In case you were wondering:
Michelle Pfeiffer still looks amazing, and, in a miracle of previously unknown portions, ACTUALLY HAS FOREHEAD CREASES LIKE A HUMAN WOMAN OF 53 YEARS OLD. She told Elle that she doesn’t care if people have work done as long as they still look like themselves, but if girlfriend’s touched her face, whoever did it had a brilliantly light hand, because she looks like a person still. A gorgeous person whose shoes and dress I want to steal. Oh, Michelle. You are wearing a hideous wig in the New Year’s Eve preview, and I suspect you might be playing a mousey person with a terminal illness, but you are possibly the ONLY person in that movie whose face I saw and thought, “aw, I’ve missed her!” Here’s hoping your character at least gets to make out with Zefron before the final gong chimes.

Beautiful, talented and classy – glad to see Michelle is back!
gorgeous as ever
She is unbelievably beautiful, and hasn’t lost a drop of that in the decades she’s been on screen. Love the purple dress, love her hair, am okay with the shoes (def do not love them, though). She’s fabulous.
Even her hands look good. Take that Madge!
And by the way she is holding the clutch, she is clearly showing the fact that her hands
still look great too.
All that vogueing’s gotta be hell on the extremities.
I was totally thinking that she’s the person Madonna’s Photoshop team are trying to make La Madge look like!
Blimey, she’s gorgeous. She’s got 17 years on me and I would almost kill to look as good as her.
I love the lack of Botox. Like the dress and the shoes. Not thrilled with the hair.
Gorgeous and age- appropriate. Can’t ask for more than that .
Apparently, Efron wants to be able to make out with her, too:

Oh my god, I feel nauseous with how embarrassed he will be in a year or two. YOU KEEP THAT ISH TO YOURSELF, KID, it’s the only way to make it through life without dying of shame.
Oh god oh god I’m really tense now. Secondhand embarassment is sometimes almost worse than the kind you make yourself.
I feel your pain and I want to thank you for warning me not to follow the link. Secondhand embarrassment suffers of the world, unite!
I would totally have no-Botox sexytime lurve with her.
Where is this wrinkle? I see none.
Look at the full sizeimage: http://cdn03.cdn.gofugyourself.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/135006548.jpg
But careful, the poor resolution makes her look a bit scary.
Forehead and eye wrinkles! They exist! Is that David E Kelly on the left, btw?
Anyway, I too love the dress.
Forehead creases and eye wrinkles – it’s a Christmas miracle!
She’s lovely, and I covet everything about this look.
GORGEOUS!!! I will always love Michelle.
Love the dress, the purse, the jewelry. Not sold on the hair and shoes, but the good things overcome the bad. Yowza!
Yeah, the shoes are a maybe, and the hair is Farrah Fawcett, but Michelle is beautiful and over 50, and sexy as hell. Please note dress fits, it is age appropriate, no boob hanging out, no “illusion” net, no leg curtains, just pretty/sexy Michelle.
Well you’ll apparently get your wish, b/c, as Matt Lauer gave up on the Today Show this morning, apparently there is indeed smooching! Pfeiffer seemed annoyed at the spoiler, didn’t seem like an act.
Don’t worry, she was kidding in reaction to his spoiler. She and Efron have been talking about the kiss in numerous interviews. Her response to Lauer was completely sarcastic.
I don’t see any forehead creases in this picture. I’m not crazy about the dress; it seems a little juvenile, likewise the hair, and the shoes are just horrendous. Having said that, Pheiffer herself is still gorgeous, regradless of what she wears or how she does her hair, and I have missed her.
I love the dress, purse and shoes separately, but not all together. That dress looks fab, on her. Nice, understated makeup. Read the interview above — rein in it, Zefron! Jeez.
I luv all of her, including her costume choice.
.. definitely a classy beauty.
and yes, Michelle Pfeiffer has had plastic surgery- (just compare her dying scene in Dangerous Liaisons with her first appearance in Wolf. dramatic.) however, as Catherine Deneuve and Helen Mirren prove: if plastic surgery is done by someone, an artist really, skilled enough to leave a woman looking like herself and looking triumphantly her age– then it can be breathtakingly successful.
who knows how much those rare doctors charge, though.. probably not within the reach of mere, plebian-salaried mortals–
I suspect it’s not just choosing a brilliant doctor, but also choosing to have aging only PARTIALLY removed, rather than obliterated back to age 17.
