Being an A-list celebrity comes with baggage. It’s not easy feeling the whole world watch your every move. Knowing that people are judging you based on your looks, what you’re wearing, and your personal choices. Michelle Pfeiffer is no exception to this phenomenon.

You probably can’t even remember the first time you saw her because it seems like she’s been on your screens forever. Whether it was being catwoman in the famous Batman movie franchise, a musical like Hairspray, or a classic like Scarface, she has always been captivating.
Being an A-lister like Michelle means that people see her as a role model. Unlike other famous beauties, Michelle has always taken this responsibility seriously. She’s never been the type to get caught up in scandals or set a bad example for her fans.
As with any female celebrity, people love to look for flaws. But Michelle Pfeiffer is one of the few Hollywood actresses that opted not to get plastic surgery. Instead, she is aging gracefully and very –shockingly– slowly. Naturally, everyone is asking: what’s her secret?

Curious? Lucky for you, Michelle opened up to us and revealed her secret to a youthful look and how she dramatically slows down the aging process. Can’t wait to hear more? Read on:
Urbanette Magazine: You have this incredible glow about you, Michelle. Your skin is so healthy-looking and much younger than your years. I’m sure our readers want to know –what’s your secret?
Michelle Pfeiffer: Thank you! I definitely think it’s because I’m vegan. Eating a vegan diet — it’s just so much healthier — and you avoid a lot of toxins that could age your skin and your body. I really noticed a difference in my skin not too long after switching to fully vegan. And I needed to eat are fruits and vegetables to stay lean. It’s all about vanity, honestly. [She laughs.] The older I’ve gotten, the more it’s occurred to me that I’m doing it in order to live longer, though the vanity component will always be there.

Urbanette: The general public’s perception is that going vegan is not an easy feat. That’s why when someone goes vegan, the question many wonder is “why’d they do it?” I know you’re loving the benefits and have lots of reasons to stay on a vegan diet, but what was the initial inspiration behind it?
ミシェル: I was watching CNN, and ‘The Last Heart Attack’ came on. I watched Bill Clinton talk about the last heart attack he had and learned that Clinton is a foodie. He’s a smart guy, so I’m thinking, ” if Bill Clinton loves the book by Dr. Esselstyn, there must be something that makes him stick to it.” He isn’t going to do something unless that there’s science behind it. So I got the book and I just felt like the science behind it was irrefutable. I couldn’t avoid the truth in it. My father died from cancer, and the older you get there’s a lot of disease. You see people dying from chronic disease and terminal illnesses. Anyway, science is always changing, but this one seems to stick.
Urbanette: I’m sorry to hear about your father having had cancer. I had it too, which was part of my process for going vegan. It’s a very anti-cancer diet. It seems like nowadays so many people get it — young people, too.
ミシェル: So you know — there’s just too much cancer. I just feel like if there’s anything that I can do to lend my support, I’m happy to do it. I’m an active participant in Cedar Sinai’s Pink Party. The founder is an old friend of mine and I know her from the old neighborhood and met her thirteen years ago when she first opened her shop. And over the years, I’ve seen this pink party grow from a neighborhood thing to one of Cedar Sinai’s biggest cancer fundraisers. We both have someone very close to us with ovarian cancer.

Urbanette: Let’s go back to the vegan diet. Was sticking to it hard for you initially?
ミシェル: Maybe for the first few weeks, but I love the vegan diet because I love carbs. I’ve never really loved animal protein in terms of animal meat. I only ate it because I used to think it was good for me.

Urbanette: あなたはかつて、ブレリアリズムを実践するカルトの一員だったとおっしゃっていましたね。 ビーガンになると、そのようなライフスタイルがフラッシュバックすることがありますか?
ミシェル: 何年も前に演じた役について調べているときに、自分がカルトのメンバーだったことに気づきました。 私はまだ若くてハリウッドに来たばかりで、フィジカルトレーナーであると主張するこのカップルと関わりました。 彼らは私に誰も守れないようなダイエットをさせました。 彼らはとてもコントロールしていました。 私は彼らと一緒に住んでいませんでしたが、よくそこにいて、彼らはいつも私にもっと来る必要があると言いました。 滞在時間はすべて料金を支払わなければならなかったので、経済的に非常に大変でした。 彼らは、最高の状態にある人々は呼吸困難であると信じています。 彼らは、私たちに栄養を与えるのに食べ物や水は必要なく、太陽だけが必要だと信じていました。
Urbanette: そこから抜け出せたのは素晴らしいことです。
ミシェル: 最初の夫、ピーター・ホートンは私がそれを克服するのを助けてくれました。

