- He’s elegant, he’s 80 and he’s ours. The Toronto-born stage legend (and once-legendary lady killer) still has a smile that could remove the lederhosen from a milkmaid. <br />Because silver foxes come in both sexes. Too bad Hollywood has about as much faith in the sex appeal of women over 50 as it does in Lindsay Lohan’s sobriety. (Image: Jason Merritt/Getty Images Entertainment/Getty Images)

I wanted to buy all the tickets for the maverick session with Bruce Springsteen being interviewed by Ed Norton, so i could be alone with them, but , alas, I could not score even 1 ticket. Heavy sigh. Love the Boss.
loooooove the boss.
over 50 is for sure the new HOT…Helen Miran and all the lads.
I think that Redford, Sheen, and DeNero are still fairly “hot” for their ages. Eastwood’s starting to show his many years of too much sun and desert-like atmospheres; of his past acting years. But, I’m glad he’s still, “behind the Camera”, as he has Directed some really good stuff! As far as Christopher Plummer goes, He is still very debonair, and handsome and of course,very talented. Good for him, that he’s still acting, and is very much still a Loyal Canadian! More power to him!
