I think part of the cognitive disconnect of when you see an actor age is that so much of their life is recorded and so much of our mental concept of them is locked in to the video that we have seen of them.
Then suddenly when you encounter them having aged normally it looks really weird.
And then you have people like Brad Pitt, Jennifer Aniston, and Kate Beckinsale who look like they haven’t aged a day in decades. It’s hard to believe that Brad is like 61 and still looks about 35.
I follow Kate on Instagram (highly recommended) and she’s over 50 (IIRC) and still looks like she’s in her late 20s. I’m convinced that she’s actually a vampire and Underworld was an autobiography.
If you have a job that pays you a vast fortune and it’s primary requirement is that you look super hot you’d probably invest a little of that money into eating and exercising well too.
Not only that but there are billions of dollars spent every year in enhancing our youthful appearances. There are all matter of artificial peptides and hormones and substrate injections and buccal fat pad revisions and microneedling and threading and Botox available if remaining youthful looking is that important to you.
All of this works in addition to healthy eating and healthy exercising and some of the most miraculous powers of makeup and instantly generated artificial intelligence overlays to help ensure that people remain as youthful looking as it is financially profitable and personally possible for them to do so.
I’m 38, so I know what 35 looks like haha People age at different rates than others. I’ve seen 35 year olds that look like their 65 and 65 year olds that look like their 35.

Flashback to an early episode of Last Week Tonight where a thoroughly embarrassed John Oliver points out that he’s 5 years YOUNGER than Rock “The Dwayne” Johnson 😄
You notice how everybody has that one famous person that people tell them they look like? Lately I’ve been getting Michael Douglas. Michael Douglas is almost 80. I’m in my 40’s. People just picture Michael Douglas in his 40’s because that was the height of his career.

Nah, brad pitt absolutely does not look like he is 35. He may look very good for his age, but not that good.
Your perception of what a 35 year old should look like may have changed as you also aged though.

Kate Beckinsale of course looks fantastic, but for sure she’s had work done.

Y’all are having your looks compared to famous people?
Leading to a lot of Tony Hawk’s tribulations.