Urbanette: 誰もがあなたが美しく年を重ねていることを称賛しており、あなたは整形を受けていない数少ない女性女優の一人です。 これについてあなたの立場は何ですか?
ミシェル: 時々それについて考えますが、時々考えません。 それは本当に私がどれだけ明るく照らされているかに依存します。 それは私のメイクやあらゆる種類のことによって異なります。
Urbanette: それで検討しているんですか? それについてどう思いますか?
ミシェル: いつか整形手術を受けないとは言いません。 年齢を重ねれば重ねるほど、「絶対にしない」と言うのは難しくなると思います。 特に世間の注目を浴びること。 それはあまり重要ではありません。人々が実際にあちこちで何かをしたいとしても、誰が気にするでしょうか? それで彼らが自分自身について少しでも気分が良くなるなら…私が反対することはやりすぎです。 そして本当にひどい整形手術。 それが気を紛らわせてしまったとき、そして人々が自分らしくなくなってしまったとき。 彼らを追い越さない限り。
Urbanette: ヴィーガンになろうと考えている人たちへのアドバイスは何ですか?
ミシェル: 私は、私がやったことをやりなさいと言うでしょう。 ある日、私は自分に、8週間の猶予を与えてやると言いました。 そして、私はこれに一生取り組むつもりはありません。なぜなら、人々がこのことに頭を悩ませるのは心理的に非常に大きなことだからです。 それで、自分の気持ちを見て、もう一度血液検査して、何かあるかどうかを確認するつもりです。 それだけ長く続けると、最初にそれがどれほど大きくて難しいかを感じたという事実をある程度乗り越えることができます。 そして、自分自身に十分な時間を費やして、気分が変わり始め、何らかのメリットが得られると感じられれば、それは素晴らしいことです。

Loved reading your article today. She’s so beautiful, honest and true. ❤❤❤
A very good read! It is inspiring to read an exceptional actress reveal “natural” beauty secrets especially in this day and age where even very young girls would like to undergo plastic surgery because of what is seen and heard from well-known personalities.
Thanks for publishing this interview! You always have encouraging articles for your readers!
OMG! She’s so beautiful! In the future, I want to be like her… Be look up to and be known as someone who maintained beauty without the need to undergo plastic surgery!
I know right!!! Of course, we can be like her!!! To be honest, I find some actors/actress funny because they obviously have undergone bad plastic surgery! Very obvious and just won’t fit them! LOL
Great article, Urbanette! I’m aging gracefully 🙂 I used to tell myself that age is just a number. Well, I still do but I make sure that as number(s) continuously add to my age, I maintain a healthy living.
Like Michelle, I’m not a big fan of plastic surgery. I have this belief that if you want to be beautiful and fit, you’ve got to achieve and work for it, and not just depend on easy ways.
Yeah, it’s really alarming and disheartening that younger generations are getting cancer 🙁
After reading this interview, I felt more contented that I went vegan! I guess despite the positive effects I feel (like eliminating that bloated feeling) I still need more motivation to keep me going with my vegan diet…
Wonderful interview! Michelle has proven that if you want something, you have to work hard and persevere. I’m glad that plastic surgery is not really an option to her. I also applaud her because she’s vegan!
Yeah, she’s an exceptional actress! I learned something new today — “breatharianism.” One of the fad diets…
Very nice interview! Thanks for revealing natural beauty secrets! It feels motivating that an influential person like her is not really into artificial methods of retaining beauty — plastic surgery.
Indeed she’s aging gracefully. I agree with her, there’s nothing wrong with plastic surgery but there is “bad plastic surgery” that destroys.
And yeah, being vegan eliminates toxins leaving skin healthy and glowing 😉
She is very beautiful! And still very influential! Reading this interview made me more proud I became vegan 🙂 I know I’m on the right track!
