Skemmtikrafturinn og fyrirsætan Christie Brinkley fer sínar eigin leiðir í flestu og á 66 ára afmælisdaginn sinn hoppaði hún upp úr köku í atriði sínu í sirkusnum í New York-borg.

Brinkley ber aldurinn vel og er í fullu fjöri í skemmtanabransanum í Bandaríkjunum. Á síðasta ári tók hún þátt í þáttunum Dancing With The Stars. Hún segir að síðasta ár hafi verið henni mjög gott. „Með aldrinum kemur viska og sjálfsöryggi sem mér finnst frelsandi. Ég veit líka að mér líður best þegar ég lít eins vel út og mér líður,“ skrifar Brinkley í færslu sinni á Instagram.

Brinkley öðlaðist mikla frægð á áttunda áratugnum þegar hún prýddi forsíðu Cosmopolitan.

In 1977 this bathing suit caused a stir! At the time all the bikinis were low slung on the hip.This high leg cut made the hip a new erogenous zone. I couldn’t figure out how to put it on as just one string holds it all together! Francesco Scavullo shot all the covers for #cosmopolitan back then . He had a big umbrella with a string that ran from the middle of the umbrella which contained a light to the tip of your nose . You were in perfect light at the end of that string. They did not have retouching back then so they really perfected the make up and every strand of hair. I remember I was worried that I looked fat. I’m so glad that today our industry appreciates all shapes and sizes so we can just focus on being healthy. Not cookie cutter. Still there is something in some young girls that often makes them feel they just don’t measure up . I was one of them. I look back at these and think that worry was such a waste of time. If only the perspective we gain with age that alleviates the worries, could be passed on and absorbed by the younger generation ...but I do think shifting the focus to feeling great is a giant step in the right direction. Just thinking out loud as I sift thru a few photos . Wishing everyone a great day ( and decade! ) #1977 #kamali #swimsuit #cover #christiebrinkley #cosmo #confidence #bodyimage
