Get the Full StoryThe INSIDER Summary:

Megyn Kelly asked Jane Fonda a question about plastic surgery during the "TODAY Show."

Fonda was surprised by the question.

But she expertly switched the conversation back to the movie she is promoting, "Our Souls At Night."

It was an awkward exchange.

Jane Fonda knows how to be direct.

While appearing on NBC's "TODAY Show," the 79-year-old, two-time Oscar winner diverted host Megyn Kelly from her question about Fonda's plastic surgery in an awkward exchange.

"You’ve been an example to everyone in how to age beautifully and with strength and unapologetically," host Kelly said during her hour on the morning show. "You admit you’ve had work done, which I think is to your credit. But you look amazing. I read that you said you’re not proud to admit you’ve had work done. Why not?"

Fonda gave her a steely stare before asking, "We really want to talk about that right now?"

Kelly laughed it off and responded, "Well, one of the things people think about you when they look at you is how amazing you look."

The actress then thanked Kelly and jokingly credited "good attitude" and "good posture" before expertly switching the subject back to "Our Souls At Night," a Netflix movie she stars in with Robert Redford. Both actors went on "TODAY" to promote the film. It hits the streaming service September 29.
