Beyoncé has amazing skin, and she makes sure to keep it healthy. Her makeup artist, Sir John, makes sure to give her tips to take care of it. John shared in an interview with ELLE that he encourages Beyoncé to always remove any makeup she wears. “Always take off makeup at night. It doesn't matter if you're dead tired or drunk, take your makeup off before bed.”
2. Britney Spears

Britney Spears has been dancing all her life, and she’s still doing so. Spears is known for posting videos on Instagram of herself dancing at home. Dance has a lot of benefits. Prudential reports, “Dancing requires lots of fast movement and good posture, which can help you gain better control of your body. Moreover, there are 3 primary planes of motion; unlike simple movements such as walking and cycling, which only involve the sagittal plane of your body, dancing works your body from all planes, which means ALL your muscles are involved, not just some.”
3. Christina Aguilera

Christina Aguilera shared some of her wellness and beauty secrets in an interview with Marie Claire. She says that she’s all about self-care and relaxation. “I live for my epsom salts and my baths. I have so many different scents that I carry with me–everyone makes fun of me. I’ll go for rose for calming and lavender for sleep to moisturizing coconut to heavy duty menthol. If I’m congested, I’ll reach for eucalyptus—I’m across the board. I need them in my life; I’m obsessed with them. I also like different scented oils. They’re mentally refreshing. I’ll do little spritzes of rose oil.”
4. Lisa Rinna
Unique Nicole/FilmMagic
Actress and reality star, Lisa Rinna, opened up about her favorite workouts on her website. She says that she loves to walk to stay in shape. “The thing that keeps it interesting for me is I don’t always have ‘normal’ weeks. When I am traveling, I like to walk. I can walk and walk and walk for miles. Sometimes, I will use the gym in my hotel but if I am in a big city like NYC, I just walk. The time flies by because there is always something exciting going on around me and before you know it, I’ve covered five miles.”
5. Jennifer Lopez
Steve Granitz/FilmMagic
Actress and singer Jennifer Lopez is known for her impressive body and beauty. She also has a high level of confidence in herself. "I think the idea of being curvaceous, being a little bit bigger than normal or smaller than normal, all of that is okay,” she told Heat Magazine. “As long as it’s healthy. I embrace who I am. I feel sexy, I feel youthful, I feel pretty!"
6. Cindy Crawford

Cindy Crawfod is one of the most successful and gorgeous supermodels of all time, and she still  looks amazing today. “My go-to workout would be 20 minutes of cardio then weights,” she said in 2017 to The Cut. “Sometimes the cardio is jumping on a trampoline, using a treadmill or elliptical or running. We have stairs going down to the beach from our house. I put on an audiobook or music while I run the stairs at my house for 20 minutes.” 
7. Robert Downey Jr.
Steve Granitz/FilmMagic
The Iron Man star is open about his struggles with being in the public eye. In an interview on Off Camera, Downey Jr. talked about how he manages to move on from a project without too much mental struggles. “First thing you learn in theater arts: Aesthetic distance. I am not this play I’m doing. I’m not a character in ‘The Fantasticks.’ I’m not Will from ‘Oklahoma.’ Aesthetic distance. It’s job one. I’m not my work. I’m not what I did with that studio. I’m not that period of time that I spent playing this character. And it sucks because the kid in all of us wants to be like, ‘No! It’s always gonna be summer camp and we’re all holding hands and singing kumbaya. Isn’t it?’ It’s like, ‘no! Snap out of it.'”
8. Jessica Simpson

One of the secrets to Jessica Simpson’s good looks is her skincare. She shared her tips in an interview with Shape. “During this pandemic, I've gone down a skin-care rabbit hole, and I've been using a red-light therapy mask too," she says. "I'm obsessed with doing red-light therapy treatments at home. I place the anti-inflammatory device everywhere on my body, including my scalp, stomach, and boobs. I have fewer wrinkles at 40 than I did at 38!"
9. Vanessa Lachey
Arturo Holmes/WireImage
The Love Is Blind host tells Us Weekly that she and her family turn to portion control as a way to help her eat healthy. “I think portion control is always the biggest thing that people can do, because it’s impossible to say, ‘Change the way you eat.’ I have three kids, like, I’m gonna constantly be eating whatever’s on their plate. That’s just how it is. Nick will tell you, he was a kid where his parents were from the Depression era. So we were from the clean plate era. You had to clean your plate, so it’s still instilled within us. I think just portion control for anybody. They’ll see a difference.”
10. Jimmy Kimmel
Steve Granitz/FilmMagic
The talk show host opened up about his diet in an interview with Men’s Journal. “My new thing — something I've been doing for a couple of years now, actually — is starving myself two days a week. People call it the 5:2 diet, but I've been doing it since before it had a name. On Monday and Thursday, I eat fewer than 500 calories a day, then I eat like a pig for the other five days.”
11. Teresa Guidice

