Bridget Fonda hit headlines on Wednesday after she was photographed out in public for the first time in more than a decade.

The 58-year-old former actress — who quit Hollywood in 2002 and hasn’t walked a red carpet since 2010 — looked unrecognizable as she ran errands in Los Angeles.

(snip)

Fonda has proven that even the most glamorous stars change over the years, and she joins a growing number of former pinups who are defiantly owning their age and prioritizing personal comfort over public expectations.

Other ’80s and ’90s heartthrobs, however, have taken a different route — sparking speculation they’ve received cosmetic enhancements in a bid to fend off the aging process.

Here, the hottest stars of yesteryear and how they look now.

Clint Eastwood has aged really well. I heard he was in his 90’s and still making movies!


For a long time, that was true. But maybe he should stop now.
His last movie, “Cry Macho” was almost painful to watch. He just seemed to be shuffling and mumbling his way through the role. Even worse, there was once scene where a 40-something woman tried to seduce him. Sorry, but that nearly ruined the movie for me.

Clint has had a great run — he should just call it a career at this point.

Clint always has had a thing about May-December romances...



"Eastwood has described the film as a "big risk at the time" and that Universal Studios let him make the film as a favor. Eastwood "liked the whole comment on the rejuvenation of a cynic" who finds out about life through a seventeen-year-old girl, with her teaching him more about life than he does for her."

Dang! I did the same thing. My wife keeps cutting her hair shorter and shorter. Told her I was going to let my beard and hair grow out and look like a hippy! lol Did it for about 4 months and then went and had it chopped off. Oh well.
When my wife was young she had short hair like Pat Benatar. She could rock that look like no other.

Yes, Emmylou is a prime example of a woman aging gracefully and keeping her long hair is vital too that, even if it does eventually turn grey or silver.

Below is her young, middle age and "mature".

I started about four months ago (both beard and hair) and plan to keep going for a while. I'm 60 as well so don't really care what others think. I have had mostly buzz cuts since my Marine Corps days in the early 1980s.

In the 1970s when I was in high school, I had hair like Shaun Cassidy (this was similar to photo I handed to my stylist back around 1977). Best I can hope for today is a Brad Pitt look. We'll see where it goes.

I liked Matt Houston.

I missed that whole show! Was it good (or cheesy)? I've seen the opening on YouTube and that cracks me up. We would lovingly tease him and call him "the poor man's Tom Selleck". One time, on a shoot in Puget Sound, we shared a beautiful vacation house. I walked past his room to get out to the deck with some coffee, to try and whale spot. His door was wide open and I happened to look in, and there he was, fresh out of the shower and butt naked. After he got ready and came out, I said "Dude, I'm sure there are a million women who would have enjoyed seeing that - but you gotta close your door, cuz I can't UNSEE that!!"

Heather Locklear has not taken care. She could be arrested for defacing a national monument

When you hook up with someone like Tommy Lee, that was inevitable.

Focus on what you can control such as diet, exercise and lifestyle and you can remain healthy and looking fit well into your later years. The narcotics, sugar, alcohol, and smoking will age you exponentially.

Young Linda was a caliente mama, old Linda looks like an abuela. It’s the Mexican (descended) way (and there is nothing wrong with that - they still age better than Eastern Europeans do).

Linda is half Mexican (father), half German (mother).

Well, it’s not that uncommon for older men to date much younger women. Just not men in their 90s. Although, IRL, Clint is currently dating a woman who is 56 (35 years his junior). It just did not seem to work in the movie.

Show Rob Lowe before and afters, I bet you cannot tell the difference. He’s one of those rare people like Robert Wagner. Some people just age really well, genetics I guess. Everybody gets old, some just do it better than others.

I used to have such a crush on Melanie Griffith.

Although she has kept her killer body in shape, she has destroyed her face.

I know she's a heavy smoker, but c'mon
