Their Beauty Is Like Fine Wine – Classic Stars That Aged Flawlessly
Katharine Ross – January 29, 1940
Katharine Ross is the ultimate embodiment of beauty. Her acting career started in the late a960s when she portrayed roles in feature films like Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, The Graduate, The Stepford Wives, The Singing Nun, Mister Buddwing, Games, Shenandoah, and The Longest Hundred Miles. Her contribution towards the success of the 1976 film Voyage of the Damned earned her a Golden Globe award. She has also won a BAFTA award for best actress, and a nomination for best supporting actress in the Academy Awards.
Even though her acting career has been extremely successful, Ross has been through a divorce four times. She is currently married to Sam Elliott and she has one child. At age 79 Katharine is still a beauty and even though she isn’t as busy as she used to be she still appears in some of her husband’s films including Love Letters and The Hero.
Raquel Welch – 77 – Brow Lift, Face Lift, Approximately $22,000
Actress and singer, Rachel Welch proves that even with plastic surgery, you can still look pretty natural. In fact, one of the hottest women from the’60s and ‘70s made us search for the best plastic surgeons around and have every nip and tuck she had to look like she now does in her late ‘70s – decades younger. The procedures she allegedly had but keeps denying include Botox, brow lift, and a few other lifts. And, since Welch is all about beauty, we are pretty sure she uses all the best anti-aging products there are on a daily basis. Well, with a net worth of $30 million, the actress can definitely afford tons of anti-aging cream and a plastic surgery every once in a while, so, go, go, girl!
Diane Keaton – January 5, 1946
Diane Keaton doesn’t look like she knows how to age. Apart from looking as though she’s still in her 40’s, she also acts like a youngster. At the age of 73, when many other seniors are thinking about living quietly in a retirement community or are actually in one, Diane is out and about and as active as she has been throughout her life. Much of her lifestyle is owed to her successful acting career, with movies like Something’s Gotta Give, Annie Hall and The Godfather ensuring that she’ll never have financial worries for the rest of her life. Unlike most people her age, Diane is pretty popular on social media and posts just as often as teenagers of today, and that takes a lot of energy to pull off!
Christie Brinkley – February 2, 1954
Christie Brinkley has been and continues to be, one of the smartest and most ambitious fashion personalities in the business. Despite her successful career as a fashion and beauty model, she had other plans and created multiple companies, which is why she’s worth an impressive $80 million. Her businesses aren’t the only source of the money in her bank account, however, since her modeling career was highly lucrative. She became a star across the world after her first appearance in the highly popular Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issues and has since become an icon who has appeared on over 500 magazine covers! If that doesn’t end up boosting a person’s net worth through the roof, we don’t know what can. The most shocking fact about this legendary model is that she still looks the same as she did when she started her career.
Donna Dixon – July 20, 1957
Donna Dixon didn’t take life slowly. She shot for the stars as soon as her career started. While most of her fellow students in college were preparing for their future, Dixon chose the path to become a model, and immediately enjoyed success. At first, she represented her home state of Virginia in the Miss USA beauty competition, and would, later on, climb the ranks as Miss Washington DC to compete in the Miss World competition. Donna is as skilled at acting as she is at modeling. She has co-starred in many films including the Twilight Zone with her husband actor Dan Aykroyd. At 61 years of age, she is as youthful looking and as beautiful as she was at the earliest days of her career, leaving us to wonder what her secrets are.
Joan Collins – May 23, 1933
It’s incredible how similar Joan Collins looks to her younger self from a few decades ago. Many women of her age have hair that has turned white, and some may require walking aids, but Joan, even at the age of 85, looks like she is enjoying life as when she was a younger woman. Her acting career began with her role in English films such as A Doll’s House that brought her to the attention of audiences and film studios. Eventually, she left England and moved to Hollywood where her performances in movies such as The Girl in the Velvet Swing and Rally ‘Round the Flag, Boys! enhanced her popularity. Her starring role in the long-running hit series, Dynasty, catapulted her to even greater stardom. In 2014 she was accorded the honorific title of Dame – the female equivalent for Knighthood – by Queen Elizabeth. Her health is pretty much perfect these days, which is probably the result of healthy living early on.
