Hollywood may be obsessed with youth, but this group of women has cracked the code to aging backwardâsometimes doing so naturally, other times with a little help from Botox.
The following stars have urged women in their fifties to avoid hiding or believing theyâre âoff the shelf.â Theyâve also questioned the âhypeâ surrounding eternal youth.
In contrast, some have shamelessly admitted that, just like their fans, theyâre also obsessed with their age-defying looksâŠor even credited their healthy appearance to their marriages.
Without further ado, here are 20 actresses and singers who look decades younger than they actually are.
#1 Demi Moore
Demi earned worldwide fame after playing a grieving girlfriend in the 1990 film Ghost. During her press tour for The Substance, the 63-year-old actress spoke about societyâs obsession with staying young, saying, âAnybody who thinks that getting older means life is less is sadly mistaken.âShe said the film that earned her an Oscar nomination helped her reflect on a time in her life when she placed "a lot of value" on her appearance and on trying to look young in the spotlight.âI look at having my daughters, and I donât want there to ever be in their minds that there is an end. To me, this is the most exciting time of my life,â Demi added.
