Myleene Klass is nearly 40, and she's living proof that growing older doesn't mean abandoning your sexy side.
The accomplished pianist is as bold as ever, clapping back at critics who slam her for stripping down in photoshoots.
"People try to tell me all day long, ‘I don’t like your hair’, ‘Why have you got your a*** out?’" she told The Sun.
"I’m like, ‘Sorry, your opinions do not pay my mortgage, therefore they are null and void’." We love her attitude!
Myleene recently launched a new fitness DVD and says that no hater is going to hold her back.
“My body has made two amazing children, I’m nearly 40 years old, I can play the piano — you can say whatever you like to me but can you play a Rachmaninoff concerto?” the British singer remarked.
She added, "Whatever you want to say to me, these hands earn and graft for my kids and for myself and that gives me self-gratification."
As mum to 10-year-old Ava and six-year-old Hero, Myleene hopes that she is leading her daughters by example.
“You get one life, one chance at this," the mum-of-two noted, "I’m not wasting it and I’m not going to sit in a corner and worry about what some troll who has never met me thinks.
“I love that I don’t want to waste a single day. I’ve got two kids to raise and I want them to see a badass mum. I don’t want them to see some snowflake.”
Myleene also took the opportunity to speak out against fad diets. She says that her dedication to fitness shows that she isn't a 'quick fix kind of girl'.
"I’m horrified that some people have been told such mistruths, because that’s feeding on people’s fear and that’s feeding on people’s insecurities," the 39-year-old
“I’m a mum, and you don’t do that to people and you don’t do that to women. Women boss the world.
“It’s a cruel way to lure somebody into feeling good about themselves — and they should feel good about themselves already.”
We couldn't agree more!
