Right. What a dismaying, one-dimensional way to live. I'm not jealous (I am a man). It's the issue of hearing about Christie Brinkley all over the media for an exaggerated, very superficial accomplishment (some of which originally was genetic/not her doing). #fakenews I'd rather hear meaningful news.

Well, this is the fashion and beauty section of the forum, and Christie Brinkley was a top fashion/beauty model during her heyday, so it makes sense that people are talking about how well she looks for her age.

Christy is an actual friend of mine. She's beautiful inside and out.

She's made her money on her looks so it is her JOB to always look good.

She has to literally watch every thing she eats all her life to pay her bills.

That isn't the way most of us want to live.

It would help if the OP would post a picture of someone they think doesn't look 63. Depending on the OP age, their idea of 63 might be different than mine. I'm 44 and when I was young (grade school) 60 looked much different than today. Even 40 is vastly different.

In these pics you provided, she looks better than most similar-type 50-somethings. She looks good.

It goes to show you that even with that much money, the best docs, diet, and all the effort in the world, you're still gonna look around your age. She says looking good at her age is "hellishly hard work". Christie Brinkley admits looking this good at 61 is hellishly hard work* | Daily Mail Online

I don't mind it being talked about here. I mind when it's mentioned as major story across my TV, in place of news I'd find more interesting. It's also bad because it is part of the cousin propaganda campaigns of all women are beautiful and all women can be beautiful. Do we need to promote more political correctness (e.g., Christie Brinkley looks young) and more consumerism and vanity in the elderly now?

Hard to believe, and rather sick that the media cares so much about a person's appearance.
99% of people don't care whether Brinkley looks young or old.
Many of the worst people in the world look young and 'beautiful', so its completely irrelevant.

Well, you know what they say. It is better to be a has been than a never been. She was gorgeous and still is an attractive lady. But, I guess some people are just jealous.
