Ageing Slebs- who looks the best/worst?

After noticing Andrew Ridgeley from Wham, and barely recognising him, I still can't help but think his relative normality sits better on a man of 46 than having fought to stay looking like a refugee from the Village People, as George Michael has for the last twenty years.

So which is better in your opinion? Raging against the dying of the light with the help of a wind tunnel, or letting it all hang out?

I saw this in my guilty lunchtime DM flick and thought that Andrew Ridgeley actually looked fine and pretty well conditioned for a man of 46. Also much admire his lazy ( sounding ) lifestyle, well done him for just enjoying his wealth and not trying to look and act like someone 20 years younger.

I was flicking through a spot the celeb who had work done website last night ( I need to get out more) and without exception, even for the ones who were deemed to be a success, they just looked plain weird. It doesn't make them look better just odd, Madonna looks positively creepy these days as does Nicole Kidman - who isn't even old.

So yay for Andrew Ridgeley.

i think he looks pretty darn good for 46!

lucykate · 28/09/2009 16:17

nicole kidman, imo, is one of the oddest looking female actors nowadays. she should have left her face alone.

CybilLiberty · 28/09/2009 16:19

Ohhh I would SOO do Andrew Ridgely.

BitOfFun · 28/09/2009 16:44

Me too, Cybil. I must be mid-cycle

Rupert Everett has mutilated himself.

Andrew Ridgely has got a fab bod. He's a year older than my dh but about 5 stone lighter I should think.

I think Terry Hall is wearing well.
Annie Lennox always looks good.
Debbie McGee looked pretty nifty in her bikini at 50

Rupert Everett - I can't even bare to click on the picture, I know the one you mean. It is tragic.

francagoestohollywood · 28/09/2009 16:55

Yes, I'm not keen on cosmetic surgery. AR looks good.
Agree with rookie, NK looks extremely weird!

I'm only glad that tis a man for a fucking change...was expecting Ulrika

...I think Andrew Ridgeley looks proper distinguished.

Rupert Everett looks shocking, though

MmeLindt · 28/09/2009 17:09

Andrew Ridgely looks good, much better than George. That pic of Rupert Everett looks as if there has been a lot of airbrushing going on. Not attractive.

I saw pics of Kate Moss today, she looks quite hard, you can see the years of partying have taken their toll.

UnquietDad · 28/09/2009 17:14

Michelle Pfeiffer has aged gracefully. OK, she may hide the grey a bit, but otherwise she looks like a sexy, healthy woman of 50 with natural crow's-feet and so on. I SO still would.

CybilLiberty · 28/09/2009 17:15

ooh ooh Meryl Streep

cocolepew · 28/09/2009 17:16

Wow! Peggy Bundy looks great. But Rupert

cocolepew · 28/09/2009 17:17

No no Michelle has had work done. Glenn Close.

UnquietDad · 28/09/2009 17:17

Kate Bush also 50.

Phwoargh.

UnquietDad · 28/09/2009 17:18

Be very very careful googling Joan van Ark, who was quite an attractive 40ish blonde from soap Knots Landing. The results today are..... not pleasant.

CNyle · 28/09/2009 17:18

god loads of em are better older imo

I think the Bananarama women both look hotter today than they did in the 80s. Who cares if they've had work done...?
