Brooke Shields has been in the public eye since she began modeling at 11 months old. Days ahead of her 60th birthday, the actress, model, and author tells Reshma she’s in her “give no f*cks” era. Brooke talks about coming to terms with aging in front of the world, as chronicled in her latest book, Brooke Shields Is Not Allowed to Get Old. They also discuss how aging affects our hair and scalp, which inspired Brooke to start Commence, a hair care company designed for women over 40. Plus, Reshma pays Brooke a compliment that makes her emotional.
