The actor has a history of making statements about beauty and societal norms through her cover shoot photos. And her most recent shoot with Bustle is no exception: In one shot, McAdams lounges on a sofa in a black corset, with her underarm hair left unedited. "I've had two children. This is my body, and I think that's so important to reflect back out to the world," she said. "It's OK to look your best and work at it and be healthy, but that's different for everyone." |

A 109-year-old's secret to longevity |
At 109 years old, Vincent Dransfield still zips around town in his car every day, buying lunch, running errands and shopping for groceries. Born on March 28, 1914, Dransfield not only enjoys incredible longevity, but healthy longevity, with a fit mind and body. He says he has never had major diseases, like cancer or heart disease. Curious what his secret is? These are some of the habits he attributes to his longevity: - Spend time doing what you love. For Dransfield, that was being a member of the local volunteer fire department.
- Stay active. Dransfield never did exercise like lifting weights or running, but he moved consistently throughout the day. He got his cardio in by answering fire alarms for 40 years.
- Enjoy what you eat. The centenarian likes Italian food, hamburgers, salad and milk chocolate. He drinks a cup of coffee every day and occasionally drinks beer.
- Stay positive. Dransfield considers himself an optimist. He also has a great sense of humor and likes knowing everybody's name in town.