Karen Dotrice — November 9, 1955
Karen Dotrice was born into a family where both parents were actors. Her family environment, coupled with the encouragement of her parents led Karen, not surprisingly, to pursue acting as a career. A child actress, she had roles in some of the most memorable films in history, most notably Mary Poppins, in which she portrayed the character of Jane Banks. She also performed in The Three Lives of Thomasina. Though her acting on the big screen is extensive and very well known, Karen made frequent appearances in live theater. Her acting career didn’t follow her into adulthood; however, and she appeared only in a single movie before she sought retirement in 1982. Although retired, this beloved Disney Legend doesn’t look old whatsoever and could easily pass as a woman in her 40’s.
Belinda Jo Carlisle — August 17, 1958
You’re far too young if you haven’t heard of Heaven Is A Place On Earth, which remains one of the most popular musical hits of all time. Its singer, Belinda Jo Carlisle, earned her fame through her flawless voice and vocal talent which ensured that she has thousands of fans even to this day. Belinda’s career in music started on a very different path as her first steps were as a drummer. She soon realized, however, that singing was where her future lay. When she became the lead singer of the successful all-female rock band The Go-Go’s, she never looked back. She’s aged perfectly and has grown even more beautiful over the years. Having retired from music, Belinda lives in retirement in Thailand.
Connie Sellecca — May 25, 1955
At the age of 63, Connie hasn’t let age catch up to her yet, and we doubt that she’s ever going to. Her highly successful acting career has ensured that she’s able to afford any anti-aging treatment available, and it certainly appears that she’s going for the very best ones, judging by how flawless her skin looks. Connie rose to fame after appearing in long-running TV titles like Flying High and Hotel. Her impressive acting skills even saw her nominated for Best Actress in the 1987 Golden Globe Awards. This beautiful and talented actress has made so many television appearances and performed in so many roles, it’s clear that her choice to enter the world of acting was a brilliant decision – it is precisely where she belonged.
Babi Christina Engelhardt – 1960
Babi may be 59 years of age right now, be she doesn’t look half as old, which makes us wonder if she has some fantastic anti-aging treatments on her side. She’s been in some well-known movies like The Raffle and Demonia, but most of her recent fame came from her admitting that she was in a relationship with the director, Woody Allen. Woody is one of the most famous Hollywood directors on the planet, which is why the media started chasing both of them around – especially since Babi says their eight years long relationship began when she was still a teenager. After a failed marriage, when her relationship with Woody ended, she decided to become a psychic reader, and it looks like she’s content with herself now.
Patti LuPone – April 21, 1949
Pattie LuPone has been acting and singing for all of her life, and she’ll have a lot to look back on once she decides it’s time for her retirement. We don’t know when that will happen, however, since she looks as young as ever, and her voice is as strong as ever. She’s had one of the longest and most enviable careers in Hollywood and Broadway that we’ve ever witnessed and has received many awards for her performances. She’s the proud winner of two Tony awards for her impressive acting in Evita and Gypsy and has even won the prestigious Grammy award for her role in Weill: Rise and Fall of the City of Mahagonny. It’s clear that this actress was born to impress, and there’s no telling how long she’ll keep going.
Rene Russo – February 17, 1954
A good marriage seems to do wonders for people. At least, that’s what Rene makes us believe because she’s aged so perfectly it seems miraculous. She looks like a copy of herself from when she was decades younger, and no doubt, she has access to some of the best anti-aging treatments in the world. Although she’s 65 years old, she doesn’t show any signs of old age whatsoever, and it seems like this is going to continue to be the case for many years to come. Rene has appeared in hugely successful movies like Lethal Weapon 3 and Nightcrawler. Her remarkable acting will likely ensure that she’s never going to go through money problems for the rest of her life.
Maureen McCormick — August 5, 1956
Although Maureen has been in all sorts of careers throughout her life, she’s mostly known for her role as an actress – specifically for her performance as Marcia Brady in the long-running TV series The Brady Bunch. Since then, she’s only seen more success in her career and has kept advancing throughout her life. Apart from The Brady Bunch, Maureen has been acting in shows like The Idolmaker and Peter Pan. Even though Maureen is in her 60s now, she maintains the same elegance and beauty that she’s been blessed with throughout her life and it seems like she’ll look the same even as more years pass. Through her various careers, she’s made sure that she’s never going to face bankruptcy.
