Priyanka Chopra has been featured as one of the Beauties of the Year by PEOPLE magazine. The actress dismisses unrealised beauty standards, says looks aren’t everything, it’s the confidence capabilities that matters.

The actor has been featured as one of the Beauties of the Year by PEOPLE Magazine, but, ironically, the actor feels “looks aren’t everything”. She told People in their upcoming Beautiful issue, “In the world we live in, the standard of beauty is not really real, and that’s something that we have done to ourselves.”

From winning Miss World in 2000 to starring in glamorous roles in movies, Priyanka Chopra has always been a diva and fashion icon for many. Working in show business, the 35-year-old Priyanka further added, “I think I realized what all it takes to actually look the way we do on magazine covers and the work we do. That’s when I realized looks aren’t everything, it’s the confidence with which you walk into a room, it’s the ability to do your job to the best of your capabilities.”

Priyanka added her own definition of wellness revolves around her skincare, “The way that I take care of my skin is to make sure to moisturize every day. I take off all my makeup before I go to bed, and it doesn’t have to be really difficult. I think hydration is extremely important, drinking as much water as you can. That is truly the elixir of life.”

The Quantico has appeared on the covers of many magazines, the most recent being for Vogue Netherlands edition. Dressed in bridal grown for the magazine cover, Priyanka shared the cover on her Instagram handle and wrote, “My fairytale. Thank you @nlvogue for making me your first cover girl of the Love & Wedding issue.”

Priyanka, who doesn’t shy away from voicing her opinions, is all about embracing ageing instead of holding onto her youth. The actress is currently focused on building her brand and plans to be an “extremely glamorous old lady, who will always have an opinion on everyone. I’ll be super fun and yeah, (mine) will be the house everyone will want to come to,” she told PEOPLE.
