Formerly full-figured actress Valerie Bertinelli is making headlines this week with her super-sexy, unbelievably toned bikini bod gracing the cover of People Magazine!
The 48-year-old bombshell provides readers with insight on how to lose the pounds and find the confidence to strut their stuff in barely-there outfits at any age.
Valerie is following in the footsteps of many 40-plus celebrities daring enough to model skimpy bikinis for everyone to see. Other plus-40 stars known for rockin’ smoking hot bikini bods include Helen Mirren, Cindy Crawford and Susan Lucci - who have also recently made headlines for their slammin' bikini bods.
We personally think it's great for woman to look and feel confident at any age - but are particularly impressed when older celebs (not that we think 48 is old) are courageous enough to bare their assets in tiny bikinis.
Check out the photos below and let us know which 40-plus celeb you think looks best in a bikini (feel free to mention celebs we seem to have forgotten about):
