“It’s incredible — I’m 60, and I’m playing the romantic lead in romantic comedies! Bette Davis is rolling over in her grave.”

— Meryl Streep celebrates the fact that she's broken the glass ceiling for older female actresses by landing a romantic role later in her career. This Christmas, Meryl will star in the romantic comedy It's Complicated, which tracks a love triangle between her, Alec Baldwin, and Steve Martin. Sounds like we'll soon have to choose between Team Alec or Team Steve.

Just like Diane Keaton, Susan Sarandon, and other women who radiate beauty, experience, and talent, Meryl reminds us that it's possible to be fierce at 50 and beyond.
