Hollywood actress Jane Fonda is the cover girl of W magazine's upcoming issue. The 77-year-old actress looks beautiful and fit as she poses in a sexy, white, cleavage-revealing dress on the cover.

In an accompanying interview, the actress reminisces about being pinched on her cheeks by her “On Golden Pond” co-star Katharine Hepburn and being asked, "What do you want this to mean?” Fonda did not understand Hepburn's action at first, but Hepburn told her that her persona should reflect what she wants the world to see. “Now I pay attention to how I present myself to the world. I realize that it matters," the actress told the magazine.

Fonda has really worked hard to keep her body fit and sexy, even at 77 years of age. She is also starring in the new Netflix series “Grace and Frankie.” The actress also talks about her 2015 Grammy Awards look, where she stunned everyone by wearing an emerald green Balmain jumpsuit. She said she chose that outfit because she wanted to accentuate her small waist and sexy backside.

Fonda told the magazine that she is confident about what she wants to wear and knows what exactly suits her. So the emerald green jumpsuit she wore was completely her choice because it was something that was “structured, with no frills or bows.” She was also aware that the jumpsuit will “show my waist and bum, because I've always had a good bum."

But the “This Is Where I Leave You” actress is also open about using artificial means to enhance her looks. She tells the magazine that she has undergone the knife but is not proud of this fact. Fonda defends her decision by saying that she grew up in an environment where looks mattered the most to everyone. She was “taught to think” that the only way she would be loved would be if she was “thin and pretty.” Today the actress has maintained her looks for seven long decades but tells the magazine that at her age it is “a hoot” that people are calling her a fashion icon.
