Renée Zellweger labels anti-ageing products as 'garbage'

Renée Zellweger has branded anti-ageing skincare products "garbage".

In an interview for the U.K.'s The Sunday Times, the Oscar-winning actress urged people to forgo expensive formulas and "embrace" the ageing process.

"All those ads telling us we don't need to look our real age if we just buy all their creams and their fixes and all that garbage they want to sell us?" she said. "I'm like, 'What, you're saying I'm not valuable anymore because I'm 53? Is that what you're saying?'"

Renée went on to insist that she has no qualms about getting older and actually "couldn't wait" to turn 50.

"I loved it! It made me realise I have no interest in being 23," the Bridget Jones's Diary star continued. "Turning 50 felt like a whole new beginning without the nonsense, the point where you can stop listening to all those voices in your head and all those expectations and projections people have of you and become more authentically yourself. Like, good luck all you suckers out there because you've got to survive a lot to get to my age, and I've earned my power and voice."

The 53-year-old most recently starred in the crime drama series, The Thing About Pam.
