Demi Moore's new horror film, “The Substance,” is making headlines for its poignant portrayal of an aging starlet who will stop at nothing to stay young, but in an interview with CBS Sunday Morning on September 22, the “Ghost” star actress empathized with her role She admitted that she can.

The 61-year-old actress recently opened up about the intense pressure she faced to lose weight after giving birth to her second daughter, Scout Willis, in 1991.

Moore, who lived in Malibu with then-husband Bruce Willis, said she embarked on an extreme post-baby weight-loss journey, biking 30 miles from her home and back to film “Indecent Proposal.”

“I think [Scout] was five or six months old when we did that shoot,” she told the news program.

“So we had to feed her through the night, get up in the dark with a headlamp with a trainer, bike to Paramount, go on location or wherever, and shoot all day, usually 12 hours a day, and then we had to start all over again.”

The star admitted that “just the thought of what I did to my body was so crazy, so ridiculous,” adding, “I was putting so much pressure on myself.”

As for being a woman in Hollywood, Moore said, “I've been told to lose weight,” and described the experience as “embarrassing and humiliating.”

Now in her 60s, the Charlie's Angels: Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle actress said that now that she is in her 60s, “I look back and think, ‘Was it really that important?’ I think it probably wasn't.” Now that she is in her sixties, she has broadened her perspective a bit. Maybe it wasn't."

She also says that she ‘didn't think it was that important’

but ”it was important to me.

At the time, however, Moore felt that getting back in shape was “everything.”

These days she is a mother of three and grandmother of one (her oldest daughter Rumer has a one-year-old daughter, Luitta). She told “The Jennifer Hudson Show” on September 20 that she only gives parenting advice when asked.

“I am happy to share my experience, strength, and hope,” Moore said. 'But if not, it is better to simply remain silent.'

As for the 61-year-old's body image, the Hollywood icon said she tries to focus on the positive.

“One day I look and I'm like, 'Wow, that's pretty good. ' And then one day I dissect myself and catch myself in excessive focus, you know, on things I don't like."

However, she told CBS.

But she said she can “catch” herself when she gets too negative. 'Oh, I don't like that loose skin. But that's reality. So I'm going to make the best of what I have as opposed to going after what I don't.'
