Having a career in Hollywood has its upsides and downsides — with one of the biggest downsides being that you’re expected to always look your best — no matter where you are, what you’re going through, and no matter how old you are. These celebrities on our list are definitely lucky, because they are look graceful and as beautiful as ever, even as they age.

Some of the celebrities here are endowed with great genes, while others have sought the help of plastic surgery or cosmetic surgery. Some are just plain lucky that they don’t need to diet to achieve enviable bodies, while others are required to stick to strenuous workout sessions and strict diet regimens…

Melissa Sue Anderson

American-Canadian actress Melissa Sue was only 11 when she landed her biggest role in the TV show Little House on the Prairie. This role made the pretty actress such a huge star that she was getting hand-written marriage proposals in her fan mail, when others her age were just developing their first crushes!

Before her career-making show, Melissa was acting in commercials and guesting on shows like The Brady Bunch and Bewitched. But after leaving Little House… the actress could not recreate the magic of the popular show and stuck to guest appearances on TV shows and playing small parts in movies.

Barbi Benton

Much like her name, singer, model and actress Barbi Benton looked very much like an innocent doll, even as she appeared in risqué poses in Hugh Hefner’s magazine PB. Once known for dating Hefner, Benton then went on to retire from the spotlight after becoming a mom in the late 1980s.

The Hee Haw star still looks as gorgeous as she did when she wore her bunny years all those years ago. While many of Barbi’s contemporaries in their 70s may have resorted to plastic surgery, she has not admitted to going under the knife. Either way, she doesn’t look her age all at!

Susan Lucci

Susan Lucci, the eternal soap opera queen, has gracefully aged like fine wine. Despite being in her 70s now, Susan’s beauty remains timeless. She’s best known for her iconic role as Erica Kane on All My Children, which she portrayed for over four decades.

Lucci’s ageless charm has kept her in the spotlight, and she even wowed the world with her stunning appearance on Dancing with the Stars at the age of 68. With a career spanning generation, Susan Lucci’s flawless aging is a testament to her enduring allure.

Kristian Alfonso

Kristian Alfonso, the epitome of ageless beauty, continues to captivate audiences with her timeless grace. Best known for her iconic role as Hope Williams Brady on Days of Our Lives, Alfonso has aged flawlessly, maintaining her stunning looks well into her 60s.

Her career in the soap opera world spans over three decades, and fans still can’t get enough of her. The actress’s enduring appeal proves that true beauty knows no age, and she remains an inspiration for those looking to age gracefully in the spotlight.

Linda Kozlowski

“To each her own”, goes a famous English idiom. It literally means, each person is entitled to his or her own preference. Other celebrities prefer nature to takes its course when it comes to aging, while others seek the help of cosmetic surgery to make them look youthful. Apparently, the latter is the choice of actress Linda Kozlowski.

She is most famous for appearing in the movie Crocodile Dundee, and being Paul Hogan’s better half (he played Crocodile ‘Mick’ Dundee in the movie), whom she met on the set of the Crocodile Dundee movie. Aside from going under the knife, the actress also undergoes regular cryogenic therapy sessions to keep her looking young.
