Andy Summers is 80 - yes, 80 years old today

Yes, I'm not surprised.
I mean I liked them when I was at school, and Sting had already been a teacher before they became known as the police, so when you do the maths......

Sunshineesther · 31/12/2022 13:29

No
Just no

PenelopeTitsDrop3121 · 31/12/2022 13:29

No way!! How old is Sting?

Time40 · 31/12/2022 13:32

No way!! How old is Sting?

Seventy-two. That's also hard to believe.

AbbyGal · 31/12/2022 13:32

Sting is 71!

I always fancied Stewart Copeland.

Always4Brenner · 31/12/2022 13:35

Good grief how to feel old.

Nope I'm getting this thread deleted. That can't be right

Whatevergetsyouthroughthenight · 31/12/2022 13:37

Blimey! Yup, mind blown.

Violetparis · 31/12/2022 13:37

Mind is blown !

FrancescaContini · 31/12/2022 13:37

Mind well and truly blown

Shitzngiggles · 31/12/2022 13:38

Well that's made an already shit day even more depressing.

GimmeBiscuits · 31/12/2022 13:44

I used to have a crush on Sting. Don't now but I do seem to have a bit of a thing for some celebrity pensioners.

TimBoothseyes · 31/12/2022 13:50

I had a mega crush on Andy Summers when I was in my teens.

Pedallleur · 31/12/2022 13:59

Summers sold Eric Clapton a gtr mid 60s around the time Cream was being formed. So same age almost as Christine McVie, Jagger/Richards etc

LlynTegid · 31/12/2022 14:02

When your godmother's oldest grandchild is the same age as the Prime Minister as in my case, nothing about age surprises you any more!

Sorry 😂

Report the hell out of it. She's messing with our minds!

RoseAndRose · 31/12/2022 14:07

Stewart Copeland is 70.

He and Sting are about the same age, and Andy was that bit older.

KathyBurke · 31/12/2022 14:08

Don't. That's nuts. I don't want to hear this.

Gasp0deTheW0nderD0g · 31/12/2022 14:10

Blimey.

Tony Bennett is 96, apparently. I'm sorry for any offence this may cause, but he's one of those celebs who, when their death is announced, I'm really surprised to find they were still alive.

Yikes!

Figgypuddingpiggyfudding · 31/12/2022 14:32

Seems about right? My parents liked them and they're in their 70s now too.

I find it mind boggling that the year 2000 is nearly 25 years ago though!

Riverlee · 31/12/2022 14:38

Paul Young is 66! He’s over ten years older than me, and I fancied him as a teen, partly because he grew up in Luton, not far from where I lived. Can you imagine the outrage today!
