Justine Bateman Defends Decision To Age Naturally After Criticism From Looks-Obsessed Trolls

Justine Bateman
'60 Minutes Australia'

The former 'Family Ties' star opened up to '60 Minutes Australia' about her refusal to do fillers or plastic surgery to remain youthful-looking.

Justine Bateman "feels sad" for people who put more time and energy into trying to defy the natural process of aging instead of enjoying life.

In fact, the Family Ties star said she likes seeing the "evidence" that she has lived.


The actor turned author and director spoke with 60 Minutes Australiaabout the criticism she has received about aging naturally, claiming she really didn't notice until she was Googling information while writing her first book Fame: The Hijacking of Reality. The 57-year-old shared when she typed her name, autocomplete inserted the phrase "looks old," displaying the phrase, "Justine Bateman looks old."

But Bateman is unbothered.

"I just don't give a sh*t."
"I think I look rad. I think my face represents who I am."
"I like it."

She said that sure, she could have work done, but it would mean essentially erasing her journey and identity.

"I feel like I would erase, not only all my authority that I have now, but also, I like feeling that I am a different person now than I was when I was 20."
"I like looking in the mirror and seeing that evidence."

Viewers of the interview celebrated Bateman's stance on her natural beauty and aging and thanked her for sharing her message on the topic.











Bateman also said she feels "sad" for those losing out on life because they are too consumed with their looks.

"I feel sad for them. I feel sad that they are not just enjoying life."
"I feel sad that they are distracted from the things that they are meant to do in life... with this consuming idea that they've got to fix heir face before anything else can happen."

GOP Senator Gets Blunt Reality Check After Comparing Trump Tariff 'Pain' To Home Renovation

Montana Republican Senator Tim Sheehy was criticized after he tried to compare the "short-term pain" of President Donald Trump's tariffs to home renovation, a claim so ridiculous that CNN's Kaitlan Collins quickly pushed back on the analogy.

Trump has repeatedly referred to April 2 as “Liberation Day,” pledging to impose tariffs—taxes on imports—to reduce U.S. reliance on foreign goods. He has framed these tariffs as “reciprocal,” aiming to match the duties other nations place on American exports.

Liberal Wisconsin Judge Calls Out Elon Musk In Victory Speech—And It's Everything

Liberal judge Susan Crawford called out billionaire Elon Musk in her victory speech after winning a seat on the Wisconsin Supreme Court, basking in successfully beating her Republican opponent Brad Schimel and ensuring that the nonpartisan court’s narrow 4-3 liberal majority remains intact despite Musk's efforts to sway the race.

Musk fueled the high-stakes race, having poured more than $20 million into supporting Schimel, according to state campaign records. That includes $3 million to the state Republican Party—$2 million of which was donated just last week. Due to state election laws, large contributions must be funneled through political parties before reaching candidates.
