Veteran actress Helen Mirren, 72, has posed topless inside a pool.
Mirren, who has been acting for over 50 years, opened up about being called a sex symbol while going topless for the cover of Rhapsody magazine, reports dailymail.co.uk.
In the photograph, Mirren stripped off in the pool, with only the water to cover her modesty.
"I've had to come to terms with it over a long period of time, luckily it's fading now," Mirren said while accepting that she was an object of desire.
Actress Elizabeth Hurley, who essays the role of Queen Helena on British dramedy "The Royals", says all the characters on the show are "very different".
The US-based Indian actress, who found fame with the Oscar winning "Slumdog Millionaire", says unless the debate on diversity extends beyond skin colour, it is "pointless and redundant".
