Monica Bellucci on beauty and aging

Overview

Monica Bellucci has reflected on her relationship with beauty and public perception throughout her life. In her youth in Italy, she faced social isolation, school bullying, and street harassment, including attempts at abduction. She often attempted to hide her appearance to avoid unwanted attention before moving to Paris.

Later, at age 61, Bellucci discussed her perspective on aging during an appearance on the program ‘Sept à Huit’. She expressed a philosophy of gratitude toward the passage of time, stating, “one either ages or dies. And I prefer to think of aging. Because I want to see my children grow up.” She described her beauty as a professional ‘mask’ rather than her entire identity, emphasizing the importance of self-respect over the opinions of others.
