Cindy Crawford: Fabulous at 50

Los Angeles

"Women like Helen Mirren and Jane Fonda, they look amazing and they look appropriate. They look amazing but they're not trying to look 30. I don't want to be trying to compete with my 14-year-old daughter (Kaia Gerber) - because I would lose."

"I always thought, 'When can I just let it all go?' It's just never. There is no age now! It was the aspect of embracing turning 50 and celebrating the past, but at the same time I am embracing where I am," Crawford told people.com.

The 49-year-old star has also praised her children Kaia and Presley for making her feel at ease with ageing.

"I do and I'm really jealous. No, I'm joking. I always tease her, 'You have my old legs. Give them back'."

"I think honestly I am probably the hardest on myself. It's beautiful as a mother to watch your children grow up and become whoever they're going to be, and I think that makes it easier for me to watch myself also getting older," she said.
