Is 50 the New 30?

SPY on US: Sneak a peek at our watercooler conversation, cut and pasted straight from our IMs, then join in below.

TheCoolerBlog: so, 50 is the new 30 for actresses huh? Is 50 the New 30?
JerseyGrrrlSwirl: I don't think so
TheCoolerBlog: well, you gotta admit, it's a relief to hear that older actresses are getting more props
TheCoolerBlog: All you used to hear is that the older you get in hollywood, the less work that's available
IPingthere4iAM: still true, don't you think? Teri Hatcher comeback is A FLUKE
IPingthere4iAM: One or two lucky breaks for older actresses doesn't mean there's a shift in hollywood....they are still trying to find the next tarareidamysmartjamiepressley-ish kinda gal to help sell movies to the 18 year olds..all of the oprahs and julianne moores - gorgeous and powerful as they may be -- won't make the machine stop pushing to find the younger stars
TheCoolerBlog: But maybe there are realizing that new talent can't open movies or sell magazine covers the way the more established faces can...
TheCoolerBlog: The Next Big Things like gretchen mol or diane kruger didn't go anywhere

So Far, Older Actresses Like Sharon Stone Have Had Nothing to Fear From Up-and-Comers Like Diane Kruger (Getty)

TheCoolerBlog: And stars like Angelina or Aniston become known more for their romance than their work
IPingthere4iAM: it's not that simple
IPingthere4iAM: Not like Sharon Stone is this actress over 40 that's known for an amazing body of work
IPingthere4iAM: She's known for a full frontal scene
Dishuponthestars: Yeah, amazing body of work.

We Showed You Ours, Now Show Us Yours: Is there a power shift to the older actresses in Hollywood?
