Dame Helen Mirren Rocks Red Carpet in Stripper Shoes

How do you get away with wearing "stripper shoes" to a red carpet event?  You flash some class.

Dame Helen Mirren will be 68 in the coming days and she just pulled off something that young starlets have tried and failed to do.  Rock stripper shoes at a red carpet event, and not be called "slutty", or "whore".  Part of the secret to pulling off this feat is the number 68, but you could end up being called something worse than "slutty" or "whore", and that would be "sad".  But, I don't think Dame Helen Mirren would ever be called that.  But then, neither would anyone else who started the process with this strong foundation.

But like the rug in the "Big Lebowski", you need something to pull the room together. POW Baby!

If you've ever seen an interview with this Academy Award-BAFTA-Golden Globe-Emmy Award winning actress, you know that she exudes confidence, and that comes out in these photo's.  Now, like I said before, the one of the key's is the number 68, because if she sported those shoes when she looked like this...

...She might not get the same positive reaction.
