Demi Moore Called 'Granny' & Told to Change Diaper after Bikini Pic — As She Turns 60 She's Accepted Her Body

• Demi Moore criticized Hollywood for not working with older actresses.

• Demi accepted her body and is happier than ever.

• She now leads a happy life with her family.

• People often leave negative comments under her photos, but she learned to ignore them.

Hollywood is filled with families that are known for their acting prowess. But although a number of actors come from long lines of performers, a few had to make a name for themselves without the support of wealthy parents. Among these is the "Ghost" star, Demi Moore who turned 60 on November 11.

Demetria Guynes was born on November 11, 1962. Her mother and father split up before she was born, and instead, she was raised by her mother and stepfather. Unfortunately, he had trouble holding down a job, and the family moved around a lot.

After dropping out of school early, Demi briefly worked as a debt collector before securing a role on the television soap opera, "General Hospital." She also had other parts in small films and shows, but her big break wouldn't come until later.

After her time on "General Hospital," the actress starred in a few minor films. She married Freddie Moore in 1981 and starred in the sci-fi horror "Parasite" alongside him. Finally, in 1985, she had her big break with the movie "St. Elmo's Fire."

Demi Won't Look Matronly

After her breakout movie, she continued to star in a few big films, building a reputation for herself with each one. Eventually, she divorced her first husband and ended up married to action star Bruce Willis. The two had three children together before divorcing as well, although the two remained friends.

So, Demi decided to speak out against the discriminating approach the American movie industry has taken to selecting its actors.

As she grew older, Demi started feeling the pressures of Hollywood. Before her role in the film "Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle," she reportedly spent a small fortune on cosmetic surgery, trying to counteract the effects of aging. Eventually, she came to terms with her body, stating:

"But I feel for myself it's about acceptance… embracing it and no longer looking for what's wrong – just being accepting of everything."

Now that she's almost 60, the actress has started encouraging other women not to feel "matronly or not feel sexy" as they grow older. Demi partnered with the brand Andie to design a swimwear collection to combat this sentiment in women.

Taking on Hollywood

Her new swimwear line isn't the first time the actress has stood up for women and their perception in the public eye. When she turned 40, Demi noticed that roles in big films were becoming suspiciously scarce. And she realized that few films star women over 40 for anything other than a mother or a wife. She noted:

"It's been a challenging few years, being the age that I am. Almost to the point where I felt like, well, they don't know what to do with me. I am not 20. Not 30."

Demi isn't the first to complain about the rampant ageism in Hollywood, either. Sharon Stone compared being a 40-year-old at the Oscars to a fossil. Even British actress Charlotte Rampling noted that it is more challenging for older actors in Hollywood than in Europe.

But, despite those hoping to bring her down, an armada of supporters cheered her on.

So, Demi decided to speak out against the discriminating approach the American movie industry has taken to selecting its actors. The actress said she looked forward to "not being defined by a number and instead being defined by my experience."

Demi Still Battles Her Comment Section

Despite the "Forsaken" actress' efforts, many people still look down on older women. Her very own comment section on Instagram can become quite vile and filled with disparaging statements made by hateful individuals.

Some commenters have focussed on minor issues to belittle her, like saying that her knees look old, while others have downright told her to give up. One person, in particular, said, "Ok Grandma, time to change the diaper," in response to a bikini picture the actress posted.

But, despite those hoping to bring her down, an armada of supporters cheered her on. Many fans flocked to her Instagram with comments comparing her to a "Greek goddess." Some praised her swimsuits and said she looked great in them, while others encouraged her with a simple, "Looking great."

The daughters celebrated their family bond on Mother's day by honoring Demi.

In the post, the actress simply showed off two swimsuits, presumably from her designer collection. Demi can be seen standing on a boat in one and lying down on the hull in the next. The image is captioned briefly, "The last days of summer."

Focusing On Family

These days, Demi decided to appreciate the good things in life instead of focusing on all the negative and hateful opinions and commentary. The actress shares three daughters with her ex-husband, Bruce Willis. She is very close with her daughters, Rumer, Scout LaRue, and Tallulah Willis.

Despite Bruce and Demi's divorce, the two have remained close. They decided early on that they would work together to raise their children. The entire "blended family," as Demi puts it, even spent the lockdown together – Bruce and his family, Demi, their daughters, and Demi's boyfriend, Daniel Humm.

The choice to raise their children together turned out to be a brilliant strategy. Unlike many other divorced couples, Demi and Bruce managed to put their differences aside for the sake of their children. Rumer commented:

"I'm incredibly grateful that both of my parents have made such an effort my entire life that I never felt like I had to choose between them... I feel so grateful that my parents made it such a priority that we could be a family, even though it looked different."

The daughters celebrated their family bond on Mother's day by honoring Demi. Later, Bruce was diagnosed with aphasia and announced his retirement from acting. The family posted together, "As Bruce always says, 'Live it up' and together we plan to do just that."
