"G.I. Jane" actress Demi Moore, who grew to love her body as she aged, is gearing up for a new grandma status following her daughter's pregnancy announcement. The 60-year-old intends to rock the title while staying sexy, not minding what critics pan about her.
Since appearing on "General Hospital" in 1982, Demi Moore has maintained her trimmed physique, delighting fans with her ageless look and impeccable performances.
But this did not happen by chance. The secret to looking half her age has always been planned exercise routines. However, there was once a time when she hated making this sacrifice, as it fueled self-criticism.

To the world, she appeared stunning, but Moore was not entirely happy with herself. At 49, the "Ghost" star admitted that she had a love-hate relationship with her body, especially because she believed it betrayed her. As a younger actress, she struggled with weight and was bothered about her diet to have the perfect body.
It all began after welcoming her third child, Scout Willis, with her former husband, Bruce Willis. She racked up a role in "A Few Good Men" and wanted to shed the pregnancy weight to fit into her military uniform.
Moore proved to be a goal-getter. She burned the fat and looked comfortable rocking her onscreen outfit, but her determination deprived her child of getting healthy breast milk, as the excessive workout affected the fat content in the milk.
Although the movie star relaxed a few times, she was still obsessed with having a killer figure, especially when she landed roles in hit films. Before playing Diane Murphy in "Indecent Proposal," Moore's exercise intensified. She recalled:
"I doubled down on my already over-the-top exercise routine. I cut out carbs, I ran and I biked and I worked out on every machine imaginable."
Following her role in "Striptease," the actress who suffered pneumonia earlier continued to drill herself by training harder and slashing her diet.
In her "Inside Out" memoir, the author acknowledged that she suffered from eating disorders and the obsession over her body made her sick mentally and physically.
When Moore starred in Jordan O'Neill's "G.I. Jane," she had grown confident in her physique. The onscreen star could not be subjected to her past routines as she had reached her limit.
After giving up the gruesome exercise and anorexic pattern, she focused on self-love and body positivity. Moore chose the gift of freedom, not minding what critics perceived about her body. In her interview with Harper's Bazaar magazine, she shared:
"Letting go of the outcome. Truly being in the moment. Not reflecting on the past. Not projecting into the future. That's freedom. Not caring more about what other people think than what you think. That's freedom."
Demi Moore Is Enjoying Her Freedom
Since making the intentional decision to enjoy her freedom and embrace her peculiarities, the Hollywood heavyweight has been living a fulfilling lifestyle.
Moore, who has earned her strip in the industry over the years, has not only been in the business of loving herself, but she is doing so entirely! The "Striptease" star was excited to turn 60, and by aging gracefully, she has focused on being appreciative of her experiences rather than counting the numbers.
At 60, Moore is not bothered about what people say, as the celebrity often gets trolled for being old or artificial whenever she poses on magazine covers or flaunts her curves. Still, she revealed that the criticism is exhausting.
Surprisingly, Bruce's ex-wife does not allow the fine lines on her face to define her; instead, Moore feels liberated, alive, and ready for more feats!
As she braced to celebrate the big 60, Moore, a fashion lover who shares close realtionship with a few notable designers, teamed up with Andie, an inclusive swimwear brand — introducing a new capsule collection inspired by her bikini designs, including vintage styles.
The Demi Moore x Andie project debuted in July 2022 with ten new swim pieces featuring classic swimwear, one-pieces, swim skirts, and over-the-waist two pieces at attractive prices, racing from $75 to $155. Funnily enough, her inspiration was also from a lack of body confidence. The 60-year-old proudly admitted:
"For me, a big part about what was inspiring about this Andie collection was thinking about the things that women feel sensitive about, whether it's their tummy or other areas of the body."
Her quest to make women feel attractive or desirable was also directed to women her age because their reality is often shrouded in a lack of confidence as they age. She imagined having a line that would- be appropriate for older women, allowing them to enjoy their curves while creating security through the styles.
Moore worked hard alongside the Andie team, traveling to the French Rivera for the design's campaign photo shoot, where she unapologetically flaunted her trimmed physique, basking under the sun's rays.
The actress launched her swimwear project precisely a year after her girls' worked with Andie on its Together campaign. Moore had joined her daughters posing in a white one-piece swimwear on the shores of a beach.
These days, she is still conscious about her body; however, what occupies her time is dancing, acting, and posing for photos while she inspires body positivity among older women.
Demi Moore Is Yet to Become a Grandmother
At 60, Moore is not bothered about what people say, as the celebrity often gets trolled for being old or artificial whenever she poses on magazine covers or flaunts her curves. Still, she revealed that the criticism is exhausting. She revealed:
"It wears on you. To be constantly criticised is exhausting. You're still a human being. Sometimes there's a little irritation, and I wonder if I wouldn't rather be living in Idaho."
Despite being bullied more than once about her looks or age, the actress continues to stun fans with several posts, posting snaps in bikinis and outdoors. Among her recent posts, Moore showed fans how eager she feels to be welcoming her and Bruce's first grandbaby soon.
She expressed being overjoyed for her daughter, Rumer, who is expecting a child with her boyfriend. To announce the news, the soon-to-be grandmother shared photos of her daughter's baby bump and captioned it, "entering my hot kooky unhinged grandma era."
But while Moore waits excitedly for her grandma era to begin, she continues motivating women worldwide by acting optimistic, sharing her life experiences, and celebrating older women with her fashion sense.
