Age Aint Nothin’ But a Number: 15 Comparisons of Celebs That Are The Same Age, But Don’t Look It

» By Neijah Williams @neijahlanae April 27, 2012, 11:00am

Whether you like to believe it or not, celebrities are people too. And there are always some people who don’t quite look their age. A person make look a bit older than they actually are or be more mature than most others their age and visa versa. This is particularly interesting when it comes to celebrities. With some of the best beauty and style experts around, we often forget the actual age of some of our favorite starlets and which among them are peers. You’d be shocked to know who is the same age, but we’re here to tell you!

    Avril Lavigne Cant Be 27, and No Way In Hell J-Lo and Gwen Stefani Are 42

    • http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1438551270 Jessica Lucinda Williams

      I thought J-Lo was older than that. I am 41 and I know she got me by 3 years. 

    • Waffleavenger

       Nope, Avril is 27. I know because she’s the same age as me.

  • Tender Roni

    Ummm the only one I was surprised by was MIA, she doesnt look a day over 23. Add 7yrs to Beyonce, this chic is not thirty, thirsty, but not 30!!!

    • Not throwing shade but…

      That made me laugh, but it’s so true. It was unfair putting Mia against Kim, Kim doesn’t even look human let alone 37!

  • diva

    Gwen Stafani may be close to 42 but jennifer lopez is every bit of 45yrs old so they need to stop with the industry ages and beyonce will never see 30yrs old agin she is every bit of 37-38 so she can get off the i’m 30yrs old bandwagon please if she is really 30 then she really had a baby not. Adele looks older and i can believe little kim 38 right along with nikki minaj in age.

    • Ruby Reed

      Of course Beyonce is 30. She was like 15 or 16 when she first started singing… I mean come on now! kelly jsut turned thirty… quitting critcizing these ladies and look in the mirror.

    • http://pulse.yahoo.com/_ST52CMG44KT2WBV53NYSRC5GDA blackpearl

      Beyonce actually looks younger without all the makeup on but I dont believe she’s 37

      • Twany

        Oh yes she is, Wendy Williams said this a while back when she was on radio in New York. Also, one of my classmates in high school became famous and fortunately for him he looked rather young for his age and his age was pushed back 8 yrs. so there is a such thing as REAL age & HOLLYWOOD age…..

        • Thominonose

          Yes, because Wendy Williams is soooooooo reliable!!! Wendy Williams is a MAN, maybe i’ll start listening to something he has to say when she admits that she is as much a female as Tyler Perry is when dressed as Medea! So your trying to say that Beyonce and Destiny Child were 26 passing as 15? Really? She cant get pregnant, she’s 49, she worships the devil and whats next? No one says this kind of stuff about successful white people. The hate has to stop! You wanna know why she looks so old ??? Maybe it is because of all the constant hate she gets from people is stressful!

          • Achica89

             LMAO. I’ve been saying forever that Wendy Williams used to be a man. Something about “him” seems a little off. Glad to know i’m not the only one that noticed.

            know what Frank told me, he said “Hey, Joe Louis is 137 years old.” A

            I agree.  ”He”  looks like a straight up drag queen. LOL.

      • BestGuest

         I agree. You can’t get away with faking age these days with records being as easily verifiable as they are. Beyonce was 12 when she did Star Search in 1993. She didn’t look 22 faking 12, she looked 12. That would make her 31 sometime in 2012.

    • Sassynhot

      I’ve always thought Adele looks at least 10 yrs older than her age, maybe it’s the tons of makeup she wears.  Lil Kim on the other hand needs to stop messing with what God gave her, now she’s hardly recognizable.

      • BloodyTired

         Adele looks older due to genes. Most overweight or obese women tend to look younger since fine lines and wrinkles are stretched and smoothed by fat.

        • RealityCheck

           Adele is obese? Spare me. I’ll take her over any skinny twig in a heartbeat. BloodyTired? More like BloodyBlind.

