Why is Jared Leto so young? Stars who don't age

Anette Larkin not only looks much younger than her 70 years, but also claims that she is not sick and has the energy of a 25-year-old

Raw foodist looks 30 years younger

Annette Larkins (71) looks no more than 40-45 years old, and is often even mistaken for the daughter of her 54-year-old husband. The woman claims that she looks so young because of her lifestyle and special diet.

In her youth, Annette ate a lot of meat, as her husband at the time worked as a butcher. But one day, a woman who was frying bacon for breakfast suddenly realized that what was lying and splashing in the pan simply ceased to be food for her. “I began to hate the sight, smell and taste of meat, because it was a corpse - dead flesh! From that day on, I no longer had any desire to eat meat,” said Annette. She shocked her family when she announced she would never do it again. Then the relatives thought that she had gone crazy. After all, they are like everyone else" normal people“In the 60s, they couldn’t imagine their diet without meat.

The basis of her diet is fruits, vegetables, nuts, grains, sprouts and herbs. Larkins is passionate about gardening and grows much of what she eats herself. Anette calls personally grown vegetables and fruits “the fountain of youth.” She also advises collecting rainwater, Larkins herself drinks it and uses it to water the garden.

Bad heredity forced the woman to be so passionate about her health and nutrition. Anette experienced several deaths of her relatives from disease. Her maternal grandmother died of breast cancer at the age of 36, as did several of her sisters. At the age of 47, this disease also took the life of her mother, and her mother’s sister died of diabetes after amputation of her leg. Their father had diabetes and cancer.


Annette is often mistaken for the daughter of her husband, who is much younger than her. She dreams that he will someday take his health seriously.

Larkins hopes that her husband will one day be inspired by her example. His appearance leaves much to be desired, and he also suffers from diabetes mellitus. Because of his illness, the man is forced to constantly take medication, while Annette doesn’t even take aspirin.

Annette makes good money from her youthful appearance - she makes DVDs and writes books in which she teaches raw food nutrition and maintaining youth. In particular, she is the author of the popular book “The Path to Health.”

Japanese women's idol

Former model Masako Mizutani (45) became popular in 2009 after a Japanese television program where she surprised visitors with her blooming appearance. The Japanese TV sensation has been dubbed the “forever young lady.” And after her photographs began to appear in women's magazines, Masako finally became an idol for middle-aged Japanese women.

The woman in the photo is 45 years old. In Japan, Masako Mizutani has long been nicknamed the Forever Young Lady.

Now Mizutani lives in Nagoya, shoots for magazines, gives interviews, participates in television shows, advertises cosmetic brands, maintains a blog where she talks about her secrets of beauty and youth, skin care products, and gives recommendations on style and makeup. Skeptics believe that in her case it was not without plastic surgery, Masako herself claims that she has never done them in her life and owes her youth solely to daily, consistent self-care from her youth.

They write that she devotes five hours a day to her appearance. And in the English version of her blog you can find the following tips for youth and beauty: “Eat healthy and fresh food, preferably fruits and vegetables, dairy products and nuts, which nourish your skin. Eat balanced meals in small portions four times a day. Drink plenty of water to flush out toxins. The older you get, the lighter your makeup and eye shadow should become, do not use too bright or dark colors. Use vitamin E creams to keep your skin soft and firm. Always use before going outside in any weather. sunscreen on all parts of the body exposed to the sun. Every night before going to bed, cleanse, tone and moisturize your skin. Make it a daily routine. Do it regularly physical exercise, get enough sleep and don’t smoke.”

Masako (pictured on the right) spends five hours a day working on her appearance. The result is literally obvious - the woman looks like younger sister to his daughter

The Japanese woman also advocates the abundant inclusion of healthy unsaturated fats in the diet, which are necessary to nourish the skin. These are found in fatty fish, nuts, avocados, and olive oil.

Grandmother Svetlana Bondarchuk

In Russia, the wife of director Fyodor Bondarchuk, Svetlana (44), is striking with her youthfulness. She has been in the same shape for a long time: with a height of 176 cm, her weight is 60 kg. Looking at Svetlana, it is impossible to believe that she is already a grandmother. Let us remind you that the grandson of the editor of the magazine “Hello!” presented by son Sergei and his wife Tatiana.

Svetlana Bondarchuk recently became a grandmother, but few would dare call her at least somewhat elderly

Eight years ago, she gave up meat, believing that it was better for her health (meat, according to the woman, contains a lot of cholesterol). And a business woman and a fashionista always eat according to the same system. “I always have a hearty breakfast, I even allow myself croissants. During the day - vegetable salad, and for dinner - salad and hot food. I eat very slowly, my brain manages to receive a signal of satiety before the end of dinner, and I don’t overeat,” Svetlana shares her secret.

