Penelope Cruz

Penelope Cruz has vowed to grow old gracefully like her icon Sophia Loren and insists she will not have cosmetic surgery to keep her looks.

The actress says she is looking forward to getting older and is not worried about getting grey hair and wrinkles.

Penelope told Cosmopolitan: "Age holds absolutely no fear for me. There is so much enjoyment ahead.

"Sophia is 74 and amazing - every time I talk to her, she's full of wonderful stories about old actors."

That's easy for someone so naturally beautiful to say but it seems Penelope has body hang ups just like the rest of us. She said: "I know myself a little bit more (as I grow older)... but I wish I was less insecure.

"I've always had my insecurities and most of them have not gone away. I guess we're all vulnerable."
