London: Veteran actress Jane Fonda is set to be honoured for her dedication to good health by editors at Shape magazine.
Fonda, who has released more than 20 exercise videos since 1982, will be presented with the Shape Your Life Award this month.
"At Shape magazine's 30th birthday celebration in New York on October 26th, I am being presented with the magazine's Shape Your Life Award. I feel very honoured by this. But I am also very cognisant of the people who made this possible for me," contactmusic.com quoted Fonda as saying.
"I didn't realise that timing was on my side. The home video industry was poised, just waiting for a product that would be so popular that people would fork over the money to buy the hardware to 'do Jane' as people came to call working out with me--over and over," she said.
"It helped that I was already a film star. It blows my mind how many millions of people have embraced fitness as an overall lifestyle choice," she added.