Great fit and fresh look allows Bondarchuk to post her everyday photos on Instagram without fear of criticism. In a sweater and jeans, Svetlana almost seems like a student. And recently she posted a photo from twenty years ago, recalling her modeling past. Many of her subscribers noted that in twenty years Bondarchuk has practically not changed and has even become more beautiful. "Very beautiful photo! It’s great that she hasn’t changed at all, only her gaze has become deeper!” - wrote Oleg Gazmanov’s wife Marina.

In some of her everyday photos, Svetlana looks like a schoolgirl

When Svetlana posted her vacation photos in a bikini, they created a real sensation. In them, the director’s wife delighted fans with an unexpected shot, playfully showing off her butt. Instagram readers did not fail to note that Bondarchuk looks simply amazing for his age: a flat tummy and firm, toned buttocks without a hint of cellulite. Svetlana’s subscribers immediately wrote that her beautiful figure is “very motivating” and that “other adult aunts should see what a woman should really look like.” “Everyone would like to be such “aunts”! Svetlana, continue to post everything you think is necessary! Beauty will save the world,” one of the subscribers complimented Bondarchuk.

Forever young Summer

Actor and singer Jared Leto, at 41, manages to look 25. There are practically no wrinkles on his face. Many people are trying to reveal the secret of Leto’s youth, but he himself seems to take his appearance for granted. However, at the same time he leads a healthy lifestyle.

Jerad Leto's appearance is unique: at 41 years old - not a single wrinkle

Commenting on his appearance, the actor and musician says: “I still have many vices, but alcohol is not one of them. I think it's all about good sleep and diet. If you travel a lot and don't sleep, you won't last long, that's for sure. I lead a pretty healthy lifestyle and I think that helps me a lot. I’ve been on this path for a long time: I’ve been a strict vegetarian for 20 years and generally take care of myself. This probably helps keep me well preserved.”

The leader of the group 30 Seconds to Mars devotes quite a lot of time to sports. “I love riding my bike over all sorts of hills in the wild. I never take my iPod with me, I like to listen to the sounds of nature. I use these moments to get rid of the music. I write music so often that I don’t even need to listen to it,” says Jared.

It is worth noting that Jared’s philosophy of life protects him from stress and unnecessary worries: “You have to be willing to make mistakes. I don't have to come to the office every day, in that regard I'm lucky. I also don't have to conform to any dress code. Usually my look is dictated by the movie I'm in, or the tour I'm doing, or something stupid in my life. So I don't take it seriously. A couple of years ago I visited photographer Terry Richardson and said I needed a haircut. I asked if he wanted to cut my hair and Terry gave me a mohawk. So this decision was quite spontaneous. By that time, I hadn’t cut my hair for a year.”

Note that Jared's food system is quite ambiguous. On the one hand, he is a strict vegetarian (by the way, at one time he was called by the animal rights organization PETA the sexiest vegetarian in the world), and sometimes he is even considered a vegan and even a raw foodist, but for the sake of some roles he embarked on very bold experiments with own weight. So, in order to play John Lennon’s killer Mark Chapman in the 2006 film “Chapter 27,” Leto gained 30 kilograms, completely visually transforming himself. After filming, in order to regain his previous weight, Jared switched to a liquid diet consisting of water, lemon juice, maple syrup and cayenne pepper. And for the film “Dallas Buyers Club” (which will be released this fall), in which Leto plays a transsexual dying of AIDS, the actor literally turned into a skeleton. “I just didn’t eat,” the already slight actor explained how he managed to lose another 14 kilograms in a few weeks. He began to weigh only 52 kilograms with a height of 175 centimeters, although normal weight for men of this height - 67-73 kilograms. “I did something similar with my weight, but this time it was different. For me, it wasn't a question of how much weight I could lose, the main thing was to convey the character's personality. People have always fasted to achieve a meditative state, so I hope I can do it too. Fasting is not necessarily a bad thing,” Leto commented on his transformation. However, neither radical weight gain nor extreme weight loss undermined the health of the actor, who, it seems, will surprise with his youthful appearance for many years to come.

The Karate Kid remains a young man

Another “forever” young Hollywood artist, albeit of a lower caliber, is Ralph Macchio (51), who became famous all over the world after the release of the first film “Karate Kid” in 1984.

