Kathleen Turner was once considered a red-hot, all-American sex-symbol, but these days, the 60-year-old actress is trying to settle in to the fact that she just doesn't have the buxom blonde body she did in her heyday. Kathleen, who has admitted to having a sexual relationship with Michael Douglas on one of their many movies together, has gone on record today for blaming the introduction of the HD camera into Hollywood movie-making as the catalyst for the current culture of Botox obsession in Tinsel Town. Turner says that she has never had any plastic surgery herself and is also desperate to find a full-time lover.
A lot has changed for Kathleen Turner since her days staring alongside Hollywood royalty Michael Douglas in: Romancing The Stone (1984), The Jewel Of The Nile (1985) and War Of The Roses (1989).
During that peak in the 80s, Kathleen was considered such a sex-symbol that it was almost inconceivable to believe that a then married Michael Douglas wasn't trying to sleep with her in 1985, the way he had when he was single the year before on Romancing the Stone (via Daily Mail):
"All kinds of rumors started about us having an affair and he had to do a lot of explaining to his wife. She was furious.
"The truth is Michael and I got on brilliantly [on the filming of Jewel Of The Nile] but nothing ever happened."
That being said, the 60-year-old actress admits that she's hardly had a date since divorcing her husband back in 2007.
While speaking in Star Magazine's December 16, issue, Turner said that she couldn't quite put her finger on it, but a future filled with celibacy didn't exactly appeal to her:
"[Men] don't dare ask me to date them.
"I'm not invited to date very often at all.
"Maybe men just don't consider I'm available or something...Or don't think of me as possible dating material. It's sad."
Sad as it may be -- soon more and more aging starlets will be forced to face a bleak future as the standards for beauty in Hollywood has been tipped forever towards the young since the invention of the high definition camera.
At least, that is what Kathleen is blaming for the birth of the Botox culture in Hollywood.
Turner explained that when you can see every pore and pimple in stunning 1080 HD or better, it is hard to feel anything but bad about yourself (via LocalSyr):
"No one is sexy if they don't like themselves. I don't care how they look.
"When high definition photography came out on film, everybody thought they looked fat and the Botox craze started...It's destructive."
It's hard to know if that is solid life advice about the dangers of cosmetic surgery, or just a bit of social commentary from one of the loneliest famous ladies in L.A..
