Joan Collins says every actress over 35 faces 'ageism'

Joan Collins has said that every actress over the age of 35 experiences ageism. The Dame said that she was once cast in a TV role once when she was 39, but her agent told them that she was 32, as she looked like that, the Mirror reported.

She said that though she got the role, at the end the producer said that had they known she was so old, they would have never cast her. Collins added that the producer told her he wanted a 33 year old and it wasn't how she looked these days, it is how old she was and those days they can just look on Google.
