“She’s 78 — and wore that?” Critics slammed Susan Sarandon’s outfit, but her clapback? A photo in just her underwear. The image that shut everyone up is in the article belo
Susan Sarandon has never been one to hide—either on screen or in real life. At 78, the Hollywood legend is not only known for her talent but also for her fearless personality and style. Recently, some people have started criticizing the way she dresses. But instead of getting defensive, Susan had the perfect way to respond.
Over the years, Susan has taken on bold, memorable roles — from her breakout as Janet Weiss in ‘The Rocky Horror Picture Show’ to her iconic performance in ‘Thelma & Louise’, which earned her an Oscar nomination. She went on to win an Academy Award for ‘Dead Man Walking’, and continues to leave her mark in Hollywood to this day.
These days, it’s not just Susan’s acting turning heads — it’s her bold fashion. At a recent red carpet event, she paired a white blazer with a black bra underneath. While many applauded her fearless style and confidence, others criticized the look as “inappropriate” for someone her age. One journalist even made a harsh comment, calling the outfit completely unacceptable.
Rather than argue, Susan let a photo do the talking. She shared a throwback picture of herself wearing nothing but underwear, proudly showing her body. It was a clear and powerful way of saying: “I decide what’s appropriate for me.”
Susan has always been a supporter of body positivity and self-expression. She believes women shouldn’t be judged for what they wear—especially as they get older.
When questioned about how she maintains her glow and energy, Susan kept it refreshingly simple: laugh a lot, keep moving, eat nourishing food, and never skip sun protection. She also warmly acknowledged her beauty team, thanking her makeup and hair stylists for playing a key role in helping her feel confident and camera-ready.
Susan Sarandon proves that confidence has no age limit. Instead of listening to criticism, she lives life on her own terms—and encourages others to do the same.
