls, including niece Angie Beyincé, serenaded her as she went into surgery. "I think we've always been very close," she says, "but it renewed our commitment to spending more time together because life can be short." Looking back over her incredible life, as she does in Matriarch, Knowles says "My journey has been filled with, oh God, so many obstacles, so many hardships, but it's also been filled with a tremendous amount of joy, love, laughter, dancing. Making women feel beautiful." But above all, she says, "being a mother, it's been the best part of it." Matriarch is available now, wherever books are sold.

Tina Knowles Confirms She's Dating a 'Very Nice Gentleman' After Divorce from Richard Lawson (Exclusive)
Tina Knowles is moving on with life and love. It's been nearly two years since her divorce from actor Richard Lawson, whom Knowles married back in 2015, and Beyoncé and Solange's mom tells PEOPLE in this week's World's Most Beautiful issue that she is back in the dating game. Asked if she is currently seeing someone, Knowles, 71, confirmed that indeed she is. "I am spending time with a friend," she says demurely, adding that he's a "very nice gentleman. We'll see what happens." As for what led to her sudden split from Lawson, Knowles reflects on the marriage and how it ended, in her sweeping new memoir Matriarch. Though she stops short of sharing what exactly precipitated her split with Lawson, she writes, "Love is patient, love is kind. Love is also not a competition or mired in jealousy. I made the decision to divorce with a heavy heart but totally without malice, and I have not lost a night of sleep over it." This is in stark contrast to how her marriage to Mathew Knowles, her first husband and the father of her daughters, ended. In the new book she's opening up for the first time about his decades of infidelity, and how difficult it was for her to leave the marriage after 31 years. She writes, "I was caught in this dance with him, each doing the same steps over and over: He would cheat or act up, and I would say I'd had enough. He would beg for forgiveness, crying and promising to get better... But this is what married people did, I told myself." Related: Tina Knowles Details Ex Mathew's Infidelity — and Why She Finally Ended Their Marriage — in New Book: 'Felt Like I Failed' The pair split in 2011 and she admits it took her time to fully walk away. But, she tells PEOPLE, that was just not the case with Lawson. As for what made ending her second marriage easier, she offers, "age, experience, confidence, a lot of things." These days, she's not looking back, only forward. And, she's feeling sexy. "Just getting all dressed up and done up, makeup, hair. You know, putting on something that fits well. It's fun looking sexy. It makes me feel sexy." Most of all, Knowles says she's "making the best of every day that I have left in this life."
