Avoiding the reflection in the mirror is a habit that is typically reserved for those who are vain -- but actress Nicole Kidman says she avoids them for the opposite reason: She's not obsessed with her appearance. Says Kidman, 41, "I'm not enamoured with youth. There isn't wisdom in youth. My own sense of vanity is not that strong. I get ready in five minutes. I'm not a mirror person. But I like to look healthy - the youthfulness is in health. It's very important."

Her idea of a healthy look? A fit look. She goes on to say, "Maybe that comes from my mom having breast cancer. I've seen people suffer. So my desire to stay agile - I want that! I want to be able to run and walk and hike, and get out there. I love being outdoors and I feel caged if I can't get out. To see the sun come up - it puts me in a place to go, 'What a great day.' "

Sounds like she's got her priorities straight -- what do you think?

Helen Mirren showed the world that sex appeal doesn't end at a certain age. When photos popped up of her in a bikini, the internet went into a frenzy -- who knew 63 could look so good?

Speaking of bodies that look great in a bikini, Anna Kournikova seems to added some of her signature curves back to her figure. When she took part in a triathlon earlier this year, many spoke up about how tiny and thin she looked, but in recent photos, her body is more like what we've come to expect, and she looks gorgeous.

Anna isn't the only celeb who's trained for a triathlon -- Jennifer Lopez is training for a triathlon, to take place this October. The workouts are helping her lose the weight she put on when carrying her twins, and she's already looking slender.

Those interested in the lives of the stars will recall that mega celeb Nicole Kidman gave birth a few weeks ago to daughter Sunday Rose, who is no doubt cute as a button. But recent photos of the actress getting into her car for yoga class are raising some eyebrows -- not because motherhood has changed her but because she looks, well, the same as she did before she got pregnant: Thin.

Check out these photos -- from the looks of it, I would bet she is back in her pre-baby jeans already, and the baby isn't even three weeks old. Granted, Nicole has always been thin and she maintained her svelte figure throughout the pregnancy, but do you think this is a little extreme? Or are all the naysayers just raising a fuss because they're jealous?

Whatever the case, it takes dedication to look that good, don't you think?

Nicole Kidman is spinning her wheels -- her bike wheels -- during her new-ish pregnancy.

Kidman was spotted recently in a spinning class in Santa Monica, doing her exercise thing and staying in shape. Her baby bump was very apparent, say the sources who saw this mommy-to-be.

The soundtrack playing while Kidman pedaled away? Songs by Mary J. Blige, Bon Jovi, and Culture Club rocked the place. Her favorite, though, said a fellow gym-goer: songs by hubby Keith Urban.
