Celebrities Who Don’t Seem To Age (These Photos Of Paul Rudd Were Taken 30 Years Apart)
Often, an old photo of a celebrity will show a significant difference from how they look today. The changes are gradual enough that fans can forget how youthful they once looked! Alas, time's constant march works its magic on all of us. Or does it?
When it comes to these celebrities, they aged in such minor and imperceptible ways that it's legitimately difficult to say for sure if they've aged at all!
Keanu Reeves
At long last, that gray seen in Keanu Reeves' beard gives us some evidence that the passage of time has any effect on him whatsoever.
Because if it weren't for that, there would otherwise not be a way to tell that these photos were taken 30 years apart. Maybe the John Wick star got tired of those theories that he's some time-traveling immortal.
Paul Rudd
If he weren't wearing glasses and sporting some stubble in this photo from November 2022, it would be hard to tell Paul Rudd apart from himself in a photo taken a staggering 25 years earlier.
Everything from the lines on his face to his hairline look similar enough to the Ant-Man actor's younger self to fool even those who remember when he was getting started.
Jennifer Aniston
There are some subtle differences between these pictures of Jennifer Aniston from 2022 and 1990, respectively, but they're certainly not what is usually seen after 32 years of aging.
Whatever the Friends star has been doing in that time, it's obviously been working well for her. Her face is simply ageless.
Tom Cruise
Tom Cruise never seems to stop moving in those Mission Impossible movies, and judging by these photos; it seems that he's even been able to outrun time. After all, who would have guessed that they were taken 32 years apart?
That said, if it turns out that the secret to staying youthful is to spend your days performing death-defying stunts like him, the wrinkles seem like a small price to pay.
Mila Kunis
While Mila Kunis' facial features have become more defined as she's grown up, it's worth remembering that she was only 14 years old when she auditioned for That '70s Show.
Although she was slightly older than that when the retro photo at right was taken in 1999, the fact that her face looks so similar to the days she hadn't finished growing yet is pretty uncanny.
Beyoncé
Despite the 19-year difference between these photos, Beyoncé looks very much like she did back when she released her first solo record in 2003.
Her face looks as smooth as ever, and the only visible lines we can see are the same asymmetrical dimples on her cheeks she had back then.
Sandra Bullock
If anything, Sandra Bullock's facial features have only become more chiseled, beautiful, and timeless since she first found stardom with 1994's Speed.
That suggests she's maintained an admirable lifestyle and kept active in the 28 years since that movie came out, which has obviously done wonders for her youthful appearance.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
Joseph Gordon-Levitt has always had a little bit of a baby face, and that's certainly made him age gracefully in the 20 years between these photos.
Indeed, the only change visible here is that the movie star looks more comfortable on camera than he did back in 2001 when he was finishing up 3rd Rock From the Sun. He has simply not aged.
Tina Fey
It's hard to believe that these two images of the hilarious actress and comedian Tina Fey were taken 20 years apart!
Nonetheless, they were, and aside from changing her hairstyle and getting new glasses, it's hard to identify even one way that Fey looks different from when she attended the Austin Powers: Goldmember premiere in 2002.
Will Smith
In this photo from December of 2022, Will Smith's face is a little less smooth than it was back in his Fresh Prince of Bel-Air days. But that's basically the only hint that he's aged a day.
And considering that the Fresh Prince photo was taken all the way back in 1996, that's a pretty subtle difference for what's supposed to amount to 26 years of aging for the movie star.
Elijah Wood
While it's clear that Elijah Wood looks different than he did back in 2001, he likely wouldn't if he decided not to grow facial hair or change his hairstyle since then.
Because when it comes to the shape and overall look of his face, Wood in 2021 looked almost exactly the same as he did during his starring role in The Lord of The Rings series.
Jennifer Lopez
The difference in camera quality from 1997 to 2022 can make it a little hard to tell, but the only visible change in Jennifer Lopez is that her face is slightly less round.
Those sharper features suggest the pop star and actress has taken serious care of her body in the 25 years between these photos, but her face otherwise hasn't shown a single sign of aging.
Rob Lowe
Comparing these two photos, it's clear that Rob Lowe has since acquired a few extra lines around his eyes and forehead. Still, it's remarkable how little the veteran actor has aged.
What's so remarkable about that? That older photo was taken in 1985. In 37 years, the biggest change we can see is that he got better at growing facial hair.
Rihanna
At most, there is maybe a tiny wrinkle or two around her mouth that someone could find if they squint. Still, Rihanna looks remarkably similar to how she did when she first started making pop hits at the age of 17.
And since that happened 17 years ago, she's barely aged at all.
