Michelle Pfeiffer was left speechless during a recent promotional trip to Germany - when one journalist described the Hollywood star's body as "old and decrepit."

The Dangerous Liaisons actress, who is currently promoting new romantic drama Cheri, celebrated her 51st birthday this April and insists she is embracing growing old gracefully. But she was stunned when one female reporter criticized her looks in such a harsh manner.

Pfeiffer says, "She asked, 'How does it feel to have an old and decrepit body?' And at first I didn't understand her, I was like, 'Sorry, did you just say I had an old and decrepit body?' and she was like, 'Ja (yes). How does it feel?'"

The actress recognized the woman from a past press conference when she attacked the star's fashion sense - and Pfeiffer responded to the criticism of her appearance by giving the reporter a telling off for her consistently rude comments.

Pfeiffer reveals, "She was the same woman who'd asked me years before, because I remembered her. She'd said, 'Do you think what you're wearing is appropriate?' She was like, 60 and had on a miniskirt! And I said, 'Well, you're the one who asked me two years ago if I was dressed appropriate... (sic)'."
