Carrie Coon, known for her roles in 'The Gilded Age' and 'Fargo', discusses the impact of ageism in Hollywood during her interview with Glamour. At 44, she feels her choice to age naturally, coupled with a lower voice and lack of cosmetic procedures, has led to her being cast in older roles. Coon emphasizes the importance of women using their voices confidently, critiquing the cultural pressure to conform to youthful beauty standards. She advocates for authenticity, suggesting it holds more power than any cosmetic enhancements, though she acknowledges societal challenges in embracing natural aging.
"We all have a way we present in the world. The perception of me is that I am verbal, intellectual. My voice is lower, and I don't have Botox, so I tend to play older than I am."
"Authenticity is more evocative than any kind of engineering you might consider doing to your face or your body. Now, this is not the message coming from culture."
