She’s been around forever so it’s hard to ever imagine a time when Helen Mirren wasn’t in the spotlight, and you’d be right, there never was. Mirren is an absolute legend, here are ten reasons why she is so amazing…
1. Have you seen her?
At 68, she still looks like a goddess.
2. Well she was the Queen.
And not just once…
3. That Oscar Speech
4. Chats with Ellen.
The day after she won the Oscar, she had the chats with Ellen. With what voice was actually left.
5. She’s no stranger to fun.
Who wouldn’t want to be around Helen Mirren as an assassin?
6. Her career
As well as a massive theatre career, Mirren also has in or around 114 credits to her name in TV and film. Yes, 114.
7. That Parky interview.
Awkward and yet, brilliant.
8. And that amazing Graham Norton one.
She licked Paul Rudd’s face!!!
9. Her Style.
10. Telling some drummers to “Shut the f**k up!”
Helen stormed out of a performance to tell some drummers to keep it down. We love her!

11. She doesn’t bring clothes for trips.
Nope, Helen likes to go to charity shops, pick up what she needs for the trip and then bring the clothes back after she is finished wearing them. Genius.
