Headline: Octavia Spencer admits feeling 'plaintive' in lead-up to 55th birthday

Caption: Taking to Instagram on Sunday, the Oscar-winning actress posted a selfie and offered up some thoughts on how she will be turning 55 on 25 May. ”In almost exactly five weeks, I will be celebrating a milestone birthday, 55!" The first time I thought about it, it stopped me cold in my tracks! 55? Fifty...effing...five? How is that because I feel 25? (Let me be clear, PHYSICALLY, I feel 55). I started to question myself, tried rationalizing all of the emotions that crowded in making what should OBVIOUSLY be celebratory feel cold and dark.”
