There’s Nothing Wrong Being Sixty, I Just Can’t Believe It, Says Courteney Cox

The subject of aging has never been louder than it is today. Some embrace this new phase of life effortlessly while others face numerous challenges. 

Just like ordinary people, celebs too face their fair share of challenges while embracing this new phase. For instance, Courteney Cox who will be turning 60 soon says that she can’t believe that she’s turning 60.  “Oh God, it's so hard to even hear or say. I can't believe it. There's nothing wrong with being 60, I just can't believe it. Time goes so fast,” she told Sunday Times. 

Growing old is not so bad after all according to the actress! Courteney says that she has turned more grounded as the years have flown by. “I've learnt so much in my life -- what to enjoy, what to try to do more of and what to let go of”, she expressed. 

That said, Courteney also admits that in real life she was still chasing youthfulness. She freaked out when she started looking older. Even though she turned to injections and cosmetic surgeries, it didn’t improve her appearance. 

“And I didn't realize that, oh sh*t, I'm actually looking really strange with injections and doing stuff to my face that I would never do now”, she revealed.
