After a year hiatus, the Golden Globes grey carpet is back and better than ever. As the best in entertainment gather to honor those who kept us glued to our screens last year, it’s the women of a certain demographic who caught our eyes with sophisticated styles, high glam and an air of royalty. We’ve highlighted the best looks brought to you courtesy of Hollywood’s hottest over women over 50.
In the past, ageism in the entertainment industry was a significant barrier for actresses over 50. They were often relegated to playing stereotypical roles as mothers or grandmothers, limiting the range of their talent. However, this narrative is changing, with the industry recognizing that talent knows no age.
While it’s important to focus on the achievements and talent of individuals rather than their physical appearance, it’s worth acknowledging that many women over 50 in the entertainment industry continue to impress with their grace, style, and charisma. Here’s, a list of some accomplished and celebrated- and hottest women over 50 who have graced the Golden Globes.
