We all know that aging is unavoidable, but certain people seem to stop aging, no matter how many years or decades pass. That's why it's so astonishing to find somebody reaching their sixth decade this year without losing their facial charm. As a matter of fact, a person's exact age is not always reflected on their birth certificate, and as people live longer lives, we find that "old age" arrives far later than we might have expected. After all, at 60, life is just getting started!

Many renowned ps have turned 60 which may surprise you, including recognized faces like George Clooney and former US President Barack Obama and cherished sitcom performers like Spin City's Michael J. Fox and Seinfeld's Julia Louis-Dreyfus. Perhaps your favorite celebrity is among these next 60-year-olds. Read on to see more of them.
