'Because that's what I did - I kept on going and I overcame my fears and got over my insecurities.' The Titanic actress added.

'What is so gorgeous about being the age I am is that all the ridiculous angst I might once have felt about having a bit of cellulite, or being a bit puffy in the face, or whatever, has evaporated,'

'I simply can't believe I ever spent any time wasting my life on that nonsense.' She added.
