Demi Moore questioned beauty standards with new movie and felt able to conquered judging herself over her looks

Demi Moore questioned beauty standards with her new film.

The 62-year-old actress has had a career in Hollywood for more than three decades but admitted that as she was taking a break from her usual type of genre with the new horror movie 'The Substance', she was able to "celebrate" her true personality and examine the "judgement" she held upon herself.

She told Britain's Hello magazine: "I don't know if it changed my perspective I think it was a reflection of the beauty standards that have been in place.

"It's a lot of what we, as women, have agreed to, with the idea that in ageing, you are sidelined, or less desirable or less valuable.

"I don't think it's necessarily the truth, but I think there is a collective consciousness [that believes such tropes].

"Doing this film allowed me to look at those areas of judgments I was holding against myself, where I was holding myself to standards that were not necessarily realistic, versus the beauty of focusing on and celebrating all that I am, versus focusing on all that I'm not"
