Charlize Theron is addressing rumors about her appearance, setting the record straight regarding speculation she had a facelift in a new interview with Allure.

"My face is changing, and I love that my face is changing and aging," she told the outlet while discussing remarks she's heard about her looks.

She added, "People think I had a facelift. They're like, 'What did she do to her face?' I'm like, 'B----, I'm just aging! It doesn't mean I got bad plastic surgery. This is just what happens.'"

Her comments coincide with the Aug. 21 launch of L'Or de J'Adore, the latest fragrance in the J'adore Dior family. Theron, who has been the face of the fragrance for more than 20 years, says the perfume is now "somewhat woven into the fabric of my life."

The accompanying ad campaigns for the J'adore fragrances feature an opulent aesthetic with Theron front and center, often in flowing gowns with plenty of glowing skin on display. The actress joked about her children's reaction to seeing billboards featuring their mom in a stripped-down, somewhat risqué look.

"My oldest was just so embarrassed," she told the magazine. "She's like, 'Oh, my God, Mom! You're not even wearing a shirt.'"

While her daughters might feel some normal childhood or pre-teen embarrassment, that didn't stop them from dancing the night away alongside Theron when the trio attended a recent stop on Taylor Swift's Eras Tour.

An Instagram video shows the three pulling off a coordinated dance in the crowd as Swift performs "Shake It Off" for the bustling arena.

"Thank you for the best birthday ever @taylorswift!!! We had such a great f****** time," Theron wrote in the caption.
