Susan Sarandon is perhaps one of the most iconic actresses of her generation. Apart from holding her own on screen, the actress is known for never holding back in real life either.

So when people started questioning her decisions, she decided to school them.

Susan Sarandon has had an impressive career in Hollywood and is still going strong. Her role as Janet Weiss in the 1975 cult classic musical film The Rocky Horror Picture Show cemented her worth as a talented actress. After that, she went on to star in numerous movies, which earned her critical acclaim, including the much-loved Thelma & Louise. She received a nomination for Best Actress at the Academy Awards for her portrayal in the film. The actress ultimately earned an Academy Award for her role in Dead Man Walking.

The actress has always been a proponent of body positivity and always likes to express herself with her fashion choices. She has quite an unapologetic personality and is vocal about the causes she supports.

During a red carpet event, Susan Sarandon sparked controversy by wearing a bold outfit — a white jacket paired with a black bra. Some called it “totally inappropriate,” but instead of engaging in back-and-forths, Sarandon let a picture speak. She posted a vintage photo of herself in her underwear, proudly embracing her body. It was a bold move that silenced critics and reaffirmed her stance: no one else gets to define what’s “appropriate” for her.

Sarandon has always been candid about aging. In an interview, she noted that with age comes clarity: “When you understand time is precious, you stop wasting it on small stuff and surround yourself with people who are curious, brave, and alive.”

As for beauty secrets? Hers are simple — laugh often, eat well, exercise, avoid the sun, and yes, a great glam team doesn’t hurt!

Susan Sarandon doesn’t follow trends or appease critics. She walks her own path unapologetically. What’s your take on her fearless response?
