However, as of late, Brenda’s been juggling a busy schedule. And when it came to new movie The Last Showgirl, which she appears in opposite Pamela Anderson and Jamie Lee Curtis, she admitted she was hesitant to take on the role as she navigated life as a mother and working actress.
“I had two pregnancies in the same calendar year. It was a lot,” Brenda told Bustle. “Once I stepped into motherhood, it made me question a lot: my place in this industry, my place as a woman, ageism in this industry, society’s pressures of what beauty is, what being young is. Things that I’d never questioned before.”