Joan Jett — September 22, 1958
Joan’s life may seem like a wild roller coaster ride to ordinary people, and she will definitely have much to think back on when she decides to enter retirement. Her career has been mostly that of a rock star as the lead singer for the Joan Jett and the Blackhearts band. While her fans feel joy whenever they hear any of her music, she’s best known for the album Up Your Alley, for which she received multiple awards. Joan might be 60 years of age right now, but her appearances would have us believe that she’s still a woman in her 30s. She’s recently turned vegetarian and has done a lot of work for the protection of animals – she even joined PETA so she could advance animal rights and vegetarianism.
Debbie Harry — July 1, 1945
Both acting and singing have been an enormous part of Debbie’s professional life, and we have so many reasons to be grateful for this extraordinary woman, as she’s given the world a lot of art to enjoy. Debbie started off becoming the lead singer for the band known as Blondie. Not many groups followed Blondie’s style, and Debbie soon became famous all over the world due to her impressive musical talent and unique style. Her songs were so popular that they rose to first place on the record charts across America and the UK, and the band’s most famous hits are still played on radio stations throughout the world. As for her acting experiences, she has had roles in over 60 television shows and films showcasing her unique talent.
Tony Danza – April 21, 1951
For one man, Tony Danza is just too talented. He has a great career as an actor, comedian, musician, OAP, boxer, tap dancer, and teacher. His popular TV series include Who’s The Boss and Taxi which earned him four Golden Globe awards and an Emmy award nomination.
If you have been wondering what Danza has been up to, he is all down for healthy living and fitness. As judged by his job as Metamucil spokesperson, Danza was down for promoting digestive health, healthy cholesterol, and maintaining healthy blood sugar. His experience with this brand coupled with his profession as a one-time boxer all added to his ability to maintain a healthy and young body. At 68, Danza is still as handsome and charming as ever.
Robert Duvall – January 5, 1931
Did you ever think Robert Duvall was finished? Then think again. Robert starred in several movies and is one of the most awarded actors in Hollywood but his role in Widows seems really hard to forget. It was a role that helped reinstall his already bright image in our minds. With a career that has spanned more than 60 years, Robert Duvall is still standing tall.
The 88-year old has gotten several academy award nominations and won several Golden Globes. In 2015, Robert Duvall had an added honor of being nominated for the Academy Awards for his performance in The Judge and was the oldest actor to be nominated for that category then, until Christopher Plummer overwrote the record.
Heather Mills – 12 January 1968
Heather Mills is best described as a strong woman. The former model is an activist, astute businesswoman, and a media personality. While still modeling in 1993, she was involved in an accident which led to the amputation of her left leg. However, being a determined strong woman that she is, she continued modeling with the aid of a prosthetic limb. She’s an animal rights activist and the patron of Vegetarians’ International Voice for Animals (Viva!) as well as the vice-president of Limbless Association. Mills was also married to Sir Paul McCartney in June 2002 and had a child – Beatrice Milly McCartney in October 2003. They separated in 2003 and their divorce was finalized in 2008. At 51, she still looks as stunning as ever.
Cassandra Peterson – September 17, 1951
Cassandra might be 67 years of age right now, but she looks no different from the days when she appeared as Elvira, the cult-movie TV hostess. This makes us think that she’s got access to some of the world’s best quality anti-aging products, or maybe it’s just good genes? Whatever her secret may be, any woman would love to look that good at her age. Cassandra’s popularity was ignited with her role on the show Elvira’s Movie Macabre, that featured a new horror movie every week. The cult figure of Alvira became a profitable brand in the 1980 and 1990, featured in novels, comic books, and computer, video, and pinball games. In 1988 she even got her own feature film, Elvira, Mistress of the Dark.
J.K Rowling – 31 July 1965
Joanne Rowling or J.K Rowling as we know her is a novelist, screenwriter, film and television producer, and a philanthropist who has received many awards and sold over 500 million copies of her many books. She holds the record for the best-selling book series in history and she’s also the first billionaire author. Although the super-rich J.K Rowling isn’t a billionaire any more thanks to her good-heart, as she gave most of her earnings to various charities, she’s still wealthy enough to have a great credit report. She’s consistently releasing new books on various genres under J.K Rowling and Robert Galbraith pseudonym. The Harry Potter series author was married twice and has three children. Rowling is currently 53 and has been aging flawlessly. With her wealth, we aren’t too surprised she’s looking as good as she is.
