Susan Sarandon graces the July cover of Woman & Home.
Inside the mag, the big screen legend chats about a few of her greatest loves, from acting to men.
Here are some highlights:
Susan on acting: “I fell into acting. My husband, Chris, was an actor and I was the wifey, but I started doing some modelling and his agent sent me on an audition for a film called Joe. I got the part and it ended up being a breakthrough movie. The next thing I got was a soap, then another film – I thought it was a riot. It was a number of years before I thought, “I guess I’m an actor.”Susan on her role in Enchanted: “I was honoured to play an iconic Disney figure in Enchanted. I love that the princess is plucky and saves the prince. I love my character, Queen Narissa. It’s so much fun to be evil. She has no compassion – she’s completely over the top and imbalanced – it’s fabulous!”
Susan on her new film: “I am also excited about my next film, The Lovely Bones [released in March 2009]. I love the book and it’s my first time playing a grandmother. She’s a great life force in the story, a completely insensible alcoholic with a great sense of humour. It was fun and, of course, so interesting to work with Peter Jackson.”
Susan on beauty: “I haven’t had any work done to my face. I’d be lying if I said losing my jaw line was a pleasant thing and I am not ruling out eventually doing something. But I do think the plastic surgery thing can get addictive and extreme. I think looking good and being sexy is a state of mind. It’s about saying “yes” to life. There are lots of women my age and older who are living very vital lives. By the time my daughter is 60 and looks fabulous, it’ll be great if no one is making a fuss about it. How fantastic when it’s accepted that you can look good at any age.”
Susan on men: “There’s nothing that turns me on more than a smart guy with a sense of humour and a little bit of a twinkle in his eye. I like men who cry and who listen, and who have a strong feminine side. I also like a man who can take care of things for me. I don’t care what age a man is, if he’s older or younger – it doesn’t matter to me. I like someone who can dance and laugh, and has a sense of adventure and who’s good at what he does. Passionate.”

I wouldn’t waste my time reading all these left wing mags full of “subtle left wing propaganda” that pretend to help women while subliminally brainwashing them.

The only reason she still gets roles is because of her liberal political activism. Ciao susan have a great time in italy cause Obama is too radical to win and Mccain again is the lesser of two evils.

How ironic celebs live lavishly off of capitalism yet spew socialism for everybody else.

The Lovely Bones was such a great book. It left a sickening pit in my stomach for weeks it was so sad. I hope the movie doesn’t suck.

Her political views aside, she nailed it on the subject of men. (And I’m a man.)

will she contribute to the 45 TRILLION needed to save the planet from “evil man made global warming”.

So many good older actresses out there yet time and time again the roles and awards are given to the same Political hacks.

Eat it, lucky you if you managed to avoid her political insanity stay pure.

anonymous, yeah… i try to avoid celebs’ views on politics, if i can. just not interested in what they have to say, because sometime it’s kinda nuts. lol

i don’t understand why people get so mad anytime a celebrity talks about their political views. the media is obsessed with every detail of their lives and who they’re dating, who they’re fighting with, etc…why is wrong for us to know about their views? they know that they’re in a position to draw attention to the issues they care about. i’m not saying i agree with sarandon’s political stances. i just see nothing wrong in her having them.

I’ve never been much of a Susan fan but I thought she was fabulous in Enchanted. Perfect in that role! I think she looks awful on this cover though, mainly due to that illfitting dress. Doesn’t flatter her at all and makes her boobs look saggy.
