Description
If you think about it, purely based on her 40-plus-year career, Brooke Shields is the perfect podcast host because she has a story for everything. "This is a new world for me, and I'm really enjoying it. It's such an honor to be this age and still being asked to do the thing that I love to do." With Now What? Shields, after "so many decades" on the other side of the interview, "having no problem answering questions," is now the one asking them. "I've never had a problem being an open book. It's just how I've lived my life,” Shields told Newsweek’s Parting Shot. Part of what inspired the podcast was her lifestyle brand Beginning is Now, which focuses on empowering women of every age and size. "We need to find a way to at least change the narrative around all of this." Despite her incredible work in these new areas, she hasn't totally turned her back on Hollywood. With many projects in the works, she'll next be seen in the HBO Max holiday film Holiday Harmony (November 24). "I like doing those kinds [of movies]. I love comedy. I'm happy when I'm doing comedy. It's in my blood." Shields also opened up about how the media often sexualized her as a child actress in films like ‘Pretty Baby’ and ‘Blue Lagoon.’Listen to our full conversation on the Parting Shot with H.