Yes, Karen, that’s exactly right!!!
Hollywood must be lousy with talented cosmetic surgeons, and surely women whose faces are their fortunes don’t cheap out. Seriously, I don’t understand why so many beautiful, mature actresses wind up looking like something other than carbon-based lifeforms.
Oh yeah. That face has been touched all right, but not excessively. From a cosmetic-surgery standpoint, well played indeed.
About 10 years ago, I remember thinking she’d had a not so great facelift or some type of procedure. She then seemed to vanish or a while…or maybe I just didn’t see her and took that as vanishing. She looks better here.
Hmmm…have to disagree. I think Catherine Deneuve has looked (I haven’t seen her lately) absolutely overdonel, from lip plumping especially. I honestly don’t think Helen Mirren has had work. She’s pretty age-appropriate looking to me. And great looking, like Charlotte Rampling, they’re aging with their whole faces at the same rate, so they’re gorgeously symmetric and relaxed looking. .
Are you guys kidding? I cannot stand the little-girlish puffy sleeves. On ANYONE over 10 years old. The dress does nothing for her, the bridesmaid-matchy shoes and bag are too much and the hair is just so-so at best. She IS gorgeous, but not in this photo. Looks like a B lister. She deserves a better stylist.
She looks incredible, but always has no matter what age. I think Michelle Pfeiffer is one of those rare people that most everyone just likes. She’s so likable and humble and sexy all at the same time.
I love her and this is a “Well Played”… She looks gorgeous and totally like herself! I love the dress & the clutch and her skin, hair & makeup are beautiful! She looks 10 years younger than she is!!!
She looks like Christie Brinkley a bit. And both she and Christie are quite beautiful!
Oh, she has Botox, she just has someone really good administering it. She looks abfab. Such a role model! I love her and am also very fond of a movie where she makes out with Paul Rudd and has Saoirse Ronan for a daughter, and the theme is all about girl power, plus womankind’s mostly failed attempts to age gracefully (what does that mean?). It’s got a horrible title: I Could Never Be Your Woman, and was written/directed by Amy Heckerling. It’s cute: rent it!
The sheer overlay and puffy cap sleeves are current unfortunate trends, but it is much more artfully played here than usual. The bag, shoes, ring, lipstick and other accents are subtlety contrasting maroon on my monitor. (monochrome would have been to much). Still, her hairstyle and sleeve puffs make her seem more girlish than womanly. Beautiful womanly mutton styled just a touch too close to lamb.
Purple really suits her. I have no idea if she has had ‘work’ or not, but if she has, it is nice to see it used for gentle maintenance rather than waxrific transformation.
Madge and SJP please note the beauty of subtle make up!
I’m surprised no one has noted that she is wearing sheer skintone hosiery on her legs. It’s virtually undetectable, but she does have hose on. Looks fantastic! More and more celebs are wearing hose again
Hooray! I’m not the only one who thinks flesh-toned hosiery should make a comeback, for those without assistants to wax, exfoliate, moisturise and fake-tan our legs everyday.
YES! During all the Kate Middleton madness I bought some sheer hosiery and I’m gonna wear it, dude, I’m crazy. I don’t care.
I love this AND I love this on her AND I love the idea of 53-year-old women bringing it and looking fabulous.
What in the name of Helena Bonham-Carter wannabes is that woman behind her doing?
Perennially gorgeous.
@ Kathleen Trall.. which reminds me, that woman behind her MIGHT be Marcia Gay Harden ?
@daphne – Holy crap, I think you’re right. I’ve always suspected Marcia Gay Harden was nuts but this seems to be photographic evidence to support that.
Either that or Michelle Pfeiffer, by looking so awesome, is just making MGH self-conscious about any potential neck wrinkles she might have.
Hate the sleeves. They make her arms look oddly T-Rex. Not crazy about the shoes. Her, I love. Pretty color on her, too.
Well I think she looks completely different and nothing like herself. She looks like Chrisite Brinkley. Fashion-wise, I don’t hate the outfit but I don’t think it’s anything all that great either. . But she looks nothing like she used to, at least not in these pics.
Ugh, purples that don’t match. I’d take a nude shoe over that.
She is awesome. However all this awesomeness was totally, but totally wasted in New years eve.. The film might have been easily the worst I´ve seen all year. Btw its definitley worth a fromage post.
I want those shoes in my life right now.