    • guest

      I don’t know how Jennifer Lopez could be 45yrs old when she was born july 24th 1969…

      • Okash05

        wow, it says 42 up there. how’d ya miss that? witch means that she will be 43 in july

    • guest

      diva,did you miss all of your math classes? Jennifer Lopez was born  july24th 1969 and I may be wrong but where I come from that would make her 42yrs old and this july 24th 2012 she will turn 43.Beyonce was born sept.4th 1981, wouldn’t that mean she will be 31yrs old this sept..Now I could be wrong but I don’t think so…..

    • guest

      Jen is going to be 43, this year; she and my sister graduated from Holy Family Elementary school the same year. 

    • http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1438551270 Jessica Lucinda Williams

       agree with all but Beyonce. she doesn’t even look thirty to me. but she was born the same year as my baby sister. i was 11.

    • http://pulse.yahoo.com/_K63DSPAF2FTF2BYDFXBXRLJ5WE missm

      you know this how?

  • Guest

    the beauty of diversity. get a group of friends together who are the same age and you will see the same thing. also, heavy makeup and curly hair make younger people look older. i had to learn that!          
    some people also have youthful faces and bodies, while others have more mature faces and stature. if you’re short and small, you will probably appear younger even if you don’t look it in the face. the women in the photos, however, do look younger than their real age facially. 

    • Guest

      i mean the women over 25 look younger than their age. adele, for example, just looks older. zoe kravitz, rihanna, and that child actress look their ages. 

  • Miss_Eva

    MIA looks like 25

  • Shannon

    Okay, please already…Beyonce is hitting 40 and hard!  She’s a beautiful woman….just way past 30.  Does no one remember when she performed on Star Search back in the day (in the mid 80′s.)  She AND Kellie were both 12 or 13.  Do the math people.  And lil Kim, her face doesn’t even look human anymore, regardless of the age.  ijs

    • Shannon

      …..and J-LO is closer to 46.  I’m old enough to remember when this ladies got started.  You ain’t fooling me.  Be thankful for your age and keep it real!

      • Guest

        Why are you trying to make everybody as old as you? Lol. These people have classmates, former associates, and well-documented lives. It’s not as easy to lie about your age now, as it was back in the day. It would be easy to dig up childhood friends or birth certificates, for that matter, if these people were lying about their age. 

    • EW

       Um, dont you mean mid 90s, it was in 1993 when Beyonce appeared on Star Search.

      • http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1438551270 Jessica Lucinda Williams

         I remember watching them on Star Search, when I was stationed in Vilseck, Germany. That was 1991 – 1993.

    • MUNCHOSGIRL

      YET KELLY, LETOYA ARE 31, WHILE LATAVIA AND BEYONCE ARE STILL 30. LETOYA , LATAVIA AND BEYONCE WERE IN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL TOGETHER. LETOYA HAS EVEN POSTED THEIR CLASS PHOTO BEFORE.

      • anonymité

         Bcs Kelly turned 31 in february and Beyonce will turn 31 in september so for now she’s still 30 do some maths instead of embarrasing yourself on the net like this idiot

        • MUNCHOSGIRL

          SEE HOW SILLY YOU ARE? I RESPONDING TO THE PERSON WHO SAID BEYONCE WAS EVERY BIT OF 37. THEY ARE ALL THE SAME AGE BASICALLY, SOME JUST A FEW MONTHS THAN OTHERS. THEY WERE ALL BORN IN 1981.

    • JustMe

      That was in 1993 , NOT the mid 80′s . Get your facts straight .

    • Yvettelopez300

      are u dumb?? if men and the media didnt give women such a high bar to try to reach then women wouldnt be so jealous of each other all the time besides none of these women really look like this anyway its all make up and nice clothes all this just goes to show people what u can look like if u have enough money so why dont u and all of the other men in america take beyonce and all these other celebrity women off the extremely high pedestals u put them on and remember the fact that no woman really looks like this

       No one said she’s ugly. She just looks older than 30. That isn’t necessarily a bad thing but it has been suspected forever that she isn’t really the age she says.

