Aging under the spotlight is not easy. However, some stars seem to defy time and remain the same as three decades ago. Some of them even look better after they turned 50 and look younger than most of us. More than appearance, those celebrities are still full of energy and able to don't need a stuntman in an action movie or to excel at dance.

It is undeniable that Jennifer Lopez looks younger than most people of her age, but she also has endless energy.
9 Lenny Kravitz - 56 Years Old
Lenny Kravitz is one of those people who seem to defy time. The singer, who is 56 years old, remains the same for decades now and it is almost impossible to guess the year a picture of him was taken. When his daughter, Zoe Kravitz, posts a #tbt on Instagram with her father, it always brings comments about how he didn't change.
The same happens to Lisa Bonnet, his ex-wife. It seems that Zoe Kravitz could not have inherited better genes.
8 Sandra Bullock - 56 Years Old

Of course, she also has a famous esthetician, Mamie McDonald, who helps her skin.
5 Keanu Reeves - 55 Years Old
