At 68, Helen Mirren has a reputation as one of the coolest actresses in Hollywood. She's nabbed an Oscar for Best Actress, as well as countless other awards -- and she's somehow managed to make even stripper shoes seem somewhat classy -- at least for a second.
But here's the thing. When we came across this photo of Mirren at age 25, we were just struck by what a total babe she was. Helen Mirren was, and is, seriously gorgeous.
