We think that what we love most about the summer is how it brings all the hot, young, sexy celebrities out the beach to frolic in their bikinis. You know, girls like Helen Mirren. Wait ... is this the same Helen Mirren who won an Oscar for playing Queen Elizabeth (the old one) and turns 63 years old this month? Because ... dang. She actually looks really good in that two piece! Those aren't even Photoshopped glossy magazine abs either! We guess that's why she's Dame Helen Mirren to you commoners.