Anne Robinson – 26 September 1944
The ‘Queen of Mean’ a nickname Anne Josephine Robinson got while hosting the BBC game show The Weakest Link from 2000 to 2012, is one a lot of people would not forget so easily. The popular television presenter and journalist is most notably known for her mordant presentation style. Anne was among the presenters of Watchdog which she presented from 1993 to 2001 as well as 2009 to 2015. She was married twice and has a child. Her life isn’t void controversies as in 2001 she was tagged racist following her description of Welsh people as “irritating and annoying” when she appeared as a guest on Room 101. She was also accused of victim blaming on social media following her anger about victims of sexual harassment keeping quiet for years before coming public.
Betty White – 17 January 1922
Comedian and actress Betty Marion White Ludden hold the record for the longest television career achieved by any female entertainer. She’s been active for over 80 years and counting and is hailed as a pioneer of television. Betty White is also the first woman ever to produce a sitcom (she produced Life With Elizabeth). In 1955 Betty White was awarded the honorary title Mayor of Hollywood. Her lengthy years as a TV person has seen her receive lots of awards including eight Emmy awards, three Screen Actors Guild Awards, three American Comedy Awards, and one Grammy Award. She’s most notable for playing Sue Ann Nivens on the TV show The Mary Tyler More Show which aired from 1973 to 1977. At 97 years, Betty has aged flawlessly!
Arnold Schwarzenegger – 30 July 1947
The “I’ll be back!” Terminator star Arnold Alois Schwarzenegger is a businessman, filmmaker, philanthropist, politician, activist, former professional bodybuilder, and actor. Arnold Schwarzenegger is famed for the 1982 box-office hit Conan The Barbarian. The huge success of the movie shot him into worldwide fame. He proceeded to act The Terminator and all its subsequent installments and would be the star act in the upcoming Terminator: Dark Fate movie expected to release this year. He has also dabbled into politics, winning the gubernatorial election of California to become the state governor from 2003 to 2011. Arnold also hosted the 2016-2017 season of The New Celebrity Apprentice, replacing Donald Trump. He, however, didn’t return for a new season following criticism from the president. “The Governator” as he was fondly called during his time in politics is aging exceptionally well for a 71-year-old man.
Matt Damon – October 8, 1970
Matt Damon was already one of the highest sought after actors in Hollywood when he was chosen to appear in one of the highest rated films in history, Saving Private Ryan. After that, his career rose up to the next level, and he’s never had to fear bankruptcy since then. He’s been offered parts in famous movies like Good Will Hunting, Jason Bourne, Ocean’s Eleven and True Grit which have been some of the most successful films ever made. He’s also made a whole lot of money by appearing in commercials due to his popularity among the crowd. But being an acclaimed actor is probably not enough for him, as he also has his own charity foundation called water.org!. Pushing 50, this beloved celebrity is still one of Hollywoods best looking actors.
Eric Bana — August 9, 1968
Eric has dabbled in all sorts of acting careers and is also among the most well-known comedians of all time. This Australian born actor has always prioritized his career, and the results of his efforts are evident, given the tremendous amount of money in his bank account. He’s been a voice-over actor in the past and has acted in plenty of famous movies. Most of his initial popularity stemmed from the crime/thriller movie Chopper, after which Eric hasn’t had too many problems gettinga parts in movies. He’s been in films like Hulk and Black Hawk Down which have made sure that his career continued on its successful path. Although he’s in his 50s, it doesn’t seem like he’s aged much at all since his youth.
Will Smith – September 25, 1968
Will Smith is now in his 50s, but he still manages to look like The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, the popular TV series in which he began his career. We are sure that the fact that he’s been keeping himself physically fit throughout his life plays a big part in his youthful look. Will could put any person in their 20s to shame even today. Although he’s one of the richest men alive with a startling net worth of about $250 million, this wasn’t always the case. In fact, back in 1989 he had no money at all and was working hard for his big break when he scored the leading role as The Fresh Prince. That role paved the way for his massive success on the big screen, starring in blockbusters like Men In Black, Independence Day and The Pursuit of Happyness.
