Jamie Lee Curtis critiques cosmetic beauty standards and AI filters in new interview
Jamie Lee Curtis has expressed concern about the long-term impact of the cosmetic industry on women's perceptions of ageing and beauty. In a recent interview with The Guardian, Curtis criticised the growing trend of surgical and digital appearance alteration, calling it a 'disfigurement of generations of predominantly women.' The 66-year-old actress, known for her roles in Freaky Friday and Halloween, stated she has used strong language, including the word 'genocide,' to describe what she sees as the erasure of natural human appearance. She clarified that while this term is provocative, it reflects her deep concern about societal pressures on women to change how they look. Curtis also criticised the influence of artificial intelligence and beauty filters, explaining that such tools contribute to unrealistic standards. 'Better is fake,' she said, highlighting how digitally enhanced images can subtly alter self-perception and public expectations. Despite her strong stance, Curtis emphasised she does not criticise individuals who choose cosmetic procedures. 'It's not my job to give my opinion; it's none of my business,' she noted, adding that once people begin altering their appearance, the process can become difficult to stop. Curtis has previously discussed ageing in public life, including during a 2024 appearance on Today, where she described embracing her natural appearance as a mark of maturity. She emphasised the importance of being honest about thoughts and feelings as part of growing older.

Lindsay Lohan reveals advice from Jamie Lee Curtis ahead of ‘Freakier Friday' sequel
Lindsay Lohan is reflecting on timeless advice she received from Jamie Lee Curtis while filming the 2003 Disney hit Freaky Friday. Now 39, Lohan opened up at the NYC screening of their upcoming sequel Freakier Friday, which hits theaters August 8. 'She said, 'How you show up on set is how the whole crew feels. You control the energy that goes on set, so always bring your best self,'' Lohan shared, recalling Curtis' impact during her early years in Hollywood. The original Freaky Friday featured the two as a mother-daughter duo who magically switch bodies. Over two decades later, the sequel takes things further, with a four-way body-swap involving Lohan's on-screen daughter and Curtis' soon-to-be step-granddaughter. Lohan admitted returning to the franchise was deeply emotional. 'It's very full circle for me,' she said. 'It was just a really exciting day when we were first there, all together.' Now a mother herself, Lohan shares 2-year-old son Luai with her husband, Bader Shammas, whom she married in 2022. When asked about motherhood, the Mean Girls star beamed, 'All of it! There's not one favorite part, it's all of it.' Curtis, 66, also reflected on Lohan's growth. 'Lindsay being grown up is something I've watched happen… I watched her get married, I watched her have a baby… and it's beautiful to see.' The reunion marks not just a cinematic comeback, but a personal milestone for both stars, who have maintained a 20-year friendship off-screen.

Jamie Lee Curtis gives reason on why she's stepping back from acting
Jamie Lee Curtis is preparing to retire from acting, citing her parents' experience of being rejected by Hollywood due to age. She stated that she witnessed her parents, Janet Leigh and Tony Curtis, lose their fame and livelihood as the industry eroded their careers. Curtis expressed her desire to "leave the party before I'm no longer invited" to avoid suffering the same fate as her family. She controversially likened the cosmeceutical industry's "disfiguration" of women to "genocide," arguing it has wiped out natural human appearance. Curtis is set to star in 'Freakier Friday', a sequel to 'Freaky Friday', which is scheduled for release on 8 August.