The Real Housewives star recently got married, and opened up about her wedding preparation to CNN. "Leading up to my wedding, I  was getting to the gym as much as I could. And I was doing a lot of walking, like in my development, Louie and I would walk together. You know, walking is really important. I would do like 3 to 4 miles a day. Sometimes I put ankle weights on; I like the red Bala bands."
12. AJ McLean
Scott Eisen/Getty Images
While appearing on Dancing with The Stars, the Backstreet Boy worked with a trainer to help him stay in shape. McLean opened up about the process on Instagram. “Blood, sweat, tears. Rinse and Repeat. Thank you @bobbystrom for helping find my body and piece of mind again! This is an ongoing journey that I will never stop working on. Never felt better and more confident about my mind, body and spirit as I do today.”
13. Terry Crews

Prior to starring on shows like Everybody Hates Chris and Brooklyn Nine-Nine, Terry Crews was a former football player, and he’s still looking the same today. He opened up about his diet to Men’s Health. “When I wake up, the first thing I do is have a glass of water...And I put amino acid powder inside—I like to call it stardust. I drink that all morning and afternoon. And, then I’m off to the races.”
14. Andy Samberg

In a 2015 interview with Nylon, the Saturday Night Live and Brooklyn Nine-Nine star opened up about how he approaches his career. Samberg says that he focuses on doing what makes him happy, rather than what’ll be successful. “Making a movie is super-fucking-hard work and no one wants to put out a movie and have it not make a gajillion dollars, but I genuinely feel like I’ve reached a point where, when I’m old and I’m going to die, I really made the shit that I personally thought was funny.”
15. Gwyneth Paltrow
Michael Kovac/Getty Images
Actress Gwyneth Paltrow has learned to embrace her body as she’s gotten older. “My body knows what it's doing and has some muscle memory, some strength, and some flexibility," Paltrow told Shape. "But it's important to have some grace around the aging of your body, to be forgiving. Okay, well, maybe my skin or my muscle won't bounce back here the way it used to, and that's okay. You have to recalibrate."
16. Jimmy Fallon

Jimmy Fallon has been a public figure for almost two decades. He opened up about how he deals with criticism on an episode of Fresh Air. “I don't care what anyone says,” he said. “I think everyone's - I think they're - no. If I needed people to write for my show, I would have them write for my show. I'm not going to change who I am because of them. It's just the world changing.”
17. Channing Tatum
Jon Kopaloff/Getty Images
Channing Tatum is known for his good looks, as you could see in the Magic Mike film series. However, he revealed on The Kelly Clarkson Show that he isn’t a fan of doing the intense workouts he had to do for the films everyday. Tatum opts for a more natural look and a more realistic approach. “Trust me. That might be the reason I didn't want to do a third one is because I have to look like that. Even if you do workout, to be that kind of in shape is not natural. That's not even healthy—you have to starve yourself. I don't know how people who work a 9-to-5 actually stay in shape because it's my full-time job and I can barely do it. You work out twice a day. You have to eat completely right at a certain time."
18. Ryan Reynolds

To get in shape for Deadpool, Reynolds worked with trainer Don Saladino. “I’ve been working with Ryan for over a decade,” Saladino told Men’s Health. “Every movie he got ready for I prepped him for. He’s an incredible human being. He’s very talented, athletic and humble. I can’t take full credit because he has such a drive.”
19. Paul Rudd
Axelle/Bauer-Griffin/FilmMagic
Paul Rudd has done a lot in his career, with Ant-Man: Quantumania being his most recent film. He opened up about his preparation for the role in an interview with Men’s Health. “I get up and I have a cup of coffee, and then I do cardio before I eat anything. I never would’ve done that before [Ant-Man]. I lift weights, hopefully at least three times a week. And I’ve learned so much about how my body reacts to foods, how it reacts to exercise, and where I’m happiest and how much it affects me mentally…If I’m in this suit, running around playing a character who’s supposed to be a superhero, I just feel better. And I feel less like an imposter.”
20. Nick Lachey
Alexander Tamargo/Getty Images
Nick Lachey and his wife, Vanessa, recently moved to Hawaii, to accommodate Vanessa’s role on NCIS: Hawaii. He also spent time in Panama filming Netflix’s Perfect Match. Lachey and their kids like to do a lot of outdoor activities in all these tropical locations. Naturally, Lachey spends a lot of time at the beach, and shared this video of him walking in the ocean on Instagram. He captioned the post, “Not a bad day at the office!” Augustine Recovery reports that spending time at the beach has a lot of mental health benefits. “Surrounding yourself with nature has a calming effect that can reduce your stress levels. The beach also provides soothing sensory input from the sound of ocean waves meeting the shore and the feel of warm sand beneath your feet. Spending time at the beach can lessen nervous system arousal – something that contributes to your excess anxiety.”