Denzel Washington – December 28, 1954
Entering the world of acting might be the best decision that Denzel Washington has ever made. Choosing to become an actor has certainly paid off big time. Denzel attracted serious attention following outstanding performances of larger-than-life personalities in films like The Hurricane, Malcolm X, and Training Day. Denzel has won many accolades and awards throughout his life, some of the most prominent ones being his two Academy Awards for best actor and best supporting actor. He’s also received three Golden Globes while most actors consider themselves lucky to win even one. Throughout his career, his good looks haven’t diminished at all, and we’re sure he’s got some anti-aging formula that he keeps hidden away from the rest of us.
Bern Nadette Stanis — December 22, 1953
Bern does not have the face of someone who’s 65 years of age. In fact, she could easily pass for someone in her 40s any day of the week. We’re pretty confident that she doesn’t need too many anti-aging procedures to keep up her looks since her appearance seems entirely natural. Her career found success due to the TV show Good Times, which saw her rise to popularity, and she hasn’t failed to delight the audience with her acting skills ever since. Even though she’s had to bear the burden of getting a divorce three times, Bern hasn’t let that pull her down. We haven’t seen her much since 2015, and hope she is enjoying life and planning her well-deserved retirement.
Cheryl Ladd – July 12, 1951
Even at the age of 67, Cheryl’s youthful appearance shows that she could continue on her career path for decades to come. We certainly hope she will because her face still lights up the television screen as an American beauty. Cheryl became famous with her first career steps. Her role as Kris Munroe in the immensely popular TV series, Charlie’s Angels, acted as a significant stepping stone on her path to fame and fortune. Leveraging the popularity and influence that she gained from Charlie’s Angels, Cheryl added musical comedies to her performance repertoire and enjoyed great success. One of her proudest moments was singing the National Anthem at the Super Bowl in 1980. Cheryl is nowhere near retirement as of now, and that keeps her fans very happy.
Ann Margret – April 28, 1941
Ann Margret quickly became famous due to her lovely voice, which many deemed to be similar to Elvis Presley. Her voice did have the same soft tones as the King of Rock’s voice, and so she was dubbed the female Elvis Presley. However, Ann soon proved that she didn’t need to stand on the shoulders of another celebrity as her acting skills impressed everyone who witnessed her performance. She has won a total of five Golden Globe awards throughout her career while most actors would be happy to have even one. The singer has also received other accolades and various awards, and her job is far from over even though she’s 77 years of age. Ann Margaret’s love of entertaining obviously keeps her energized and youthful as she doesn’t look anywhere close to the age of retirement.
Ewan McGregor — March 31, 1971
You probably know Ewan McGregor due to his memorable performance as Obi-Wan Kenobi in the Star Wars prequel series. That may not be the only role he’s ever played, but he gained a great deal of attention as a result. Apart from these movies, he’s been in The Ghost Writer, Fargo, and Trainspotting. He’s even received a Golden Globe for his performance in Fargo, which proved to be one of the most popular movies in history. Even though Ewan is about to enter his 50s, he hasn’t aged at all and still looks like the actor that played the role of Obi-Wan all those years ago. We’d love to know what anti-aging products he’s using since they definitely work.
Jeffrey Dean Morgan — April 22, 1966
Jeffrey Dean’s acting skills have earned him an immense net worth. His huge bank account would not have been possible without the raw talent that he brings to the table. This is probably why casting directors keep choosing him for some of the best roles in movies and television shows. His performance as Negan from The Walking Dead painted him as a convincing villain that had the audience on the edge of their seats the entire time. Over the years, Jeffrey has only become better looking and has aged as perfectly as possible with his grey hair providing the rugged look that works so well with his roles. We’re expecting a lot from this actor in the years to come.
Harvey Keitel – May 13, 1939
American producer and actor Harvey Keitel has spent several decades of his life entertaining the world with his talents. He has earned several award nominations and won a few of them. Keitel featured in unforgettable movies like Reservoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction, The Piano and many others. At 80 years, you would think Harvey would have retired from acting by now. However, this handsome star is still around and shows no signs of fatigue!
These days, Harvey is featured in a new Netflix film: The Irishman. Throughout the decades, Harvey never stopped acting and is a profoundly appreciated actor. Staying active and doing what he loves must be one of the reasons Keitel haven’t lost his charm and handsomeness. His wife of 18 years, Daphna Kastner, sure is a lucky woman!
