Yes, yes, yes to Pierce. But no, no, no to Bono

Thursday February 04 2010

James Brolin (68)

The silver-haired fox's career continues to go from strength to strength, but age has taught him not to let work stand in the way of a good time. He says: "At my age, I've determined that I'm really going to enjoy the next couple of years. So if my wife says 'Lets dash down to Mexico', I'm probably going to think 'Hmm that sounds fun' instead of 'Sorry, I've got this picture to do'."

Pierce Brosnan (56)

Like a fine wine, the 007 from Navan just gets better with age. He was hot as Bond but loosening up and prancing around in musical Mamma Mia! somehow has made him even more endearing and the chiselled good looks haven't weathered.

Bill Murray (59)

The Caddy Shack star could have found himself relegated to the dustbin of 80s actors but instead he's been propelled back into the domain of desire thanks to his role in Lost In Translation. If Scarlett Johansson can't resist his cynical charms, then who are we to argue?

Ronnie Wood (62)

The booze, the Russian cocktail waitress, the still trying to get away with the same clothes worn in 1975 ... Wood may still be one of the best guitarists the world has seen but the wrinkly rock god has certainly seen better days.

David Hasselhoff (57)

He may actually call himself The Hoff but sadly the former Baywatch star can't claim to be a HOF. He was hot in the car as Michael Knight in Knight Rider but the dodgy singing and footage of him rolling on the ground drunk with a hamburger have made the Hoff more car crash than anything else.

Bono (49)

He may not have quite hit 50 but if the U2 frontman's antics are cringey now, it's a sure-fire bet that the on-stage gyrations and oversize sunglasses aren't going to get any more appealing as Bono gets on in years.