Halle Berry
Halle Berry's nose and face appear a little less round now than they did back in 1989, but that's the only physical way it seems she's changed at all in the 34 years since.
And maybe this has to do with the chic hairstyle she wore in 2022, but the Oscar-winning actress almost looked younger then than she did when she was 23.
Eminem
Looking closely, a few wrinkles around Eminem's eyes can be spotted in this 2022 photo from his induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
But while the rapper stopped dyeing his hair blonde and grown a beard since he first came on the scene, that's the only subtle hint that Marshall Mathers has physically aged at all. That's saying something since these photos were taken 23 years apart.
Mariah Carey
Other than straightening her hair and gaining a little more roundness in her face, it's really hard to notice many ways that pop diva Mariah Carey has changed since 1991.
And since we're talking about a whole 31 years by the time the first photo was taken, that seems like some absolutely magnificent aging by anyone's standards.
Shakira
Shakira's face appears a little rounder in more recent photos than it did back in the year 2000, but there don't appear to be any other real differences that reveal themselves here.
And considering that it's been over 20 years since she won her first Latin Grammys back then, she's hardly aged at all.
Adam Levine
If Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine hadn't added some tattoos to his neck in the time since his 2004 appearance at the premiere of Spider-Man 2, it probably wouldn't be hard to convince someone that these photos were taken in the same year.
But in actuality, 17 years passed between these pictures. And from the looks of it, his facial hair hadn't even changed since his band's early days.
Keira Knightley
It may look like these photos of Keira Knightley were taken just days apart, but the reality is that a child could be born and reach adulthood in the time between them.
That's right, the one on the right comes from all the way back in 2003, and it seems that the actress hasn't aged a day since then.
Pharrell Williams
Here is the hip hop producer and pop hitmaker performing live in 2019, as compared with a photo from 2004.
But while Pharrel Williams certainly has far more achievements to his name now than he did back then, his face looks as youthful as it did when he first started building his buzz.
Eva Mendes
Maybe some differences between Eva Mendes' look in 2003 and how she looked in 2022 would become more obvious if she was put under a microscope, but that's what it would likely take.
And that wouldn't normally be necessary with someone when comparing photos taken about 20 years apart, so that speaks to how little the actress has aged.
Idris Elba
Idris Elba's facial hair is starting to develop a few gray patches, but that's about the only way it's clear that this classy photo of him from 2022 was taken a whole 19 years after the other one.
There's also a subtle difference in his jowls, but even someone who just crawled out from under a rock for the first time since 2003 should have no problems identifying the British actor.
Gabrielle Union
Aside from her hairstyle and makeup, it's very hard to identify a real difference between how Gabrielle Union looked in 2001 and how she looked in 2022.
Some people are simply blessed with ageless beauty, and from the looks of it, the veteran actress is definitely one of those people.
Andrew Garfield
Some might think that Andrew Garfield's career is still too new to make this sort of comparison, but the fact is that these two photos of the actor were taken 15 years apart.
And while his career has certainly seen some major changes since 2007, the only way his face has changed since then is that it now features a beard.
Reese Witherspoon
Comparing these photos of Reese Witherspoon, one might notice a few more little lines on her face than she used to have. Aside from that, the actress's face itself became a little thinner by 2022.
However, it's worth noting that the older photo is from all the way back in 1996. Over the course of 26 years, the changes seen here are so minute that they wouldn't be noticeable without this side-by-side comparison.
John Legend
Other than features that people are known to change frequently, like hairstyles or facial hair growth, the most noticeable way Grammy-winning singer John Legend differs from his younger self is that his face is a little rounder and puffier than it used to be.
But considering that these photos were taken 18 years apart, that's not exactly a monumental change.
Tom Brady
Football fans can have their own debate as to how Tom Brady's ability as a quarterback has changed over the years, but it's far less debatable that the man has aged incredibly in the 21 years between these photos.
His face appears to be a little slimmer, and we can see some gray in his stubble nowadays, but that's about it. He's retained quite the youthful-looking face.
Nas
It's clear that rap legend Nas landed on a look he likes a long time ago, as even his facial hair hasn't really changed since the year 2000.
If 22 years pass and the biggest change people notice about someone is their hairstyle, they can definitely be said to have aged well. And it doesn't seem like Nas has aged at all.
Jared Leto
Jared Leto has always been something of a chameleon, but it seems that part of the reason he can blend into roles so well is that his face is about as ageless as it gets.
If the musician and Oscar-winning actor hadn't grown his hair and beard out, it could be legitimately difficult to tell this 2022 photo apart from one taken 28 years prior.
