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.

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.

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 😄

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