Julia Fox is an Italian-American model and actress who made her acting debut in the 2019 crime thriller Uncut Gems. This movie is what most people remember her for.
Fox was nominated for both Best Supporting Actress and Breakthrough Actor at the 2019 Gotham Awards for her work in the movie.
The actress, who is now 32, recently said in one of her TikTok videos that she cried in bed all day on her 27th birthday.
This is how deep this s*** is for women…In the entertainment industry, 30 is f***ing considered old,
she said in the first of four videos that she shared on the platform.
My BFF Harmony, God rest her soul, came and flew in to see me because she knew I’d be taking it really hard. My friends tried to come in my room with candles and cupcakes and s*** and I literally was like, ‘Get the f*** out! I told you we’re not celebrating! There’s nothing to celebrate!’ And I was, like, such a tyrant about it because I wanted the day to pass and just have it be…
she added.
The actress, who used to be a model, said that she had even asked her friends and family not to wish her on social media because she didn’t want her followers to notice that she wasn’t in her mid-twenties anymore.
I was like, ‘Don’t post. I don’t want to draw attention to the fact that I’m 27. I just want it to pass by like any other day.’ And that’s sad because Harmony, the girl I was with, she died. She’s not even gonna have the privilege of getting older, you know. So we deny ourselves these milestones for what?
she asked rhetorically.
The woman with one child said that she has gotten over her worries about getting older and the many worries that come with it.
She also said that anti-aging products should be illegal because using them makes you feel bad about yourself and never lets you be happy with the way you look.
And if I see another product that says “anti-aging” on the label, I’m suing,
said Julia.
I’m going to sue because I’m going to age regardless of if I put that f***ing $500 serum on my face, and you all f***ing know it! And we know it so let’s stop lying to ourselves. Getting old is f***ing hot, okay? It is sexy. It is probably the sexiest time in life, actually, because being pretty and hot in your 20s is the f***ing trenches, okay? And I’m not going back there.
Julia’s video was watched more than a million times on the platform, and many users, including her fellow celebrities and well-known content creators, gave her lots of positive feedback.
Julia, I love you.

The actual trenches.
Aging is a privilege denied to many,
The Pink Mamba commented.
In her second video, Fox told her 1.2 million followers that she didn’t lose weight on purpose to fit into “sample sizes.” Instead, she said, she lost weight naturally after giving birth to her son.
After I had my [21-month-old son Valentino] I was just, like, rapidly dropping all this weight. I was, like, “What the f***!” I literally was, like, “Do I have a tape worm?” Because my friends know I eat. Like, if you go to dinner with me. I’m not even talking. I’m just eating. Then I order all the desserts on the menu,
she said.
And you still look good!! Period,
American actress Saki Jackson wrote.
Happened to me after my first pregnancy. 13 months post-partum I was underweight, it was weird but I guess that’s how hormones regulate themselves!