When Ralph Macchio played a teenager in the film "Karate Kid", he was already 23 years old

At the time of filming, Ralph was already 23 years old, but this did not stop him from playing a schoolboy, because he looked much younger than his age. After the wild success of the first film about Daniel De La Russo's attempts to master karate and survive in new school Several sequels followed. Thanks to his youthful appearance, Macchio became one of the most famous teen idols of the 1980s, appearing on the covers of leading youth magazines such as Tiger Beat, 16, and Beat Teen.

However, despite his youthful appearance, since the mid-90s, Macchio's appearances in films have become sporadic - in episodic or supporting roles, notably in A Good Night to Die and Beer League. In 2005, Macchio played himself in the TV series Entourage. Macchio preferred a happy career family life- when he was 15 years old, he met his future wife Phyllis Fiero. They married in 1987 and have two children: Julia, now 21, and 17-year-old Daniel.

Ralph's youthful appearance has not faded over the years, and at 50 he continues to look much younger. Macchio with his wife Phyllis Fiero, daughter Julia and son Daniel

Macchio doesn’t give any special advice on how to take care of himself, and in general he doesn’t talk much about his appearance and, it seems, doesn’t really take care of it...

Mixed blood

The actor Wentworth Miller (41) is also a wonderful example of the “eternal youth”. He is an openly gay man who came out in August of this year.

Actor Wentworth Miller, who recently turned 41, also looks great for his age. This photo was taken in 2008, when he was already 36 years old.

It is unlikely that this had any effect on his appearance, but the amount of blood that was mixed in him did. Wentworth's father is African American with Jamaican, Somali, German-Jewish, Native American (Cherokee) and British ancestry, and his mother is of Russian, French, Syrian, Dutch and Lebanese ancestry. It is quite possible that it was this burning mix that affected the actor’s appearance and genetics.

In addition to the desire for a variety of professions, he loves to change his images: we have seen Jared Leto as plump, and very thin, and blond, and brunette, and bald. The only thing that doesn’t change about Leto is his face, which remains young regardless of the number of times he spends sleepless nights in bars and clubs. How does he do this? The question remained open for a long time, but today Jared revealed the secret of his youth.

Jared Leto is an amazing person in every way. He is an actor, a director, a singer, a Swede, a reaper, and a trumpet player...

I don't know who makes these collages, but it looks funny. It's amazing what a little human blood can do to your face

- Leto, 44, joked on Instagram, hinting that he drinks the blood of babies. But if we move from jokes to reality, one of the secrets of good appearance Summer considers vegetarianism and moderation in food consumption. Sometimes, however, he has to step over his principles and overeat for the sake of a role - he recently undertook this “feat” for the role of the Joker in “Suicide Squad”:

I'm trying to gain a lot of weight. That is, I eat every two hours and absorb tons of food! Such preparation for a role can be a useful, but at the same time destructive process. As a rule, the body changes forever after this.

Lucy Liu turned 49 today. recent years For thirty years, the actress has changed only a little, but over the past twenty years she has not changed at all. ELLE is about celebrities who seem to know the elixir of youth.

Damn, it's hard to believe, but Lucy Liu will turn fifty in a year! What is the secret and happiness of the actress, how was she able to maintain her youth? It turns out there are no secrets. Except Pilates and running - Lucy loves both of them very much. Besides (of course), no bad habits, but at the same time complete freedom in choosing food. The actress admits that she has never had problems with weight and, in principle, is prone to moderate meals. Lucky.

Cruise has been haunted by various rumors throughout his career, including those that explain the actor’s incredible youthfulness. The tabloids have repeatedly claimed that Tom uses the services of plastic surgeons. Even a specific name was mentioned - Ivo Pitangi, a master in this field: his clients were Jacqueline Kennedy and Frank Sinatra. The actor himself says that it’s all about sports. Rock climbing, running, rocking, yachting - maximum loads (under the supervision of specialists, of course) allow the body to maintain flexibility. The day begins with running and tennis for at least an hour and a half. Plus a strict diet - oatmeal, vegetables, fruits, chicken. As for the face, they are again talking about plastic, but it is possible that it’s all about proper care And complete absence bad habits. However, perhaps this is not the case external reasons, and in the internal ones: “I know how to plan my life. I know how to prepare, save energy, accumulate it and use it at the right time. Think about it." We'll definitely think about it, thanks, Tom.

