you know you look at them and you think. Barbara Steissand doesn't sound the same anymore. They struggle to HAVE to continue their image of looking YOUNG. It's sad but that's Hollywood. Always having to starve, to try to be perfect in appearance in everyway. It must be a difficult Life. And all those surgeries!! OMG It's nice to be just a regular person who just wants to age naturally and stay as healthy as you can for as long as you can without worrying about Image.

And everyone watching them and criticizing them, prying into their personal lives, and looking for wrinkles or a weight gain. Obviously a life of fame is what they choose, but I agree, it must be a difficult life.

I thought Jennifer Laurence made a nice recovery from her stumble on the stairs. And Jennifer Anniston looked fabulous.

Im not a huge barbra Steisand fan, but I thought she look amazing and sang flawlessly.

On the other hand....and I know off subject....it seemed weird and out of place for Michelle Obama to show up as a presenter....just weird. If I had known she was gonna be on the show, i would not have watched it at all.

Some woman have too much stuff done and they start looking worse than if aged gracefuly. I think Helen Mirren looks splendid as she looks natural.

Tony Bennett looks great and he is 83.

...is doing really well and she looks her age. 60 Minutes did an interesting piece on her last week on February 17, 2013. http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=50141231n

This is what I was trying to say about Mae West and Goldie Hawn.
All the botox and plastic surgery in the world cannot beat "inner beauty" which radiates from even the homeliest woman who has a kind and loving heart........and sets her mind on loftier aspirations than "preservation" of their youthful "image". I agree with Heartnsoul.......

p.s.
Too much surgery and botox gives one a very plastic non movable face.........it's definitely detectable.
We watch the re runs of the GOLDEN GIRLS and even today Betty White is one who has aged gracefully......and achieved longevity in her life and her career.
