Demi Moore said she has come to a ‘joyous acceptance’ of aging while at the 34th Annual Gotham Awards in New York City.

The 62-year-old actress got candid about what growing older means to her and how she shakes off self ‘judgement’ at the star-studded film awards ceremony held at Cipriani Wall Street on Monday.

She flaunted her timeless beauty and incredible figure in an elegant, deep purple corset Dior gown that teased her cleavage.

Her dark locks were let loose, cascading over her shoulders while modeling a Bulgari diamond necklace that framed her chest.

While catching up with People Magazine, Moore revealed that ‘over the course of my whole life,’ she found it formal to place ‘judgment against myself.’

‘I can look back and go at 20, at 30 I was finding things that weren’t good enough,’ she told the outlet. ‘My relationship with [aging] now is much more in a joyous acceptance.’

‘Of course there’s things that you go, “Oh I wish that was not that way,” but in terms of the whole, I see myself and the fullness of who I am as opposed to just the external idea of who I am,’ the mother-of-three added.  

Moore was nominated for outstanding lead performance for her role in sci-fi film The Substance at this year’s ceremony.

Other stars at the event included the likes of actresses Zendaya, Aubrey Plaza and Maisy Stella.

Coming to terms with the inevitability of aging is not the only emotional battle Moore has dealt with — earlier this month, she got candid about having developed an eating disorder amid her successful Hollywood career.

She told Elle Magazine about her ‘obsession’ with ‘working out’ that consumed her for ‘five years’ after she was ‘humiliated’ by producers who told her to ‘lose weight.’

Just weeks ago, she recalled the ’embarrassing’ moment, claiming one of her producers ‘pulled [her] aside’ telling her to lose weight ‘multiple times.’

‘I internalized it,’ she said of the exchange with the unnamed producer. ‘It moved me to a place of such torture and harshness against myself, of real extreme behaviors, and that I placed almost all the value of who I was, on my body being a certain way.’

She explained that experience was ‘just one thing’ that fueled the ‘torment I put myself through when I was younger.’

Now, the brunette beauty she has healed that part of her life and is working on her insecurities — and she is grateful to have a career in acting.

Moore initially climbed the ranks in the industry back in the 1980s and 1990s and was regarded as sex symbol for her fearless attitude toward appearing nude on screen.

In her recently released film, The Substance, she broke her own rules and filmed a full-frontal nude scene.

She told the magazine that she initially was not a fan of the scene after watching in in postproduction, but did not insist on any changes.

‘It’s like, ugh, it bugs the s*** out of me,’ she said. ‘I didn’t ask for any adjustments because I knew it was in service of something that was more important than me.’

‘It felt like any hardship, any exposure of my own insecurities, would be worth it if I was part of bringing forward the conversation,’ she said of the film’s depiction of high expectations surrounding older women.’
