Spanish actress Penelope Cruz is happy getting old and says she would never “lie” about her age. “I never want to lie about my age. If I look around at the actresses I admire, they are all women who have not fought growing older, but embraced it – women like Sophia Loren or Audrey Hepburn,” she said.

The actress doesn’t want to give into the pressure in Hollywood of having surgery to stay looking young and is inspired by her grandparents’ attitude to old age, reports contactmusic.com.

“I was very close to both of my grandmothers growing up – they lived long into old age and they were always beautiful to me. They loved life and it showed in their faces. Of course my face will change as I get older, but that’s OK.

“It’s a good thing to be old, because that means you haven’t died yet right? And when I do get older, I want to have the grace to be proud of it, not to lie about it or try to fight it,” she added.

Zac Efron has reportedly revealed that he is attracted to Eva Mendes and Penelope Cruz.

The actor, who has been in a relationship with Vanessa Hudgens for four years, admitted that he finds both Mendes and Cruz very striking.

He told OK: “My celebrity crush is Eva Mendes. I think she is gorgeous and she’s got a great personality.

“I also got really starstruck seeing Penelope Cruz at the Academy Awards. She was walking around barefoot and I thought, ‘God, you’re beautiful!’”

Efron also said that he likes to please his fans.

He explained: “I see the looks on the faces of some of these girls and I hope I’m not disappointing them, and I’m very proud they look at me in that way.

“I just try to put myself in their shoes and understand that feeling.”
