The 'X-Files: I Want to Believe' star is not worried about reaching the landmark age on August 9, and insists the older she gets the less insecurities she has.
She said: "I'm looking forward to it. I gave myself such a hard time earlier on in my life, in terms of physical regimes and all that kind of stuff. You know, 'Oh, my a**e, oh, depressed, my thighs, oh my this and that.'
"You're often depressed in your 20s but later you start to care less. It's less of a big issue, and that makes you much more content. I don't follow any diets and while I go through stages of doing lots of yoga, I also go through stages of doing f**k all!"
Gillian - who has a daughter with ex-husband Julian Ozanne and a son with boyfriend Mark Griffiths - also revealed she loves living in London, and prefers it to her previous home in New York.
She added to Britain's The Times newspaper: "I enjoy the fact that I can pick my daughter up from school and we have 1,001 things that we can do in a day - there's the parks, the markets. I love being in London, and I love the British countryside too."

It's great to see such a positive attitude in an American actress.
