The Woman I’d Skip the Rest of My 20s to Look Like at 65

Written by Karina

A tribute to 65-year old Susan Sarandon, who makes 25-year olds like me jealous. This woman is a natural stunner, so it’s sort of irrelevant to go off about how gorgeous she looks. No matter how harsh the gravity, a couple of decades can’t just flush a whole strand of DNA down the toilet.

The Internet loves to spout off on “girl crush” bizness these days. But when was the last time you had an “Older Woman Crush”?

Have you looked at photos of Susan Sarandon lately? My friends, this lady is hot. Though it seems like she’s always been hot, so it’s mostly irrelevant to go off about how gorgeous she looks now. No matter how harsh the gravity, a couple of decades can’t just flush a whole strand of DNA down the toilet.

I’m not the only one who’s gone suddenly Susan. Major Japanese clothing brand Uniqlo chose Sarandon as one of thirty faces to help campaign their recent stateside launch. That was before the woman’s 65th birthday earlier this month. I also celebrated a birthday this month, the day after which, I crawled out of bed with my smudge-free lipstain gone to hell, stumbled to my computer, and saw this slideshow of Susan’s style through the years. Then it was all, “Adios, poor lifestyle choices!” This woman makes the twilight years look like a tropical vacation, and I fully plan on inheriting her beach chair forty years from now.

Sarandon, who famously dated actor Tim Robbins for 23 years before splitting in 2009, purportedly coined the term “cougar”. Whether or not that’s true, this broad knows a thing or two about May-December romances. Now, she’s dating a 31-year old ping-pong club owner. What can you say? Tits are timeless. At least her’s, anyway.

Of course, she’s also known for her active role in liberal politics, most recently visiting the Wall Street protests to lend a sign-holding hand. She looks cool in flannel, too.

Thank you, Susan. For turning 65 and making 25-year olds jealous.