Age is just a number, at least when it comes to some of Hollywood’s hottest stars. Celebrities like Jennifer Lopez, Sharon Stone, Jennifer Aniston, and Demi Moore gained fame in their teens and twenties and in the decades since, through their thirties, forties, fifties, and even sixties, have managed to stay looking forever young. Here are 10 celebrity bodies that defy time and the secrets behind them. 
1. Jennifer Lopez

In May 2021 Jennifer Lopez declared: "I'm in the best shape of my life." The 53-year-old actress seems to get in better shape the older she gets. Her secret? Changing up her approach to exercise. "In my 20s and 30s I used to work out but not like I do now," she told InStyle's The Beauty Issue. "It's not that I work out more; I just work out harder and smarter. And it doesn't take me as long as it did in the past. I do it more for my health than I do for looks, which is funny. When you do things for the right reasons, you actually look better!"
2. Heather Graham

In early June, Heather Graham, 53, hit the beach in a white-hot swimsuit, revealing her age-defying body. According to the star, the secret to her physique is a combination of fitness, mostly yoga and sometimes twice a day, and a healthy diet. She revealed to Refinery29 that she avoids complex carbohydrates—white flour and sugar.
3. Demi Moore

Demi Moore might be a grandmother, but she’s still just as sexy at 60 as she was decades ago. The longtime yogi, recently upped her workout game with the help of at-home workout classes via The Mirror. She also hikes with her family, eats healthy, and doesn’t drink alcohol or do drugs. 
4. Catherine Zeta-Jones
Marc Piasecki/FilmMagic
Catherine Zeta-Jones, 53, clearly knows a few things about longevity. The Welsh actress is one of the few Hollywood stars who trains herself. “I don’t have a trainer. Crazy, right? But I don’t need anyone to motivate me,” she told InStyle. “I love exercise, even things like the elliptical machine and stretching. It’s a legacy of dancing all those years.” She does exercise “at least 45 minutes a day, seven days a week” – so every single day! Some of her favorite workouts include swimming, tennis, peloton, and tap dancing.
5. Salma Hayek

At 56, Salma Hayek is still sizzling up social media with her swimsuit snaps. In June 2023 she showed off her gorgeous curves in a bathing suit, making it hard to believe her claims that she hates to work out. "Some people have the discipline to exercise in the morning, and I didn't develop that," she told People. "I work with a woman in London who taught me how to hold my body in a way where the muscles are activated all day long. So even when you brush your teeth, you're working the muscles.” Salma claims "restorative yoga” is responsible for her ageless body. “She taught me how to tone [my muscles] without clenching them. You relax them and focus on the parts that need to be used, but never with tension. If you're aware of your body, you'd be surprised by the effect it can have."
6. Jennifer Aniston
Steve Granitz/FilmMagic
Jennifer Aniston is famous for her rigorous and regimented approach to exercise. However, in a new interview with Bustle she revealed that after a lifetime of super-aggressive “feel the burn” workouts, she has softened her routine. “I work out about three to four times a week, which is basically all your body really needs. I’ll do Pvolve, and then to switch it up, sometimes I’ll do Pilates, or sometimes I’ll take a hike,” she said. She also focuses on recovery. I love an infrared sauna or an Epsom salt bath. Those are two really good for drawing that lactic acid out, and I’ll even use my hands or a little gua sha on my legs for the same purpose.”
7. Elizabeth Hurley

At 58, many women aren’t thrilled to wear swimsuits – let alone model them. However, Elizabeth Hurley is still her own best bathing suit salesperson. “I don’t exercise, but I am very active,” she confessed to Harper’s Bazaar. Her routine includes “going for walks, stretching, maybe a little yoga or a little Pilates,” she told Us Weekly in October 2018. “But I don’t like high impact, high energy sports. I don’t actually think they do you much good. As long as you get your heart rate to the rate you need it to get, which is a fast walk. But you need to do a bit of it.” She also counts steps. “ I walk every day, so I try and hit my 10,000 steps a day and I do some stretching every day. And then sometimes I do a bit more, but that’s enough for me really,” she said. 
8. Cindy Crawford
Stefanie Keenan/Getty Images
At 57 Cindy Crawford is still a supermodel. She attributes her fantastic figure to regular strength and weight training workouts, boxing, golfing, and surfing. She recently told Red magazine that she has eased up on exercise since her Cindy Crawford Workout video days.  “Now my goal is not to get hurt. So, I have added a lot more stretching and Pilates, and I don’t feel as compelled to do those tough workouts any more,” she said. 
9. Halle Berry
Daniele Venturelli/Getty Images
For Halle Berry, 56, fitness is simply a part of her lifestyle. “You just have to have the will and the desire. And you have to make up your mind that it's important,” she has said about the secret to her success. While her approach to exercise has evolved, she maintains that it’s “only changed in terms of how I've been adding to my fitness regimen. It used to just be working out with weights, and then I got into Pilates, and then I got into yoga, and now I'm into martial arts."
10. Sharon Stone
Tibrina Hobson/Instagram
It’s hard to believe that Sharon Stone is 65. "Every time I exercise, I do something different based on which areas need to get in motion," she told Shape. The Basic Instinct star works out four to five times a week, combining pilates, total-body stretches, strength training, yoga, and dance. She also avoids alcohol and caffeine and eats incredibly healthy, avoiding gluten.

