Helen Mirren's Iconic Bikini Snap

In 2008, Helen Mirren, who was 63 then, was photographed in a red bikini while enjoying a beach day in Italy. Years later, she shared in an interview on KTLA 5 that at the time, she was simply trying to "look good" for her husband, Taylor Hackford, who was taking her picture.

The image quickly went viral, showcasing Mirren's ageless beauty and leading to numerous offers for swimwear promotions.

Reflecting on the experience the movie star shared, "So, we were there, swimming a little bit, lying in the sun, and Taylor said, 'Stand up, I want to take a picture of you.' So I stood up, and sucked my tummy in because my husband was taking my photo."

As her husband snapped the picture, Mirren spotted a flash in the distance on the hillside and realized a paparazzo was nearby. Despite her warning, her husband remained unconvinced that someone was photographing them.

"He said, 'no, there isn't, don't be ridiculous! How can they be up there, that's absolutely absurd. You're paranoid!' Of course, three days later, that shot came out!" she noted.

When Mirren appeared on "The Ellen Show," she said as much as the bikini picture looked great, it was all pure luck as she dismissed the idea that she looked like that. "I look at that picture and say 'God I wish I looked like that,'" she admitted.

Helen Mirren explained that she looked incredible at that moment and in that specific picture because she was posing for a photo.

"It was ironic because literally a week before I had been on a beach, a public beach in the South of France with hundreds and hundreds of people around nobody bothered to take a photo, nobody paid any attention," she shared.

A week later, Mirren's husband decided they should go swimming. He likes to swim where there are no people, and so, with great difficulty, they found a secluded place, had a little swim, and laid down.

Mirren then took the camera and took a picture of Taylor and he asked to photograph her. That's when she stood up, posed, pulled her tummy in, and took the picture in question.

But when she told her husband that she had seen a flash, and he dismissed her, she felt embarrassed and humiliated. Still, she was uncomfortable and they left the beach. Three days later, her iconic bikini photo came out.

This encounter left Kidman convinced Fallon wasn't interested in her. "So after about an hour and a half I thought, 'He has no interest, this is so embarrassing.' And I left and went, 'OK, no chemistry,' and I went, 'Maybe he's gay,'" she divulged on "The Tonight Show."
