Actress Emma Thompson was stunned when her daughter told her she was too old to have blonde hair. The Nanny McPhee actress recently dyed her tresses from brunette and while she likes them, 10-year-old Gaia wasn’t impressed.
The 50-year-old star - who is married to actor Greg Wise - said, “She says, ‘It’s got to go,’ and I say, ‘Look Gaia, I am only 50, I will get rid of it when I’m a bit older,’ and she says, ‘You are too old for blonde hair, mum.’”
However, Emma is adamant the blonde tresses will stay but admits there will come a point when she can no longer carry off the look: “When I am about 60 I will just shave my hair off and go salt and pepper. You can’t have blonde hair at the age of 60.”
The Love Actually star has previously admitted she likes getting older because she feels more relaxed about her career. “I feel that my age and station give me a certain amount of leg room. I’m not cramped by fear of failure or I think it would be good to fail. I’ve done it spectacularly from time to time. I think it’s a help getting older because you worry so much less about that.”

Emma Thompson credits “rain” with her youthful appearance. The ‘Last Chance Harvey’ actress - who turned 50 last May - says she finds the wet weather in Scotland has unexpected benefits for her skin. When asked her secret to looking young, Emma said: “I think Scotland’s got a lot to do with it, I spend a lot of time up there and it rains a lot, which is good for the complexion.”
The British star also insists on finding the time to exercise wherever she is, regardless of the facilities. She explained: “I make sure I take regular exercise, I do anything I can lay my hands on, if I can’t go to a gym like last weekend, I just put on my iPod and my trainers and trot around in the garden, whatever I’ve got time for I’ll do.” However, Emma admits it takes work and discipline to stay in shape and would love to be able to have no restrictions on her diet. She added: “If I had a super power I’d like to be able to eat and eat whatever I wanted without getting fat.”
