Brooke Shields is done with chasing youth and doesn’t care what you think.
She’s too busy remaking her future.
My mother made them shave the body down, Shields recalled, laughing.

So Im the only Barbie doll that has no boobs.
Shields was clearly touched by the gesture, though, and accepted her award with tears in her eyes.
Do I wish things were as high and perky as they used to be?
But finally, Ive reallyits taken a while, but Ive finally learned to like myself as I am.
Ive learned to value my individual worth.
Id never done that before.
Saint Laurent blazer. Ara Vartanian earrings. Prasi necklace. Tabayer ring. Fernando Jorge ring. Saint Laurent shoes.
Nobody really ever taught me to or told me it was okay.
My value just never seemed to go beyond looking a certain way, or of being a good girl.
Truth is, I will never again be as young as I am right now.
And Im gonna keep reclaiming them.
Hold tight to your female friends…, the Woman of the Year concluded.
Just keep the good ones around you.
Much of my growth is because of these brave women and other brave women in my life.