Walking on fresh air, long sleep, contrast shower, diet under the supervision of a personal specialist - this is what allows Gwyneth not to age. There are suspicions that under such conditions anyone will look like a cucumber. The actress also exhausts herself with trips to the dermatologist, who monitors the condition of her facial skin, and allows herself to relax quite well on the weekends. A glass of wine and even a cigarette - Gwyneth speaks about these excesses without hesitation. In September, the actress turned 45. It’s hard to believe.

The actor and musician is often asked how he manages to look almost half his age, and Jared invariably answers that it’s all about vegetarianism, yoga, cycling... “I have a lot of shortcomings and unnecessary habits, but alcohol is definitely not on this list. I think the reason is good sleep and proper nutrition", he believes. Even the experiments with weight that Leto went through twice for filming (for the film “Chapter 27” he gained 30 kilograms, for “Dallas Buyers Club” he lost 14 kilograms relative to his usual weight) did not affect his fresh appearance. By the way, Jared’s older brother Shannon, who turned 47 in March, also looks very young. Perhaps it's all about genes.

Stephanie has nothing to hide. According to the singer, the key to eternal youth is sports, a strict diet and children's skin lotions. Moreover, by sports the artist does not mean yoga and Pilates, but hard options - rocking and boxing. As for baby lotions, Gwen is convinced that they cause minimal harm to the skin. In terms of nutrition, everything is quite predictable: a minimum of flour, a lot of water, fruits and vegetables. In her youth, by the way, Stephanie looked rather militant, wearing sweatpants and a T-shirt, but in the end she switched to feminine outfits, which only gave her freshness.

Avril began her musical career as a schoolgirl at the age of 18, but today she looks the same as she did in 2002. How does she manage to do this? big question. Perhaps it's a matter of stable habits. Lavigne still wears black eyeliner, goes out with tousled hair, and prefers a rock style of dress. However, despite the eternal rebellion, the singer categorically does not accept bad habits: she does not smoke, does not drink alcohol or drugs. But Avril is very familiar with sports and regularly appears in the gym, although she doesn’t really like it.

Recently, the Oscar-winning Hollywood actor and frontman of the group “30 Seconds to Mars” supported Ukraine at his concert at the Sports Palace, and after that the actor walked along the Maidan, presented films and spoke to journalists about his views on life.

DOES HE KNOW WHAT HIS LAST NAME MEANS IN RUSSIAN? - Yes, my friends. It means "summer". Which, of course, is very nice, but everyone who knows this word in Russian considers it their duty to surprise me with such news. Welcome to this club! WHO DOES HE CONSIDER HIMSELF: A MUSICIAN OR AN ACTOR? - To be honest, I don’t think about myself very much at all to consider myself someone. There is work, and I do it. And when I disappear... just erase my name from everywhere. The less they remember about me, the better. ABOUT THE FACT THAT NOT EVERYTHING IN LIFE IS SO SMOOTH - I just flew back from the States, it’s night there now, and I’m terribly sleepy, but I have to give an interview. A slight cough has been tormenting me for two months now. Or here’s another thing: I grew up in a very poor family. I was born in Louisiana, my brother, my mother and I lived on welfare. Do you know what this is? Grocery cards to buy food in the store. Perhaps all this will bring relief to those who consider me so lucky. ABOUT THE SECRETS OF SUCCESS - Of course, in all this there was a certain amount of luck and maybe a little talent, but the main part is
hard work. Although from the outside it doesn’t seem so: people see the result, not the process. HOW DOES HE MANAGE TO LOOK FRESH? - Good diet. I think it all depends on how you feel about yourself. We take care of ourselves, eat well, we have healthy sleep. At the same time, we travel a lot, and the schedule is very tight... You know, I think it’s all sleep, food, mood and, of course, the blood of virgins. Well, or not necessarily virgins. ABOUT BLONDES - Well, if we talk about blondes, then, perhaps, the most beautiful was Grace Kelly. She was perfect. Well, Scarlett Johansson stands out among modern blondes. ON DRUG AND PROSTITUTION LEGALIZATION - I think people can do whatever they want in their own home as long as it doesn't harm others. But if I lived in Amsterdam, I wouldn’t want to see these coffee shops and these prostitutes around me, because against the backdrop of such beautiful city they look like piles of crap. I don't care if it's legal or not, but it looks like a pigsty... ABOUT THE SLOGAN "LIVE FAST, DIE YOUNG" - Maybe living a little longer would be nice. My slogan is “Live fast, die old.” ABOUT LIFE - I realized that I didn’t understand a damn thing! And every year I understand this more and more clearly. Apparently, when I turn a hundred years old, I will understand that I am dumb as a stump!
