What's the secret to Madonna's youth?

What's the secret to Madonna's youth?

There are some celebrities who look good no matter what age they are, and then there are those celebs who just seem to get better looking with age.

Is it botox, plastic surgery, good genes or just simple, healthy living? Well, probably a combination is true of all stylish celebs who look half their age nowadays.

While some have openly admitted to surgery, other claim it is just the effect of taking care of themselves, eating right and exercising like a loon; in other words, sacrificing all fun and spontaneity to look good.

We like the call it the Benjamin Button syndrome, as more and more celebs appear to be ageing backwards and look so much better now in their forties and fifties than they ever did in their twenties.

In the hit film starring Brad Pitt, his character is born as an old man and slowly ages backwards until he hits childhood. While we're not suggesting that these celebs are about to hit their teens anytime soon, they are undeniably looking more youthful of late.

Take Madonna for instance, she's just hit 50 and could easily pass for someone in her early thirties, rather annoyingly. To celebrate this and her newly found single status she has taken part in raunchy photoshoots, been pictured kissing a buff male model in his twenties and has taken more of her clothes off, yet again.

Sharon Stone looks in better shape than ever before too, as she proved when stripping off for her role in Basic Instinct 2.

It's rare that a movie star actually looks more fit the second time around for a sequel than they did in the original, but Sharon undoubtedly manages it here.

With glowing skin and a flattering hair cut, the actress has never looked more radiant and she is another contender who could easily qualify for looking half her age.

Demi Moore reportedly splashed out more that £200,000 on getting herself back into shape for Charlie's Angels in 2003, and you can see it was money well spent if you've ever watched the film.

Gone were the bad eyebrows, short pixie crop and pale skin to be replaced by a bronzed goddess, with long flowing hair, white teeth and perfectly maintained eyebrows.

She undoubtedly stole the show, which is no mean feat when she shares screen time with Cameron Diaz, Lucy Lui and Drew Barrymore for the entire duration of the film. Oh, and yes she does prance around in a bikini a lot to show off her newly acquired bod too.

Even Jennifer Aniston, who is yet to hit 40 looks more radiant and confident than she ever did when she first started out in TV. She's figured out a hairstyle which suits her and to her credit sticks with it.

Where once her angular jaw may have been considered a flaw, she's embraced it and knows how to make it less of a prominent feature, with clever make-up, a golden tan and of course long, luscious locks.
