00:09 The 65 year old model turned actress
00:14 returned to her runway roots at Paris Fashion Week,
00:17 strutting her stuff at the L'Oreal Paris
00:19 Walk Your Worth show.
00:21 (upbeat music)
00:23 - I'm just, you know, feel very privileged
00:27 and honored to be here.
00:29 - Andi showed some skin in a silky black bralette
00:31 and high-waisted leather pants
00:33 and proudly rocked her natural silver locks.
00:36 (crowd cheering)
00:39 Your hair is just so beautiful.
00:41 It really is.
00:42 How does it feel to be so celebrated
00:44 for being your most authentic self?
00:46 - I'm really comfortable with where I am
00:48 right now in my life
00:49 and I just wanna embrace the time where I am
00:52 and be as real and honest as I can,
00:55 not only with everybody else, but also with myself.
00:58 - But Andi wasn't the only celeb to slay the catwalk.
01:01 She was joined by Kendall Jenner,
01:03 (upbeat music)
01:05 Camila Cabello, who enlisted some extra help
01:10 for her choreographed entrance.
01:12 (upbeat music)
01:27 Plus Elle Fanning and Helen Mirren,
01:29 who walked hand in hand.

01:34 The show proving age ain't nothing but a number.
01:41 - So it's taking really good care of your body
01:44 and your mind and how you feel.
01:48 So you have to have peace of mind as well.
01:50 So it's a combination of how you achieve all those things.
01:53 I try to have friends that lift me up
01:55 and stay away from Twitter.
01:57 And I eat really well, I juice,
02:01 I'm really health conscious.
02:04 So that helps.
02:05 - Andi's modeling career kicked off in 1978
02:08 after she was spotted by an agent during a trip to LA.
02:11 She quickly became a force in the industry,
02:13 scoring campaigns with massive brands
02:16 like Saint Laurent and Calvin Klein.
02:18 - Modeling's been great for me.
02:19 And I had to take care of myself since I was 19.
02:23 So it made me have money and be able to do what I can do now
02:28 which has been great.
02:29 I can take care of myself and go to class.
02:31 - Fast forward to 2023 and Andi is a certifiable icon.
02:35 ET spoke with her at the Hollywood Beauty Awards in March
02:38 where she was presented with a timeless beauty honor.
02:40 What are three things you do
02:42 to have this legacy that you've built?
02:46 - Oh, wow.
02:47 Well, you know, I think it's keeping everything
02:50 in perspective, realizing what a privilege it is
02:54 to do what I do,
02:56 and just trying to take really good care of myself.
02:58 The intense amount of love that you feel
03:01 because so many other things fall away
03:03 that don't matter to you as much.
03:06 And so you have a bigger opportunity to have a larger heart
03:10 and compassion and love and empathy
03:12 for all kinds of different people.
