Daniel Craig has vowed to never have plastic surgery - because he doesn't want to look "like a lesbian".
The James Bond star is determined to grow old gracefully, and thinks stars who do choose to go under the knife risk looking like "freaks" when they are older.
He said: "You've got to get on with it. If things start to come out, or things start to drop.
"It's tricky, it really is, because no-one likes to get old and sag.
"People can improve themselves when they are younger, but when you're 60 or 70, you start looking like a freak. You end up looking like a lesbian big sister and that's not right!"
Craig turns 40 next year and admits he is dreading it because he can't cope with landmark birthdays.
He added to Britain's GQ magazine: "When I turned 30 I was a pain in the a**e. Like all of us I was like, 'I don't know what I want to do. I can't commit.' Not much has changed in that respect.
"I will try and celebrate it as best I can because I've got a feeling that 49 is going to come around really quickly!"

I never thought one way or the other about Daniel Craig, but
now I definately dont like him. His comment about not wanting
to improve his looks by using plastic surgery because it
would make him 'look like a lesbian' is derugatory, sexist and
homophobic. It implys that he thinks that anyone who identifies
as a lesbian looks a certain way. Stereotyping a certain
segment of the population shows an unhealty narrowmindness.
I hope gay and lesbian organisations in the UK call him on
the carpet for a comment that was totally unnescessary for
him to make in the first place.
His stand on plastic surgery would have been a noble atempt
to fight an unhealthy practice had he not chosen to stomp all
over a specific group of the female population in his eagerness
to speak out.