Actress Gwyneth Paltrow has learned to embrace her body as she’s gotten older. “My body knows what it's doing and has some muscle memory, some strength, and some flexibility," Paltrow told Shape. "But it's important to have some grace around the aging of your body, to be forgiving. Okay, well, maybe my skin or my muscle won't bounce back here the way it used to, and that's okay. You have to recalibrate."
16. Jimmy Fallon

Jimmy Fallon has been a public figure for almost two decades. He opened up about how he deals with criticism on an episode of Fresh Air. “I don't care what anyone says,” he said. “I think everyone's - I think they're - no. If I needed people to write for my show, I would have them write for my show. I'm not going to change who I am because of them. It's just the world changing.”
17. Channing Tatum

Channing Tatum is known for his good looks, as you could see in the Magic Mike film series. However, he revealed on The Kelly Clarkson Show that he isn’t a fan of doing the intense workouts he had to do for the films everyday. Tatum opts for a more natural look and a more realistic approach. “Trust me. That might be the reason I didn't want to do a third one is because I have to look like that. Even if you do workout, to be that kind of in shape is not natural. That's not even healthy—you have to starve yourself. I don't know how people who work a 9-to-5 actually stay in shape because it's my full-time job and I can barely do it. You work out twice a day. You have to eat completely right at a certain time."
18. Ryan Reynolds

To get in shape for Deadpool, Reynolds worked with trainer Don Saladino. “I’ve been working with Ryan for over a decade,” Saladino told Men’s Health. “Every movie he got ready for I prepped him for. He’s an incredible human being. He’s very talented, athletic and humble. I can’t take full credit because he has such a drive.”
19. Paul Rudd

Paul Rudd has done a lot in his career, with Ant-Man: Quantumania being his most recent film. He opened up about his preparation for the role in an interview with Men’s Health. “I get up and I have a cup of coffee, and then I do cardio before I eat anything. I never would’ve done that before [Ant-Man]. I lift weights, hopefully at least three times a week. And I’ve learned so much about how my body reacts to foods, how it reacts to exercise, and where I’m happiest and how much it affects me mentally…If I’m in this suit, running around playing a character who’s supposed to be a superhero, I just feel better. And I feel less like an imposter.”
20. Nick Lachey

Nick Lachey and his wife, Vanessa, recently moved to Hawaii, to accommodate Vanessa’s role on NCIS: Hawaii. He also spent time in Panama filming Netflix’s Perfect Match. Lachey and their kids like to do a lot of outdoor activities in all these tropical locations. Naturally, Lachey spends a lot of time at the beach, and shared this video of him walking in the ocean on Instagram. He captioned the post, “Not a bad day at the office!” Augustine Recovery reports that spending time at the beach has a lot of mental health benefits. “Surrounding yourself with nature has a calming effect that can reduce your stress levels. The beach also provides soothing sensory input from the sound of ocean waves meeting the shore and the feel of warm sand beneath your feet. Spending time at the beach can lessen nervous system arousal – something that contributes to your excess anxiety.”

The Karate Kid star opened up about his life and career in an interview with The Guardian. Macchio says that he is grateful for the career he’s been able to have and that he is at peace with his life. “Pride, and privilege. It sounds like I’m feeding you bullshit, but I’m not. It’s been a unique experience. It’s been a unique existence. How healthy is it, at the age of 60, to sit in nostalgia so much? I don’t know. I just know I’m at peace with it.”
2. Ramona Singer

The Real Housewives star shared some of her favorite workouts with Us Weekly. She says that she likes to do a variety of different things. “I’m doing a lot of combinations.

3. Julianne Moore

Actress Julianne Moore has amazing skin, which has kept her looking the same for decades. Moore shared her biggest skincare secret in an interview with The Sunday Times Style. “My mother has a lot to do with it because she wouldn’t let us go in the sun.

4. Julia Louis-Dreyfuss

Actress Julia Louis-Dreyfuss opened up about how she recovered from breast cancer in a 2019 interview with TV Week.  “I’ve always been a healthy eater and an exerciser, but now I’m even more so,” she says. “I’m kind of hyper-vigilant about it; getting a certain amount of exercise in for certain a week and trying to live as clean a diet as I possibly can. I mean, you know, within moderation!”
5. Angela Bassett
Taylor Hill/FilmMagic
Angela Bassett shared her workout routine in an interview. The Oscar-winner says that she makes sure to be consistent with her exercise, and that her workouts are determined by her diet. “I go in the morning because my workout quotient will diminish as the day goes on. Maybe Monday, Tuesday, I’ll do cardio; Wednesday, Thursday, because I’m eating protein, I’ll do strength building; and then Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, when I’m eating all that fat, then it’s about deep breathing, a massage, yoga.”
6. Christie Brinkley