    • ALSHARPTEN

      Your picture reminds me of a National Geographic spread.

  • http://twitter.com/tysandsnyc tyrese sanders

    This was terrible.  A lot of the celebs listed in the same category both looked the same age.

  • Ria

    Fail!

  • Guest

    Gwen and J-Lo look the same age, so does Megan Good and Beyonce, also Avril and Katy Perry — they look in the same bracket, this list is a fail.

    • Sassynhot

      Totally agree, I thought the same thing too.

    • Cms2713

      Agreed.  There were only two pairing in which I thought they two looked to be different ages.  

    • Rs1179

       I was about to make the exact comment. You took the words right out of my mouth.

    • AC22

       Yea but neither of them look 42. Maybe that’s what they were trying to imply idk

    • GMJ

      Agreed – total waste of time and fail. Most pairs I couldn’t tell who was supposed to look older.

  • Sassynhot

    Beyonce was born in 1981.  Because she’s been in the biz from Satan was a boy it seems longer than that.  When Destiny’s Child hit the big times they were teenagers.  JLo was born in 1969, but remember she’s rich and can afford all the skin care treatments known to man.

  • quest

    MIA looks good and Megan looks to old. Too much make-up and over drawn eyebrows. Lil Kim just has issue’s. She should not even be a comparison.

    • Laila

      tattooed eyebrows for Meghan! She will have that look for awhile unless she covers them with makeup!

  • Ange248

    I find it hard to believe Beyonce is 30. Not that she looks older, far from it, but she could very easily be 35! Whatever, she looks fab. MIA looks like she is her twenties. Lil Kim looked better before she had surgery etc.

  • Laila

    MIA def looks better than lil Kim…anyone does… Meghan and Beyonce both look their age. Avril def looks young.

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/Goldie-Treasure/100001545308532 Goldie Treasure

    I think Katy Perry looks way older than her age, especially with no makeup. Gwen looks incredible and younger than her age. Lil’ Kim I just feel bad for.

  • Memphisstar

    I oddly remember a late thirties Gabrielle union mistakenly talking about being friend with bey once and them doing slumber parties sleep over when she was in performing art school and everybody was like WTF you doing sleepover with someone who would be 10 when you 18 or 19 and then of course their was some people out of Houston that leaked her vital records or whatever that showed she should be about 37 or 38 that all got swept under the rug. Celebs are known for changing their age and I think Bey one.

    • Twany

       Ur right she is!!! Wendy Williams said the same thing as well LOL!!!!

  • coco1love

    I had no idea that Gwen was 42, she looks great!

    • JustAnOpinion14

       I think JLo looks better…she’s absolutely beautiful!

      • larry

         they are both absolutely beautiful. and they have teams of people to make them that way.

           I’d love a team :)

      • http://www.facebook.com/mlunt00 Mark Lunt

        You are out of your mind, Gwen Stefani is much better looking. I’d leave my wife for a shot at her. J-Lo I would do if she begged me. Of neither would happen, but thats just my opinion

      • http://twitter.com/FrmSyriaWithLuv Syria Samuels

        Jlo is beautiful, but in this photo, you can tell there’s a lot of make up and photoshop put into it.

    • Guest

      I knew Gwen was 42, but only because I have had a 20+ years long crush on her, lol. I probably have had one for JLo all the way back to her fly girl days as well, so about as long for her too.

    • http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100001196079466 River Niles

      She looks so much younger than JLo and her attitude and fashion make her seem much younger as well!

        yeah I think she looks younger than JLO too, it’s her eyes I think lol …

    Should have put gabielle union she’s almost 40 but looks really young

  • Rhonda Pope

    I must agree with most of the comments this article was horrible.  Most of these people look the same age.  The only somewhat of a shocker was MIA and that was a good shock because she actually look younger.  I clicked on this thinking to see a real difference.  Most of these ladies look nice.

