Demi Moore's secret

By: Bob Bas

A its 48 years, she has become a model for millions of women for their ability to make time in their favor. Among his allies, Helena Rubinstein, the firm that gives image.

• attempts to start in Demi Moore what is more wonderful every day is an impossible task. At 48 years, she claims to have not done any facial surgery, and the truth is that at short distances is not seen the trail of the scalpel. One of two things: either you have a terrific surgeon and has been able to nourish your skin like no other. She laughs. "not rule it out, but I prefer more natural methods to look good" , says in the intimacy of a boutique hotel in Los Angeles. Even the managers of the establishment know they are here. He has performed alone, without assistants or bodyguards, and has set up three interviews in a room reserved under another name. All a show of discretion They could learn a lot of young players that are delivered to the promotion with much fanfare, escorted by representatives who like to negotiate in advance what topics and what is best to ignore.

• She comes with a free hand. Not here to make any film, but his cooperation with the firm Helena Rubinstein. His image is almost five years.

• not give up in our efforts, we ask you to reveal their trick to be splendid. "There is no foolproof formula. For me, the main thing is to be good inside and outside that is reflected in Instead of obsessing with surface treatments and the image you project. You have to work within you, your happiness, your quality of life. And ensure that clean and moisturize your skin every night. No matter how late I stay up or where you are. My mother always said it and I also remember my daughters. "Although Moore avoid making reference to it, if we have to add a vegetarian chef who prepares a daily menu, a personal trainer and expensive beauty treatments .

• In any case, she is part of that race privileged women who have made the time your best friend. When released in the eighties, his angular face and combed impossible relegated to the tail of that which is called bratpack (or gang of boys). The recognition that brought you Ghost gave way to a woman much more confident of their fitness. It soon became a heroine can topple the cliches of the industry. He sold his body for a million dollars in Indecent Proposal. It became a sexual predator harassment. He became the highest paid actress in Hollywood (with a check for $ 12 million) to undress in an American bar in Striptease. And he shaved his hair to the Marine in Lt. O'Neil. All breathing almost imperceptibly.

• Today we remember with a certain serenity and pride. "I've always been attracted to the provocation, is a useful tool to question things and stimulate debate on certain issues. But we must be prepared to assume the reactions that can generate; when you're someone famous, somehow, acquire some social responsibility. With Striptease, for example, I felt like I was exploring my sexuality, a seductive force that could recognize many women perfectly. But all the controversy centered on who was undressing me. Many were disappointed. The same thing happened with much of the male audience when Lt. O'Neil did. "

• to justify their desire to constantly challenge yourself and challenge the artist alludes to the need to get out of their comfort zone, that space in which we are all sure of ourselves, we know that we control. When we were just as familiar to us we become lazy, we stop growing as people " he said.

• There are other strange places in his profession. As the boundary of the forty years when the phone stops ringing because you can not continue to be the sexy girl in the film, but does not fit as a mother. In the case coincided with a withdrawal volunteer at the turn of the century. Their amicable divorce from Bruce Willis joined the cancer death of his mother, whose alcoholism forced the hustler Demi Moore as a teenager . "I found that my three daughters were growing up. I had suffered the consequences of living the absence of a father and a mother's inattention. I did not want them to have to go through anything like" reveals. Today confirms that deals with that past in an autobiography still no date of publication. "Rather be a reflection on what it means to be mother," she corrected.

• His retirement to a small town in Idaho but did not make it a fetish even more desired by the industry. The producer of Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle did not end up looking to convince her to come back in a bikini great guy in that movie for girls and cakes that did not hide a desire autoparódico. By then, Moore had become a seasoned producer (financed the Austin Powers franchise, for example) and a perfect command of the mechanics of show business. However, it still did not achieve shine for his roles on screen.

• His surprising courtship with Ashton Kutcher, 15 years her junior, did not contribute to its growth as a film star, but to revive public interest in the figure. They married in 2005, a kabbalistic ceremony (Moore was introduced to the spiritual doctrine and now her friend Madonna is a faithful practitioner). And since then have been the subject of countless rumors. A few weeks before this interview, the U.S. tabloid press claimed that Kutcher had a crush on a blonde. How do you approach it that kind of rumors? With its unchanging kindness, without taking his eyes, answered: "Would you prefer to continue this interview or walk out the door? Then you had better pass to the next question." I said, Moore did not hard agents are needed to hand, is quite capable of defending herself. As evidence, approaches the criticism he has heard in years. "When we started it was said that I was a predator of young men. I found it unfair and in bad taste: my relationship with my husband was strong from the beginning."

• may be that one reason why the couple has embraced Twitter as a direct line of communication with the world. She currently has three and a half million followers (as @ mrskutcher look it), he has become more the person monitoring the planet (currently ranked seventh). Although his adventure in social networking news we have in store as silly as photographed Demi's ass Ashton to treason, in recent times have become a weapon to denounce the trafficking and sexual exploitation of children.

• Through Demi and Ashton Foundation to help women in this difficult situation. And with the participation of other famous friends. His last campaign, Real Men Do not buy girls (real men do not buy girls), shows Justin Timberlake shaving with a chainsaw or a sandwich ironing Sean Penn. "Everything we do is small. Socially must be put at risk the male hegemony. But the first change must be in ourselves, in learn to value ".

• In his questioning of the roles, we've seen Moore leaving for vacation the entire clan: her current husband, his ex-Willis and her daughters. All conveniently photographed by Annie Leibovitz , the head photographer. With it made the cover of the scandal, the one published by Vanity Fair in 1991 which showed naked seven months pregnant and has since been replicated hundreds of times by other celebrities. Even today do not understand why armed fuss. "It was the last photo session, we did something private for the family. Annie called me weeks later asking me if I dared to was published. I got it as a beautiful celebration of motherhood, but again many people misinterpreted the gesture and generated many protests, "he recalls.

• has expressed his desire to return to being a mother." It is a possibility that me round the head. I do not see age as an impediment to anything. Women have to learn to listen to our wishes before any social convention.

• ELIXIR OF YOUTH
• Cosmetics is reconciled to the mature woman as a lure. Helena Rubinstein forward with Demi Moore, which clarifies: "I see it as a celebration of all ages. Advertising can not lose its aspirational component, but also ignore the reality: women want to see a reflection of something that will be soon." Among his favorites, Moore highlights the line Powercell Prodigy, which adds to the properties of hyaluronic acid, the active ingredients of the plant repair Oceanic Crista.

• PRODIGIOUS AND PIONEERING
• When Helena Rubinstein arrived in Australia in 1894 from his native Poland never thought he would eventually build an empire. Their homemade cream flavored linolina aromatic plants became an instant hit among her neighbors. Therefore, he moved to London in 1908 to manage its own brand, one of the first cosmetic companies in the world. passed through Paris, where he rubbed elbows with the intellectual elite, and ended in the U.S., home of rival Elizabeth Arden. His masterstroke was to sell his company in 1928, a year before the crack of 29, to Lehman Brothers for $ 7.3 million to retrieve it later by just one million . This is how expanded its chain and began his role as patron of the arts (supported, for example, the beloved Dali and Miro). For when he died in 1965, many considered the first multi-million dollar self-made history.
