Agreed.

I never understood what the big deal was about people saying some 30 year olds still look like they did in their 20's. *looks at Beyonce & Christina*

Yes. Prince looks amazing for his age. But I still have a hard time digesting how small he is.

Yup.

Let's say if you have two women who are 55. One of them was the typical 55 year old woman and another was jovial and acted like she had stopped aging after she turned 30.

Which one is going to have a more youthful appearance by default?

I've promised myself that I will never forget what it's like to be young.

In all fairness, Madonna looks good for her age. And she's done a very good job of staying physically fit. And in all honesty, it gets harder and harder every year after 40.

I think all in all, it depends on the person at hand. I have a friend who I've met in person when he stopped through town some months ago who is turning 50 at the end of the year, yet he looks like a 35 year old and has the personality of one... yet I know a 37 year old who doesn't look a day under 45 and has had a really rocky hard last few years and the guy seriously needs to get to a gym and enjoy life again. There's a 12 year gap between them but yet as a whole the 49 year old comes off and looks much younger than the 37 year old, and I think it ultimately comes down to their personalities.

Not a metal person but can tell a decent looking person.

Phil Anselmo, formerly of Pantera, arguably looks better at 44 than he did even in his 20s. Of course shaving his head (he used to have really long hair) probably helps give him a younger appearance. Considering the drug use he was notorious for in the 90s and early 00s, its amazing he looks this good.

^That's kinda shocking to me too. :o :o

Her song is so Teen-Pop-ish and the fact that she's "mentored" by Justin Bieber, I thought she's 17/18 or something.

And Nicki Minaj doesn't look 29 at all.

Carly Rae Jepsen - I thought she is 16 because of the song ... or at least I would expect this song from someone teenage, not adult woman.

Thalia

She is about to turn 41 this August, and she looks like 32, 33 IMO

Even on this one from just a few months ago, you can clearly see she looks like 33, 34 IMO !

Image


Same goes with another Mexican Super Star
Paulina Rubio, she's also turning 42, she's turning that age this month, on the 17th actually!

Just a tiny few wrinkles here and there but she does look like she's 32, 33 IMO !!

I think it's too much makeup plus unflattering lighting. Lighting can do wonders or be your worst enemy.