Christie Brinkley shared the secrets to her good looks in an interview with Byrdie. She says that skincare is very important to her. “I start every day by exfoliating my face. That’s something I’ve done for the past 40 years. I feel like it’s really contributed to my skin feeling fresh and smooth. Forty years ago, I read an article that said men always look five years younger than women who are their same age. They contributed that to them shaving every day, and the daily exfoliating with shaving their skin makes them look younger. I was like, I’m not going to let them get away with that! I use the Authentic Skin Care Closeup Instant Wrinkle Reducer & Treatment from my skincare line because it’s gentle. The whole line was modeled after the skincare ritual I already have.”
7. Michelle Yeoh

The Oscar winner shared some of her skincare secrets in an interview. She says that protecting her skin from the sun is very important to her. “I also used to suntan back in the ’80s when it was trendy to do so. But I noticed that doing so aged my skin, so I stopped and now, I never go anywhere without slapping on sunscreen first.”
8. Sheryl Crow

Singer Sheryl Crow spends a lot of time outside. One thing she likes to do is go to the lake and do water activities. She shared this photo on Instagram of herself going boating. Crow captioned the post, “Happy Sunday everybody!! And yes, I do have a life outside of being a Milwaukee Bucks fan!”
9. Demi Moore

Demi Moore has incredible skin, and shared some of her secrets in a 2019 interview with Harper’s Bazaar. In it, she uses a Georgia Louise Lift and a sculpting stone to evenly spread the products on her face, and Moore also says that there are other benefits to doing this.  ​​“You work through all the tension in your face. It activates the blood flow in your skin. When you’re over 50 and you feel like your skin is hitting the floor, this is an incredible uplift.”
10. Nia Vardalos

Nia Vardalos is open about her struggles with her weight and health. In a 2014 interview with OaklandCountyMoms.com, she talked about her typical diet. “What I try to do in our house is we try to do things that are whole grain, and also we use tomato sauces that don’t have any preservatives in them. We have to be real. Not everyone has time to be at home and have an apron on, and make a three course meal. So, it’s just very easy I think to make healthy choices.”
11. Tom Hanks

Tom Hanks has type 2 diabetes, which means he has to take care of his health. Hanks opened up about his approach in an interview on the Sooo Many White Guys podcast. “Part of it is because of my genes and part of it is because of the horrible lifestyle that I led of eating anything. So now the first thing that I do is I try to take care of that. “I try to get, every single day, one hour of activity. That can be anything from a treadmill or a walk or a hike with a dog but it has to be one hour every single day.”
12. Seal

Singer Seal opened up about his diet in an interview with GourmetTraveler.com. “I'm vegan with pescatarian tendencies. My reason for veganism isn't to avoid eating meat, though, so if I felt like having a steak, then I'd go and have a great steak. I just haven't felt like it in the past year.”
13. Bono

The U2 frontman and humanitarian opened up about what he wants people to take away from the band’s songs in an interview with The Los Angeles Times. “Even before U2 had a record deal, we played an anti-apartheid show. We were insufferable from a very early age. (laughs) This is the arrogance of great songwriting. John Fogerty had it. Bob Dylan, Kendrick Lamar, John Lennon, Bob Marley … If U2 communicated anything, outside of the personal conversations of our songs, I hope it was: The world is more malleable than you think. These immovable objects are not immovable.”
14. Evander Holyfield

The boxer notably came out of retirement in 2020 to fight Mike Tyson. Holyfield also shares a bunch of workout videos on social media. In them, he is seen lifting weights with a trainer. The Mayo Clinic states that weight training has many benefits. “Strength training may enhance your quality of life and improve your ability to do everyday activities. Strength training can also protect your joints from injury. Building muscle also can contribute to better balance and may reduce your risk of falls. This can help you maintain independence as you age. Strength training can reduce the signs and symptoms of many chronic conditions, such as arthritis, back pain, obesity, heart disease, depression and diabetes.”
15. Kevin Costner

Kevin Costner isn’t just an outdoors guy when he’s on the set of Yellowstone. He told GQ that he spends a lot of time outside, and makes sure to stay active on a regular basis. "I love a little horseback riding, followed by taking the kids out to the tide pools and just running around looking for crabs. I've been real lucky about a lot of things in my life, but one of the things has been this ability to stay healthy. I think one of the big things that helps me is that I don't sit it out. I move. I get out there and take the biggest bite out of life that's possible."
16. Lou Diamond Phillips

Actor and singer Lou Diamond Phillips shared some of his favorite wellness and lifestyle products in an interview with New York Magazine. He says that he likes to take relaxing baths to help with his wellbeing, particularly with oils. “It wasn't until I was working on location as a director rather than an actor that I started really appreciating those things. Directing is infinitely more stressful than acting, because you’re being asked a dozen questions every hour and having to pay attention to the minutiae. There’s no rest. And at the end of the day, man, a therapeutic bath prepares me to actually get some sleep. This specific one comes from Germany and was developed by a priest who used water therapy to heal people. The movie Water Healer is about his life. He was a holistic doctor long, long before it was hip. I’ll sometimes combine it with Epsom salts, but this alone is very relaxing.”
17. Matthew Broderick