  • No

    I thought Adele was in her 40′s . Bey is cute, but she does looks old. 

  • Starr1crenshaw

    Megan you would look just as young if you would do something with that horrible hairstyle! This is 2012!

    MIA is 37?!! No way!

    who does Megan’s make-up??? She looks real from the neck down and plastic and shiny from the neck up.

    The only reason Lil Kim looks more like the mom of one of her peers is because of all the ridiculous surgeries she’s had.  Looking at her reminds me of just how fragile the mind is.

        • instantphoebe

          She definitely does not look 23. As a 24 year old, I think she honestly looks like she’s in her early 30s.

          • Prcaregirl

            she looks older because of the way her makeup is done and adele is more mature for her age, she probaly chooses to look more mature so she has her makeup done that way and dresses that way, think about it have u ever seen her dress like a normal 23 yr old shes plus she looks nice no matter what age

          • http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100001196079466 River Niles

            You do realize that clothing comes in more than one size, yeah? Like.. you have purchased your own clothing before, correct?

            She would probably look as old or older if she were underweight. Most women do.
            I’ll admit that I also thought she was a lot older, but maybe I wrongly assumed that you have to be at least in your 30′s to emulate Ricky Lake in “Hairspray”.

          • hotnoodles

            she’s not a model, she’s a singer, and her voice is magnificent. too bad we can’t all be perfect like YOU, right?

        • Andrea

          The 23-year-olds you know look really old then. I’m 24 and if I saw someone like Adele on the street, I’d assume she was in her late 20s/early 30s. It’s the makeup, hairdo and the way she dresses that ages her, not so much her weight.

        Yes, it’s distressing that, from the very title, she can’t even choose the proper pronoun for a person: it’s “who”–not “that.” What a waste of bandwidth.

      • Judith

        Wait, wait…hold it just a moment. English is my second language and my grammar, punctuation, and spelling are better than most native speakers. I also know more U.S.history, geography, and literature than most people educated here in the good US of A. Oh, and I came to this country in my 30s, having been educated in my native schools.

    Of course all the celebs are female.  Because the concept of ‘looking your age’ and age in general is almost always exclusively a ‘female problem’.  Age and looks will always be the number one issue for a woman – not talent, education, or accomplishments.  Typical patriarchal rubbish.

      meant: “may look a bit older…”  Then there’s this one: “and visa versa.”  She obviously meant “vice
      versa” but she couldn’t look these things up before she writes a column!  Pathetic.

    First of all, what’s up with calling these women “starlets”?  Are you kidding me?  What century is the writer from?  That term is both gender-biased and inaccurate.  The women pictured are, respectively, famous and respected singers and/or actresses. 

    Starlet is a mid-20th century term that means actresses who might or might not be on their way up, but are more than likely to remain on the C-list indefinitely.  Adele, Beyonce, and Jennifer Lopez hardly fit that profile. 

    You should learn to be more accurate and less anti-women

    first of all. i have trouble determining who is “supposed” to be the old looking one and who is supposed to be the young looking one.  secondly, at least one person from each couple compared is NOT a celebrity…who is JesseJ and Zoe Kravitz????possibly being a famous person’s kid DOES NOT make you a celebrity.  I can’t believe some vapid, borderline illiterate person got paid money to write this…well, i don’t even know what to call it, but it’s not an article.

