Richard Simmons – 74

Richard Simmons dedicated his life to promoting a better life through exercise. Simmons became obese at a very young age, peaking at 268 pounds. Simmons did try losing weight and working out, but he noticed gyms prefer already slim customers, and he realized the need for a studio that would accommodate people with weight problems. He opened his studio named Anatomy Asylum, where he encouraged people to eat healthy instead of doing extreme diets and to workout in supportive environments. Simmons became famous and appeared on television quite often, but has withdrawn from the public since 2014 while his studio was closed in 2016.

Jane Fonda – 81

Jane Fonda is like a female wizard. Somehow, she found a magical way to beat time and still look beautiful at 81 years old! But good looks aren’t everything, and Fonda is also a hardworking and talented actress, producer, writer, fitness guru, political activist, and former model. She starred in movies like Klute, Barbarella, Youth, Monster-in-Law, Book Club, and Our Souls at Night. She’s also performed on Broadway. Fonda visited Hanoi in 1972, back when the Vietnam War was still going on, in what proved to be a vital political statement at the time.

Wayne Newton – 79

Back in 1963, Wayne Newton released his very first album called Danke Schoen. Since then, he’s been known by many names, including Mr. Las Vegas and the Midnight Idol. He has managed to maintain an active career to the day; after all, we just saw him participating in the Stealing Chaplin movie in 2020.

He has also gotten married twice, first to Elaine Okamura and later to Kathleen Crone, and remains married to the day, having one daughter from each marriage. Music-wise though, he’s not released any new content since 1992’s Moods & Moments. Before that, he was sometimes releasing even more than one album a year!
