Dame Helen Mirren, 78, Dazzles On The Runway For Paris Fashion Week

Paris Fashion Week isn’t just for the young and fashionable, and Dame Helen Mirren proved just that as she walked the runway for the L’Oreal fashion show.

Mirren, 78, wore a shimmering silver gown for the show with her hair blown out, as it framed her glowing face. Unlike the Cannes Film Festival this year, when she dyed her hair blue, Mirren wore her natural locks for the fashion show.

Mirren wasn’t the only star to grace the L’Oreal runway, though, as Andie MacDowell, Kendall Jenner, Eva Longoria, Viola Davis, Elle Fanning and Aishwarya Rai were also there.

Off the runway, Mirren is talking about her new film, Golda, in which she plays the fourth Prime Minister of Israel, Golda Meir.

Controversy on Mirren’s casting of the late Israeli prime minister has been a discussion lately, as Mirren is not Jewish.

Asked about her portrayal of Meir, Mirren made it clear that she informed Golda director, Guy Nattiv, that she was not Jewish.

“I said, ‘If that’s an issue, I’ll step away, no problem.; But he said, ‘No, it’s not an issue. I want you to play Golda.’ And off we went,” Mirren told Radio Times magazine.

Golda is now available to watch in theaters and rent on Prime, Apple TV and YouTube.