    • MDA

      Zoe Kravitz is a celebrity, not an A-list celebrity, but a celebrity nonetheless. She’s currently featured on the cover of NYLON magazine and if you check her IMDB page, you’ll see that she’s spent the past couple of years developing an acting career. She’s not just featured here because she’s the daughter of Lenny Kravitz and Lisa Bonet. She has an actual career. 
      Jessie J is a budding, UK-based pop star and she has performed on popular shows such as Saturday Night Live. So, no, she’s not a barely-known singer as your comment seemingly suggests. Just because she doesn’t possess Beyonce/Rihanna-level popularity doesn’t means she’s not a celebrity. I think, more than anything, your comment speaks to your limited scope of what’s buzzing right now in terms of music, film and pop culture. Perhaps you should consider checking out some recording artists and movies that don’t always feature A-listers.As for this article as a whole, I agree that a side-by-side comparison would have worked better. In some of these profiles it’s clear who looks older; in others, not so much…perhaps some descriptions would have made the author’s opinions clear to readers. #YallCouldHaveDoneABetterJob

        • MDA

          Your suspicions are BS, dear reader. Funny this is, I don’t even listen to Jessie J; I just happened to follow people on Twitter who talk about her on occasion. I found out about her on Bassey Ikpi’s timeline and on a friend’s Tumblr.  As for Zoe, she’s featured on enough blogs so it’s easy to keep up with her. *shrugs*

            “She’s currently featured on the cover of NYLON magazine and if you check her IMDB page, you’ll see that she’s spent the past couple of years developing an acting career.”
            “Jessie J is a budding, UK-based pop star and she has performed on popular shows such as Saturday Night Live.”

            Well you might consider a career as a publicist, because you sure write more like a publicist than an actual human being.

    I couldn’t figure out who was supposed to look “older” or “younger” in most of the comparisons.  Dakota Fanning  vs. Unknown and M.I.A. vs. Lil Kim were the sole exceptions.  And I agree wholeheartedly with the other posters that you have some work to do on the “page loading” efficiency….it takes way too long and is not worth the wait.

    I was a little confused by the J-Lo / Gwen one.  Who was supposed to look older in this pair?  Both look amazing in their pics.  The Beyonce one confused me as well.  Interesting idea, but terrible execution.

  • http://profile.yahoo.com/SPRPSOD7CQMHTEM77MISLY2IAM Jaye

     lol!  I think Gwen looks really good (in that photo anyway).  But I think people base J.Lo’s looks on her body.  Because to me, she looks no younger then 38.  So 42 isn’t a stretch.

  • http://www.facebook.com/april.berry.18 April Berry

    Why the eff does everyone keep saying Adele looks like she is 40? It’s just because she always wears lots of makeup and mature outfits.  When you have the money to look good, it can usually make you look older too.  Plus, she isn’t skinny and starving herself like most women in the public eye – she has curves, so she looks like a woman.  You should look like a woman when you’re 23, not 16.

    This page has the worst design for viewing comparative pics I’ve ever seen. Every single page has to be scrolled down to compare the two images of the celebrity. Horrible work. Place the two side by side idiot. Thumbs down to your web designer for a crappy job. 
    I’d say the frames wouldn’t allow for side by side placement because of all the crappy ads on the right. It would have offset the left. He could have at least re-sized the pictures and made them match and fit the frame. Pics were all different sizes as well. Shoddy work.

    • http://twitter.com/hardtohandle hardtohandle

      They did place them side by side but the size of the images forced the format. Their pictures are too large and the brains of their web designers are too small. Anyone, especially people who don’t bother to check their work, can be a web designer, apparently.

      • tinny

        the images were definitely not placed side by, because there is writing separating them and if it were supposed to be horizontal that would still be nestled between. Meaning they very consciously (and stupidly) stacked it. Confirmed by checking the page source coding (thus proving that I am a nerd – sigh)

        it shows her level of distates for the way content was delivered, I on the other hand see no merit to the disbelief, as most of the same-aged celebs look very much similar in age, but not in fashion-sense…. the 2 that seem dis-similar are Dakota & Melodie, and perhaps Lil Kim and MIAm because  DF and MIA have not worn themselves out living the hard life

    I’d like to say that all these celebs look way younger than they should and that’s probably because they are all successful and can afford really expensive stuff that most normal folk can’t. : / as for them not looking the same age as the other in the photo not really they all look great in my opinion.

