Movie star Heather Graham, 55, rocks string bikini on holiday in Italy
One of the biggest movie sex symbols of the nineties turned up the heat as she holidayed in Sardinia, Italy this weekend. Heather Graham, 55, showed off her ageless figure in a tiny red bikini as she enjoyed a beach day. Famed for her roles in such iconic moves as Boogie Nights, Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me and The Hangover, Graham made the most of the sizzling summer heatwave. Turning heads as she strutted her stuff along the golden sands, the blonde beauty cooled off with a dip in the waves. And the actress looks no different than she did almost three decades ago as the iconic Felicity Shagwell in the Mike Myers spy spoof. Graham, who also won praise for her turn as Boogie Nights ' Roller Girl, was in town to attend the Filming Italy Sardegna Festival, where she is part of the jury in the short film competition. But before hitting the red carpet, she made sure to soak up some rays and top up her tan. After plunging into the azure blue waters, she looked like a Bond girl as she emerged from the sea while pulling her blonde tresses back from her face. Graham then dried off on her lounger before slipping on a pair of pink shorts. The movie star has previously spoken about her conflicting feelings about being cast in a string of sexy roles in the nineties. 'On one hand, it was fun, because I grew up feeling nerdy and like I wasn't the attractive girl at school,' she told The Guardian last month. 'I felt flattered; I felt like I was playing a character, like I was pretending to be this attractive actress. Underneath it all, I really felt like this nerdy girl.' She then admitted this came with a downside after struggling to break out of this stereotype with casting directors in Hollywood. 'I related to the awkward romantic comedy heroines more than to the glam characters. Sometimes, I felt like I wasn't being seen for my intelligence or other qualities.' These days, however, she had made peace with being seen as sexy and embraces it. She told the publication: 'I think there's a beauty that a woman can have as she gets older that's like a powerful, sexy beauty. Like, how do you still feel good and sexy about yourself at any age, and just embrace that? 'Because it really doesn't matter what other people think – it's how you feel about yourself. If you feel that you're hot, you feel hot. And I do feel hot.' Last year, Graham wrote, directed and starred in the rom com, Chosen Family. And earlier this year she appeared in big screen western Gunslingers, which also starred Stephen Dorff and Nicolas Cage. Heather also has a role in the upcoming miniseries Carrie, which is based on Stephen King's best-selling horror novel.

Liz Hurley's 'ageing in reverse' after 'subtle but significant' image change
Elizabeth Hurley today celebrates her 60th birthday, but the actress often leaves fans blown away with her youthful appearance and glowing skin but has had a 'subtle' change Elizabeth Hurley's "subtle" transformation has not gone unnoticed. The actress and model, 60, often leaves fans speechless with her risqué social media snaps and stunning red carpet appearances. But as she enters her seventh decade, the Austin Powers star's appearance is somewhat conflicting as she looks worlds away from her younger self, while also looking more radiant than ever. Elizabeth has always been vocal about her dislike for excessive cosmetic surgery and has taken pride in not going under the knife. "I think it just makes you look like you've got filler. It's not my cup of tea," she previously said when asked if she was a fan of having too much work done. But a leading dentist has suggested that Liz may have had a subtle tweak to her teeth, which is relatively unnoticeable. When she first found fame in the Ninties, Elizabeth was known for her charming, natural, gap-toothed smile, which dazzled as she posed for photographers. Nowadays, her smile stands out amongst the crowd and is a testament to her style evolution. Dr Rizwan Mahmood, co-founder of Ruh Dental, believes that Elizabeth's change is "subtle but significant" and is a "textbook example of how dental work can enhance, not overhaul." Speaking to the Mirror, he said: "Elizabeth Hurley's smile transformation is a masterclass in natural refinement. "She hasn't gone for a cookie-cutter Hollywood look. Instead, it appears she's had light orthodontic correction, possibly bonding or veneers, and professional whitening, all while maintaining the unique character of her smile." In her earlier years of fame, Elizabeth's teeth had a slight gap, and Dr Mahmood noticed irregular edges that appear to have been smoothed out over the years. He adds: "It's not about chasing perfection, it's about preserving identity while boosting confidence, and that's exactly what we see with Liz." While many new stars often dazzle on social media, it was Elizabeth who led the way as one of the original It Girls, following her relationship with Love Actually heartthrob, Hugh Grant. The Basingstoke beauty, who frequently showcases her gym-honed physique for her adoring fans, was catapulted to worldwide fame when she stepped out at a film premiere in 1994. Elizabeth joined Hugh Grant at the premiere for Four Weddings and A Funeral – a film she wasn't in – but still captivated everyone's attention. She wore a bold Versace dress, featuring deep splits down the sides, with just gold safety pins holding the black outfit in place. Aged just 29, Elizabeth wasn't a household name at the time, but this soon changed. Speaking of the night, she joked: "I promise I didn't mean to steal the show!" But prior to this, she was actually left rather embarrassed after a string of designers refused to dress her for the event. Speaking in a 2019 BBC documentary, Grant said: "Someone told us: Oh, you can borrow things from top designers. Poor Elizabeth rang some top designers, and they all said, 'No, who are you?' or 'No, we're not lending you anything.'" Eventually, it was Versace who decided to dress Elizabeth, which would change the trajectory of her career. "Only in England could a saucy dress have such an astounding effect," she previously said of the dress.
