Helen Mirren

Helen Mirren

Despite being born into a family which had lineage tracing back to Russian aristocracy, Helen Mirren had humble beginnings in life. Her father had to leave his job at the London Philharmonic to pursue a more stable job, and that set the theme for Mirren’s early life too. She was constantly chided by her parents to pursue sensible and stable options which would help her later in life, rather than theatre, which was her passion from a young age. But it seems like it paid off for young Mirren as she’s now a highly revered and multiple award-winning actress! Her gorgeous looks and beauty helped her further her career, but she’s gaining more attention now than ever for her mature charm. But she easily refuted it by saying,” It creates even more pressure on women, and I certainly don’t want to be a part of that. I’m not beautiful; I clean up nice … The fact that I look good at the age I am is bloody irrelevant.”