    Whoever chose these comparisons sucks as their job. With the exception of Lil Kim and MIA they all look their age and look like the same age as the person their being compared to. Isn’t the point supposed to be that one either looks much younger or much older than the other? Lame and disappointing. 

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/Howie-Sheinfeld/611568402 Howie Sheinfeld

    I have to concur with all of the negative comments.  A waste of cyberspace.  Adele does look a bit older than Zoe Kravitz and Li’l Kim definitely looks older than MIA, but for the other pairs, they all look to be about the same age.  They should have paired Tyne Daly with Sally Field.

  • Kachinadreamer

    These are supposedly professionals putting together these pages. Clearly someone does not understand the very basics of usability statistics. I will say this bluntly, I agree this page was done in the shabbiest way possible. An elementary student could and has produced better work. i would say her criticism is more of an observation and considering the majority of people who bothered to reply, were so distrubed by the usability of a link and pages that are on a major media outlets site, it is well deserved. If you can’t take the heat, get out of the kitchen. If someone is looking for better comments, they could have taken the time to improve the HTML code.

    I can’t say I agree with all of these. Like for instance,
    Jennifer Lopez & Gwen Stefani they look the same age, but they don’t look 42… maybe want to revise the name of the article… and also yes, if you are going to a photo article, then you need a better way to view the photos.

  • annonym

    one cannot do any accurate comparisons when the images of the subject are not equal in size, pixels, and aspect ratios. for example, when you have a subject in a wide shot being compared to another person in a tight close-up one there is no proper comparison. at the very least there should have been an attempt to similarly crop each set of photos being used for such comparisons. i further question the fairness of these comparisons based on the subject’s ethnicities. when you have one subject possessing more melanin compared to that of another subject who is noticeably lacking pigmentation, it will be an easy win for the one possessing melanin. science tells us that darker pigmented people tend to look younger than people with paler complexions. as for excessive degrees of partying and drugging this becomes another sort of comparison, eh? thus, leading one to realise not much thought and planning seems to have gone into this “comparative test.” hence, the most obvious speculative reasoning for this “test” was merely to supply ads and to obtain everyone’s email address for spamming solicitations.

  • annonym

    …and, let me add to my previous post noting that each of the subject’s used also have varying degrees of thickness as to make-up being piled onto their faces. the purpose of makeup is to alter one’s true “identity” (age). remove the makeup and you have a more honest view of what the subject actually looks like; this includes being able to gauge better one’s age.

    finally, i hope all the photos of those celebrities were taking in the very same year as were their opposing counterparts.

    all this is to shed light on the many problems in this “test” possessing any merit whatsoever.

    lastly, i hope people used a bogus email address as did i to submit comments to protect yourself from being spammed because of their comments, which are my beliefs as to the main purposes of the hastily compiled “test” being done here.

  • http://www.facebook.com/aunaleis Aunaleis Beshara Wessel

    Actually that person was speaking against a generalization, if YOU had done some proper reading yourself. You should be saving that comment for the people who make incessant claims of precisely what that poster was debunking…that all black people age gracefully and white people don’t.

  • AAA

    Four main problems with this article:
    1. The layout is horrific, as many posters have already pointed out. Side by side photos are essential in this type of article.
    2. Many of these comparisons are not shocking. Jessie J and Rhianna both might not look 24, but rather they both look like they could be the same age (which they are, it’s just younger than you thought). Wasn’t the point of the article to compare people who are the same age, but one looks dramatically younger/older than the other?
    3. ADS, ADS, ADS. I almost left the page out of loading/scrolling frustration, but stayed to see how ridiculous the celebrity comparisons continued to be. And I wasn’t let down.
    4. Ummm, there aren’t “7 celebrities” in this article. There are 14. The title should read “7 celebrity pairs” or “14 celebrities.” In addition to everything else this author got wrong, that’s the crown jewel of mistakes in this article.
