The gassy audition forHoly Terrorwasn’t the last time Shields faced a body-related snafu. In January, the actress and author shared the “huge mistake” she once made surrounding her iconic eyebrows.
“Itried dyeing them once, and it was a huge mistake, because they were so dark. I looked crazy," Shields told PEOPLE at the time.
Yet the experience didn’t deter her from finding other solutions to her brow woes. “I’m open to all of it," she added.

Shields will next star inMother of the Bride, a rom-com fromNetflix. She plays Lana, a single mom who gets the surprise of her life at the destination wedding of her daughter Emma (Miranda Cosgrove) — who’s marrying the son of Lana’s former college sweetheart, Will (Benjamin Bratt), who broke her heart decades ago.
Aside from starring inthe movie, Shields is also a producer — and gives a lot of credit to directorMark Waters, Netflix and the company’s Director of Original Film, Christina Rogers.
“[Christina has] been the champion of really pushing and standing behind these stories for women over 40to be in a rom-comthat’s not just all … yes, we’ve got the focus on the young, beautiful, fresh love, and we want that, but she’s not overlooking my demographic. And to have that wish fulfillment of another chance at love and all that,” Shields recently told PEOPLE.
Mother of the Brideis on Netflix May 9.
