Vivica A. Fox says that she has no problem with aging despite being labelled a cougar after dating several men who have been significantly younger than her.

The actress dated 50 Cent on and off for a couple of years, but shocked everyone when she began dating club promoter Slimm in 2009 who was 20 years her junior. Vivica broke up with Slimm last month and both denied that the difference in age played a factor in the split.

Now, Vivica has discussed age and coming to terms with losing youthful looks. “I’ve always wanted to be older - to be very honest-because with age comes wisdom, or it should be,” she told Real Health magazine.

“My role models are beautiful women, such as Sophia Loren, Pam Grier, Tina Turner and Diana Ross, who all look better the older they get.”

She continued: “I don’t have a problem with aging whatsoever. I have accepted that I’m not a 20-year-old. But if you take care of yourself, you should be able to age gracefully and still always look good. Getting older doesn’t automatically mean you lose your looks.”

Vivica recently said that while she is ready to settle down and have children, she is enjoying being single and focusing on herself.
