Age is just a number when it comes to going au naturel!
In a revealingInstagram postin 2022, former supermodelPaulina Porizkovadiscussed society’s objectification of womenwhile reclaiming her sexuality at an older age.
“In a patriarchal society, women have always been seen as objects of desire or nurture… This is why youth and beauty are such a strong currency,” she captioned. “I’ve come to wonder if objectification falls mainly into the realm of youth. When I was a young model exposing my body, it was because someone else approved of it.”
She continued, “Now when I expose my body, it [is] with my full knowledge and consent. Hence, celebration.”
From Porizkova’s cheeky mirror selfie toNaomi Campbell’s toplessi-Dmagazine cover, here are some celebs over 50 who’ve struck a pose naked.