Matthew Broderick and Sarah Jessica Parker opened up about their relationship in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter. Parker says that her husband is an avid cyclist, and Broderick followed that up by talking about what it’s like to bike in New York City. “There are so many bike lanes now, and they’re safer — you’re not in traffic the way you were, so you’re not fighting for your life — the feeling is a little different. And I’m now one of the curmudgeons who doesn’t like the aggressive cyclists. Sometimes I’m aggressive. I’m in a transitional period.”
18. Antonio Banderas
Borja B. Hojas/Getty Images
Actor Antonio Banderas notably had a heart attack in 2017. Not long after that, he opened up about his recovery in an interview with EverythingZoomer.com. “Well, to follow all the prescriptions the doctors give and the advice they give. I was a smoker, and it was gone like this [snaps fingers]. Cold turkey, stop. That’s rule No. 1. Then, exercise for me is very important. Don’t be in situations of stress — that’s very important. That’s more complicated for me. I live in situations of stress practically all the time. Take your Aspirin every morning, so as to have your blood a little bit more liquid. If you follow all of those things, you do every six months your stress test, you’re going to be fine. But you have to do it. And drinking — not too much. If you drink a little bit of red wine a day, fine. But that’s it.”
19. Jon Bon Jovi

Singer and Bon Jovi frontman, Jon Bon Jovi, shared some of his favorite workouts in this video on Instagram. Bon Jovi does a variety of things to stay in shape. In it, he is seen going on a run, lifting weights, doing sit-ups, and enjoying a pool day with his family. Bon Jovi is also a charitable person, as the Instagram post is advertising donating to World Central Kitchen. 
20. Gloria Estefan

Singer and actress, Gloria Estefan, shared some of her wellness secrets in an interview with Parade. “Exercise is crucial for me,” she says. “I have hardware in my back (my band called me Robo-pop), so it’s very important for me to keep active. I do an hour on the elliptical or some other kind of cardio. And I do strength training with rubber bands. My muscles will bulk up a lot, so I like to keep them long and limber. Like most women, I am really trying to stay in top shape. And especially at this decade, it gets a little more difficult.”

4. Cher

Pop icon Cher has amazing skin. And she spilled some of her secrets in an interview. “In the early ‘70s I developed what is called adult acne.

5. Jane Fonda

Jane Fonda makes working out a priority. In an interview, she says that she makes sure to stay fit. “I have to keep moving, because when you get older, it's more critical than when you're young.

6. Meredith Marks

The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City star shared her nighttime routine with Us Weekly. She says that getting enough sleep is important to her. “It’s hard for me to like settle down and it’s also hard for me to stay asleep during the night. So, I like to sleep with an eye mask because it forces me to keep my eyes closed. If I could open them, I’m going to open them and like start working on my phone or doing something. I’m a restless person. I’m wired. I usually have like a glass of wine too. That usually helps a little.”
7. Laverne Cox

Actress, host, and activist, Laverne Cox, makes sure to workout on a regular basis. She tells InStyle that she also wants other trans people to have a safe space to exercise. "I've talked to trans folks who haven't felt comfortable at a certain gym. They don't feel like [the gym is] inclusive or they're not supported, they're singled out, or harassed there. So having this space be inclusive for people of color or LGBTQ folks, is crucial."
8. Padma Lakshmi
Sean Zanni/Getty Images
TV host Padma Lakshmi tells Women’s Health that she had to pick up some new workouts. “I started going to Pilates a few years ago, because my chiropractor recommended it for my back. Pilates changed my body. It made me strong in places I didn’t know I needed to be. I have a butt now that I didn’t have during my modeling career!”
9. Lenny Kravitz
Steve Granitz/FilmMagic
Rock legend and actor Lenny Kravitz opened up about his diet to Men’s Health. Kravitz is vegan and makes sure to be conscious of what he eats. “I’m very careful about what I put into my body and how I take care of my body.

I do that as soon as I get out of bed."
12. Wayne Brady
Phillip Faraone/FilmMagic
The actor and singer opened up about his struggle with depression in an interview with Verywell Mind. Brady revealed that his ex-wife, Mandie Taketa, inspired him to get help. "She was the one who said, 'Wayne, I love you, and our daughter loves you, and our family loves you. And this is the path you go down when you don't want to live. And we are concerned, and I cannot stand by and watch you ignore this.’ Like many people in the African American culture, I grew up thinking that therapy was a bad word or therapy's not for me—therapy's for white people, therapy's for crazy people. So it took a lot of work to open my eyes to see that asking for help is not a weakness. In fact, that's a strength, saying I need this. That's a superpower.”
13. Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson

Actor and former wrestler, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson does a lot of strength training to stay in shape. He shared this video of himself doing bicep curls on Instagram.

Taking cold hot showers has been a good recovery ritual.”
16. Kevin Bacon

The Footloose star shared some of his favorite workouts in an interview with WebMD. He says that he does a variety of things to stay in shape. “I hike, I lift weights, I do calisthenics.

