Courteney Cox is getting real about getting older as a woman.
The “Friends” actress recently took a trip down memory lane and shared a commercial she starred in from the 1980s.
Cox looked like she was straight out of Olivia Newton-John’s “Physical” music video in a commercial for feminine hygiene product, Tampax.
She captioned the video, “My commercial needed an update.”
“Does your life change once a month because off your period?” she asks in the 80’s commercial.
Then the video cuts to 2022 Cox. “Did your life completely change because of menopause?” Cox asks.
“Still using pads?” the 80’s Cox continues.“Still getting hot flashes?” the 2022 Cox interjects.
Menopause can change the way you feel about getting older,” Cox says after hitting her fist on the wall. “Menopause will eat you alive! It’s horrible. Nothing else can do that.”
“Plus, you get the added bonus of drier skin and getting bald patches, now that’s something,” the 58-year-old jokes. Remember, there is nothing good about menopause. It can actually change the way you feel about getting older.”
