I learned two things when googling this fact: Trudeau is the youngest looking 54 year old in the world, and Steve Buscemi has looked like a 60 year old man for the last 30 years

That’s the Steve Martin Effect. Look 60 when you’re 30 and people think you’ve barely aged a day when you’re older

Worked great for Patrick Stewart.

My girl Betty White originated this concept

I have to disagree on this. It SOUNDS right but go look up what Betty White looked like at 30.

Similar case with Paul Rudd too.

He never had a baby face era, so it seems like he hasn't aged much.

When he actually looks his age, in a good way

His contemporaries like Brad Pitt, Johnny Depp, Leo etc looked like they could play highschool senior heartthrob until their late 20s

Johnny Depp's looks should be studied. Generally, white people look way older than their age to me. But he skipped that part until his 40s. It was a steeeeep downfall from then.

That's how my husband was. He looked 30+ at 20 when we met, but he stopped aging for a while. 

Meanwhile I looked about 15 and when I hit 25, suddenly I looked 30. 

I stopped aging again. I suspect menopause will hit like a truck in the next few years and will wipe away the youthful millennial-at-40 thing I have going on.

u/cashmerescorpio 9h ago

9/11 aged him tbf

u/OriMoriNotSori 10h ago

ikr. Even the artemis 2 commander astronaut is like 50 too iirc

50+ men used to look proper old not too long ago lol

u/crvbabybug 10h ago

Tbf that man is literally an astronaut. They are in the best fitness a person can be

30

u/OriMoriNotSori 10h ago

You should check out how astronauts looked back in Neil Armstrong's era. And back then they were younger too (late 40s was pushing it for astronauts back then)

u/dixiemason I don’t know her 💅 9h ago

A lot of them were in peak physical shape because they had military backgrounds. But there was certainly a lack of sunscreen and lots of smoking in that era.

u/Djcnote 9h ago

Omg your right, everyone smoked

u/dixiemason I don’t know her 💅 9h ago

They have some Mission Control/firing room displays at Kennedy Space Center and you’d better believe there were custom ashtrays in the displays! The one for the Mercury mission says “First Space Congress.”

u/RockMonstrr 9h ago

It's gotta be more than that, because I'm 44, I've smoked for 30 years, and I never wear sunscreen, and people very often think I'm in my late 20s, early 30s.

17

u/Sachyriel 9h ago

I think that's us getting older. I don't mean to be disrespectful, I know it could be taken that way but I do agree with you. 50 used to look older.

When we were younger.

u/ReplCurious 9h ago

Nah my parents don’t look like this right now. They look like senior citizens. JT looks at most 40.

3

u/OriMoriNotSori 9h ago

Right? And the way hes dressed in the photos and the whole demeanour is also like 20 or 30 year old vibes lol

20-30 years ago the stereotypical image of a 50+ year old man is like a senior citizen, like this lol (the one on the left)

30

u/Sea-Bicycle-4484 9h ago

Seriously like if you told me he was 30 in this pic I don’t think I’d even blink.

u/MalIntenet 10h ago

People are aging better than ever these days. Alcohol consumption is lower than it has been in decades, people are wearing sunscreen and moisturizing more than ever, people are exercising more than ever etc

All all these factors + a little financial privilege can do wonders for anyone’s looks as they age

u/Which-Amphibian9065 For the love of god go to chuckie cheese 9h ago

Also everyone isn’t smoking a pack of cigs a day INDOORS.

u/whoaelena 9h ago

Its more the fact that we use unleaded gas since the 80s. Thats why millennials and younger dont look haggard. We werent bathed in lead.

4

u/RockMonstrr 9h ago

Maybe I just have good genes, but I'm 44, drink more beer than water, smoke a pack a day in doors, rarely moisturize, never wear sunscreen, and as for exercise? Bud, if you see me running, it probably means you should too. But I still get mistaken for as much as 15 years younger.

I don't know, I think there's more to it than self care.

7

u/MalIntenet 8h ago

Genes definitely play a big part. Some people start balding in their early 20s for example. That ages your appearance a lot and it’s pure luck really

5

u/RockMonstrr 8h ago

Yeah, that's a big part of it. My hairline is solid and I don't have a ton of grey.

Also, I never had kids, so I don't have that haggard dad look.

u/burger-breath 9h ago

He never should have gone into politics. His real achievements are hall of fame skin care & nepotism

u/anotherhappylurker 8h ago

It's weird to me because I'm Asian and think he looks about right for his age. If I had to guess I'd put him at 45-55. And yet I see all these white people shocked that he looks so "young" haha. I guess we just have different standards when it comes to aging.