I want to keep on enjoying a healthy life, and that means sticking to good eating and exercise habits.”

It’s hard to believe that Jennifer Lopez, Demi Moore, Catherine Zeta-Jones, and these other hot Hollywood stars are eligible for an AARP discount. Over 50, they are aging incredibly gracefully not only due to their genetics, but devotion to health, fitness, and wellness. Celebwell has rounded up the best tips, tricks, and tactics these over-50 stars live by in order to look decades younger than their numerical age. Read on to see the photos that prove they work—and to get summer-ready yourself, don't miss these essential 30 Best-Ever Celebrity Bikini Photos!
1. Jennifer Lopez

"I'm in the best shape of my life," Jennifer Lopez, 52, recently admitted in a May 2021 cover story for InStyle's The Beauty Issue. While she’s always been a fitness inspiration, her workouts have become more efficient as she has aged. "In my 20s and 30s I used to work out but not like I do now," she revealed. "It's not that I work out more; I just work out harder and smarter. And it doesn't take me as long as it did in the past. I do it more for my health than I do for looks, which is funny. When you do things for the right reasons, you actually look better!"
2. Heather Graham

Heather Graham, 51, revealed a few of her stay-fit secrets to Refinery29. Not only does she avoid complex carbohydrates—white flour and sugar—but she does a lot of yoga (sometimes multiple workouts a day) and pilates.
3. Demi Moore

Demi Moore, a longtime yogi, recently upped her workout game with the help of at-home workout classes via The Mirror. The 58-year-old also enjoys going on hikes with her family, eats healthy, and doesn’t drink alcohol or do drugs.
4. Catherine Zeta-Jones

Unlike pretty much every other Hollywood star, Catherine Zeta-Jones, 51, doesn’t have a personal trainer. Instead, the Welsh actress trains herself. “I don’t have a trainer. Crazy, right? But I don’t need anyone to motivate me,” she told InStyle. “I love exercise, even things like the elliptical machine and stretching. It’s a legacy of dancing all those years.” According to Catherine she works “at least 45 minutes a day, seven days a week” with some of her favorite workouts being swimming, tennis, peloton, and tap dancing.
5. Paulina Porzikova

Supermodel Paulina Porzikova, 56, didn’t start exercising until she was 40, but now breaks a sweat almost daily. “I try to exercise at least 3-5 days a week. And you know what? I frickin hate it,” she recently revealed in one of her workout videos. “I don’t like to sweat and huff and puff and hurt. If sitting on a couch, eating cake, drinking wine and reading did the same for me as exercise, there would be no contest. BUT. I have come to find out that ‘working out’ is that perfect little pill everyone is looking for. It makes you feel good, look good, good for your brain and body - a small miracle that has to be paid of by a little discomfort.” Her favorite workouts include dancing, rowing, and pilates.
6. Kelly Ripa

Kelly Ripa, 50, refuses to skip a workout "I work out seven days a week," she told In the Know. "And I try to workout an hour and a half a day, no matter what — whether I'm working or not. If I'm working, maybe I'll start it a little bit later or a little bit earlier, depending on what day of the week it is. But I am very religious about my fitness."
7. Salma Hayek

While Salma Hayek, 54, has revealed a number of times that she hates to work out, she does stay moving and has also discovered a creative way to engage her muscles. "Some people have the discipline to exercise in the morning, and I didn't develop that," she told People. "I work with a woman in London who taught me how to hold my body in a way where the muscles are activated all day long. So even when you brush your teeth, you're working the muscles," she continued. "It's restorative yoga. She taught me how to tone [my muscles] without clenching them. You relax them and focus on the parts that need to be used, but never with tension. If you're aware of your body, you'd be surprised by the effect it can have."

Jennifer Aniston has always maintained one of the fittest bodies in Hollywood, mostly due to her devotion to healthy diet and exercise. She once revealed to InStyle that she works out “almost every day, at least five or six days a week." And “variety is key” when it comes to the 52-year-old’s workout. "Mixing it up is always fun because that way you know you're excited, and it's muscle confusion. It keeps your body awake," she told Women’s Health. Her favorite workouts include cycling, yoga, barre method, Body by Simone and more recently, boxing. "It's the longest workout I've actually stayed with consistently other than yoga," she told InStyle. "There's something about the mental aspect of boxing — the drills, your brain has to work, you're not just sitting on a bike. It's amazing."

Elizabeth Hurley, 56, doesn’t work out. “I don’t exercise, but I am very active,” she admitted  to Harper’s Bazaar. She clarified to  Us Weekly in October 2018 that she stays in shape by “being active” which includes “going for walks, stretching, maybe a little yoga or a little Pilates. But I don’t like high impact, high energy sports. I don’t actually think they do you much good. As long as you get your heart rate to the rate you need it to get, which is a fast walk. But you need to do a bit of it.” She does count steps, however, “I walk every day, so I try and hit my 10,000 steps a day and I do some stretching every day. And then sometimes I do a bit more, but that’s enough for me really.”

