It is a bummer about Val and Micky Rourke. I was kind of honked off about them listing a few people who were dead until I realized the article came out in 2009!
Ordinarily I'm down with this kind of thing, but most of these are just cruel...I mean, it's been decades in each person's case, and a lot of them kept it up way longer than you'd expect (like Jamie Lee Curtis and Farrah Fawcett). Also, Pacino doesn't look so bad! And there are celebs who get great plastic surgery (like Johnny Depp) and nobody notices. It's like CGI: if it's good, you aren't aware of it.
Yeah, all this seems to say is "time exists." They should have a corresponding article about celebs who look great years later. Or better yet, celebs who always looked whack.
Wow.
Who would have thought that weight gain, accumulation of wrinkles, and unfortunate turns of events such as drug abuse (most likely due to depression) could constitute aging "miserably"? I was happy at the first sign of crow's feet about my eyes because it meant that I wasn't some creepy immortal being!
The headline seems like it could be a funny article but I quickly found it to be ageist and excessively critical of how we look. How the hell do we expect celebrities to look?
I totally agree with Jordan & Octo that most of the comments are just cruel, and, I'd add, reflective of a society peopled with imperfect specimens searching for an unreachable "perfect" image. Ugh.
It takes so many years to de-construct the ideas of beauty in young women (and young men, too) that one glance at this article with these comments slings us back into a world where nothing is good enough to pass without criticism.
