THIS may come as a shock, but there’s a string of successful female stars older than Rose Byrne who still have endorsement deals.
The 37-year-old Australian actor was given the boot from high-end accessory brand Oroton this week with management saying they would replace her with “younger influences” — and presumably less expensive ones.

Byrne, who has a one-year-old son Rocco, was first signed to Oroton in 2014.
The unexpected announcement has caused a stir in the fashion world, particularly due to the fact that Byrnes is still relatively young compared to other big names that still hold contracts.
NICOLE KIDMAN
At the age of 49, Nicole Kidman added another notch on her belt when she became the face of Neutrogena in February.

“Nicole embodies the true spirit of the women that we are committed to everyday, their passion, strength and focus are what makes Neutrogena women so special,” Group Marketing Manager of Johnson & Johnson Pacific, Carla Speeling, said at the time.
“Nicole will help us encourage women to embrace their beauty through the lens of skin health and empower women to see what’s possible with Neutrogena.”
The star is already an ambassador for iconic perfume Chanel No. 5, which is believed to be the highest selling fragrance in the world.
She reportedly earns $4 million a year off the deal, which was first struck in 2003.
CHARLIZE THERON
Oscar winning actress Charlize Theron, 41, has represented Dior’s J’adore perfume for 11 years. She reportedly signed a $5 million a year contract back in 2004 and continues to be an ambassador for the hugely successful brand.
The Hollywood starlet also had a brief contract with Dior’s arch rival, Raymond Weil. She was given a huge compensation bill when she was caught wearing a Christian Dior watch when she was meant to be representing the Swiss watch company.
LAUREN HUTTON
Age is no barrier for 73-year-old Lauren Hutton, who has proven her supermodel credentials are as strong as ever in a new campaign by a renowned Italian fashion brand.
The seventies supermodel became the face of Bottega Veneta’s spring/summer 2017 campaign in February, the Telegraph reports.
Hutton was one of the world’s highest paid models at the time and has appeared in 41 Vogue magazine covers.
JANE FONDA
Two-time Academy Award winner Jane Fonda will turn 80 this year, but the actress is still radiant as a spokesperson for French cosmetics company L’oreal Paris, where she works as the face of Age Perfect.
“Age has long been seen as a pathology. I see it not as pathology, but as potential,” Fonda said.
“It means growing more self-confident, more forgiving of yourself and others and above all staying interested and taking care of yourself. If I look good for my age it’s because I’ve stayed curious and healthy.”
HELEN MIRREN
At 71, Helen Mirren is still the picture of beauty.
In L’Oreal’s new skinwear campaign, the stunning actress encourages women to “reveal a little more” of themselves and flaunt their assets.
She has also been a longtime supporter of the luxurious Mandarin Oriental resorts.
ANDIE MACDOWELL
It seems all mature actresses end up doing a stint for L’Oreal. Timeless beauty and original Tarzan star Andie MacDowell, 58, is an ambassador for the brand.
She also uses her position as a brand ambassador to support the Research Fund Against Ovarian Cancer as well as UNICEF and the ENOUGH Project, which fights against genocide and crimes against humanity.
SUSAN SARANDON
Actress turned activist Susan Sarandon looks sensational at 70.
The Academy Award winner — who has appeared in The Rocky Horror Picture Show and Malcolm in the Middle — joined L’Oreal Paris last year and continues to represent the brand.
“Susan is a cinematic icon. She is strong, charismatic, and talented and has a compelling sense of self. Her outspoken activism, captivating film work, and authentic charm continue to inspire women to be fearless and believe in their convictions. She is a real woman of worth inside and out,” L’Oréal Paris president Cyril Chapuy said.
JENNIFER ANISTON
Friends star Jennifer Aniston, 48, is the ultimate working woman, as shown in her promotional material for SmartWater, a premium line of zero-calorie, vapour-distilled water with electrolytes for taste.
She has also been the face of beauty brand Aveeno since January 2013, where she replaced the brand’s previous spokeswoman, Danielle Van Grass.
ANGELINA JOLIE
Outside of acting, Angelina Jolie is recognised for her important humanitarian work. However, the 41-year-old has just landed a huge new role with French perfume and cosmetics company Guerlain, according to the Telegraph.
This isn’t the first time the Hollywood star has represented a beauty brand. Jolie was also the face of Shiseido in 2007.
HALLE BERRY
Halle Berry doesn’t just strut around in sexy catsuits — the 50-year-old actress joined Revlon in 1996 and continues to represent the brand.
She was recently joined by Gwen Stefani, 47, who was chosen as a brand ambassador in January.
Berry has also modelled for Versace’s spring/summer campaign in 2006 and Harry Winston’s campaign in 2007.