Cindy Crawford, 55, might not be making workout videos these days, but she is still engaging in regular strength and weight training workouts, posting her clips on social media. She also boxes with her husband, golfs, and surfs. She recently told Red magazine that her workouts have evolved from her supermodel days. Instead of working out until she drops, she takes it easier. “Now my goal is not to get hurt. So, I have added a lot more stretching and Pilates, and I don’t feel as compelled to do those tough workouts any more,” she said.

For Halle Berry, 54, fitness is simply a part of her lifestyle. You just have to have the will and the desire. And you have to make up your mind that it's important. That's the hard work that people “always been fit, and have always thought about fitness and taking care of my body,” her approach has evolved. “It's only changed in terms of how I've been adding to my fitness regimen. It used to just be working out with weights, and then I got into Pilates, and then I got into yoga, and now I'm into martial arts."

Stankovic does squats to keep herself in shape, as you can see in her Instagram video. Piedmont says that this exercise has a lot of health benefits. “Whether you’re hoping to tone your muscles, strengthen your core or just improve overall health, squats are one of the best exercises you can do. Although the movements appear relatively simple, squats can take time to master. Joel Hardwick, ACSM EP-C, EIM2, an exercise physiologist at Piedmont Atlanta Fitness Center, says practice will pay off…Hardwick explains that squats are a compound, multi-joint movement, which means they exercise several muscle groups. When you perform a squat, you work your calves, quads, hamstrings, glutes, core and part of your back.”

            
                She Does Lunges

Stankovic is also seen doing lunges in her Instagram video. The Mayo Clinic reports that lunges are very beneficial to do. “The lunge is a body resistance exercise that works the leg muscles. Specifically, the lunge targets the quadriceps and the hamstring muscles in the thigh, the gluteal muscles in the buttock, and to a lesser extent, the lower leg muscles. The lunge is a great conditioning exercise for many sports, especially those that involve lunging movements, such as tennis, basketball or soccer.”

            
                She Does Cardio

Stankovic likes to do cardio workouts to keep herself in shape. She shared this video of herself doing fast box jumps in different directions on Instagram. Stankovic captioned it, “Morning cardio challenge.” Cardio exercises have a lot of benefits. The Cleveland Clinic says, “When you work your heart and other muscles of your body during cardio exercise, this increases oxygen supply to your whole body, allowing all muscles to work harder and more efficiently. Over time, regular cardio exercise allows your muscles to adapt to an increased workload, making regular activities seem easier.”

Stankovic shares a lot of her favorite workouts in an Instagram story highlight. In some of the stories, she is seen doing Pilates exercises on a reformer. Pilates is very beneficial. The Cleveland Clinic says, “One of the reasons Pilates is such a good workout is that it specifically focuses on building core strength.”

Stankovic likes to strength train to keep herself in shape. She shared this Instagram story of herself using dumbbells. ACE Fitness says that strength training and using weights has a lot of health benefits. “Strength training with heavy weights improves muscle definition. Muscle definition occurs as the result of muscles remaining in a state of semi-contraction and heavy strength training recruits the larger type II muscle fibers responsible for a muscle’s appearance.”

French is seen doing deadlifts in her Instagram post. This exercise has a lot of benefits. NASM says, “A Romanian deadlift is a hip-hinge pattern that works the hamstrings and glutes. It is a form of deadlift with noticeably less bend in the knee, leading to greater hamstring engagement than traditional deadlifts. The move was introduced to the masses in the 90s by Romanian weightlifter Nicu Vlad (an Olympic and World Weightlifting champion) and his coach Dragomir Cioroslan. The two invented the move to help Nicu strengthen his back for the clean and jerk. Today, RDLs are commonly used to strengthen the posterior chain, using the core muscles to stabilize and the hamstrings and glutes to drive the movement.”

            
                She Does Lunges

Another exercise that French is seen doing in her Instagram post is lunges. NASM says that they are very beneficial. “The lunge is a versatile, simple and effective movement for lower body training. Various positions, planes of motion and speeds can all yield different training adaptations for the exerciser. Lunges are the gift that keeps on giving!”

Burns calories. Strengthens your core. Improves lower body strength. Enhances stability and balance. Betters your posture.”

French is seen doing hamstring curls in her Instagram post. According to The Mayo Clinic, hamstring curls are very beneficial. “The seated hamstring curl is an exercise you can do with a weight machine to work the muscles in the back of the thigh. As the name implies, the seated hamstring curl targets the hamstring muscles here in the back of the thigh. Strong hamstring muscles help to protect your ligaments in the knee.”

            
                She Does Hip Thrusts

French shared this video on Instagram of herself doing hip thrusts. She captioned it, “Hip Thrusts are no doubt one of the best exercises for building your Glutes but of course with any exercise, the form has to be correct for you to see the maximum benefits…✖️ Feet too far forwards will engage your hamstrings more ✖️ Feet too close to you will engage your quads more ✔️ Feet placed so your calves are vertical will engage your glutes more.”
