Michelle Pfeiffer hates the term cougar

New York (ANI): Hollywood actress Michelle Pfeiffer hates being called a cougar. Although the Batman Returns actress plays the role an older woman who has a romantic involvement with a much younger man in her new film Cheri, Pfeiffer insists she hates the term.

"I so hate that term! Colette wrote these novels [about older women with younger men] so long ago, but even today they're ahead of their time in the way we perceive women's power and sexuality," the New York Post quoted her as telling InStyle magazine.

The 51-year-old also doesn"t have any qualms undergoing plastic surgery. "Well, I think your face should still move. And you should be recognizable to your friends," she said. “One actress I knew years ago, a really lovely person, had some stuff done, and literally, every time I run into her now I don''t recognize her. Every time!" she said.
