I dunno.  Keith's wrinkles don't look like the result of repeated happy
faced grins to me.  Your face picks up the traces of your habitual
expressions and I don't see a lot of joy there.  Definite character,
though, and certainly preferable to looking at a smooth-faced boy!
Don't Robert Redford and Paul Hogan look awful since their face lifts?
If Alan Rickman ever has one I will travel across the Atlantic to slap
him!  And remember Audrey Hepburn?  Lovely as she was when young, the
pictures of her during her UNICEF work days in her later years are where
the inner beauty became so evident.
 
MJ's face reflects HIS quantity of inner beauty, too.  That man has my
deepest pity.
 
Lina, funny you should mention protecting fair skin, PG is known as "The
Big Pink Man" around my house <grin> - Beth

I'm not about to comment on 'good-looking and sexy, creases and all"!,
but there is something appealing in the old rocker's wrinkles. They tell
many a tale. There's room for an emerging industry reading the lines on
Keith's face. I've got a seriously used and abused guitar that one guy
described as having the same vibe as 'Keith Richards face.' It was meant
and received as the ultimate compliment. Lived in and survived to sing
about it, and all that. Kind of like your old baseball glove. 
Regarding cosmetic slashing and slathering, I suppose Keith could have
taken the same path to new and improved beauty as Michael Jackson (God
forbid) but I know who I'd rather meet in a dark alley...Maybe the
scariest thing about Mannekin Jackson is the emptiness that smites you
when the face speaks. By contrast, Keith seems so completely human, a
bit frayed and burnt, but impishly alive and mirthful - and increasingly
so! 
What a strange thread! 
And how has Peter G. managed to stay in such top form at 'turning 50?'
Not only does he look much the same facially, but he seems able to rock
just as manically....an amazing cat for sure.

Don't anybody dare say anything bad about Keith. 
I think he is incredibly good-looking and sexy, creases and all. Maybe
it's also the twinkle in his eyes, and the genuine kindness and
down-to-earth quality of the man. Mainly, it's the way he's comfortable
in his own skin, wrinkled though it may be.
The man is a treasure.
BTW, Charlie also looks wonderful. But then, he's always been elegant.
I think many, if not most, women also become more beautiful as they age,
contrary to popular American opinion...especially if they (we) don't
resort to the knife or slather on makeup with a trowel. 
If you're basically fairly happy with who you are inside, that really
comes through on the outside. Hopefully, you become more content with
and understanding of yourself as you age ! - it's called growing and
evolving, if you do it right. 
And if you genuinely like and are interested in other people, it's
amazing how much better-looking you become to them, no matter how old
you are.
The Oils look just as good to me as they always have - it's not like I
met them when they were callow youths, after all - but have long been in
awe of Peter Garrett, because he just doesn't seem to change. Perhaps
it's because he protects that fair skin from the aging effects of the
sun, or it could be that not having a particular hairstyle doesn't date
him as it does others (mullet, anyone?).
Either that, or the bloke has a portrait in the attic somewhere that
looks like hell.
