Zellweger insists turning 40 hasn’t affected her career

LONDON - Renee Zellweger, who celebrated her landmark 40th birthday in April, believes her quirky appearance will always land her roles, regardless of her age.

Asked if she had noticed more exciting parts drying up, she said: “It’s so hard to comment because I don’t see it. I don’t know. I’m so spoiled with respect to the experiences I’ve had and the opportunities I’ve had that I don’t see it. I’ve never been that girl who is dependant on how fabulous my hair is or my stature or that I look good in order to work. So I don’t really think about it in those terms.”

The actress insists the only bad thing about turning 40 is that people are expecting her to feel differently about life, reports contactmusic.com.

She said: “I’m so sad that everyone keeps pointing to this birthday, ‘You had this birthday, how do you feel now?’ I’m thinking, ‘I feel nothing different’.”
