We celebrate ten age-defying stars who have made turning 50 look effortless
ON paper, Melania Trump, Amanda Holden, Jennifer Lopez and Naomi Campbell hardly seem obvious bedfellows. But the quartet – along with several other A-list stars on both sides of the pond – all have one thing in common . . . a close proximity to the Big 5-0.
Of course, as well as having annoyingly lucky genes, the Fit At Fifty gang share a passion for health and well-being and a devotion to eating well . . . which probably also means drinking less. Here, we rank our pick of the age-defying stars as they hit the start of their sixth decade.
1. Amanda Holden
THE stunning BGT star sneaks in at No1 mainly because she refuses to give up martinis to look this good. And a bit of balance is important.
Amanda, who turns 50 next February, credits “viking warrior” workouts and yoga for her perfectly honed physique.
2. Jennifer Aniston
AT the age of 51, Jen could easily pass for ten years younger.
It’s all thanks to a combination of running, weights and daily meditation – and a regular routine of facials.
3. Naomi Campbell
THE Benjamin Button of supermodels, Naomi is 50 in May – and still looks catwalk-ready.
She credits “baby soap” and rose oil for her timeless looks.
4. J-Lo
J-LO turned 50 in July and has never looked better – though it does take ten hours of strenuous gym sessions per week to look this fantastic.
5. Rachel Weisz
LOVELY Rachel, who turned 50 yesterday, avoids the sun at all costs and is a keen gym bunny.
After giving birth aged 48, she was seen running, pram in hands.
6. Gwen Stefani
GWEN has the abs of an athlete and flexibility of a gymnast.
As well as necking litres of water, she never sunbathes and, fitting at 50, swears by Factor 50 sunscreen.
7. Mariah Carey
THE US diva turns 50 this month and works hard for her smooth skin.
As well as bathing in milk, she eats only smoked salmon and capers, and sleeps for up to 12 hours a day.
8. Catherine Zeta Jones
DESPITE all the rumours of Botox and fillers, the actress, who turned 50 in September, insists she owes her looks to kombucha, a drink made from tea and yeast culture.
9. Melania Trump
MRS TRUMP hits 50 next month and despite living with Donald looks amazingly well-rested.
She eats seven pieces of fruit a day and is said to walk about with ankle weights.
10. Nicola Walker
THE Last Tango In Halifax star turns 50 in May and has never had Botox but says she’s “finally grown into her face”.
As for exercise, she admits to “absolutely no discipline”.
