The Oscar winner continued saying that the reason she has a career at her age is because she achieved success in her life later, when she was 40.


Giving advice to young women, Streep said that she used to hate her nose, but not anymore and girls shouldn't bother about their weight so much as there are better things in life, and that the thing that makes them different or weird is their strength.
