Grab a Tissue Before You See Richard Simmons at 72
Cause he’s so smokin’ hot you’re gonna need clean-up!
No, that’s not Richard at 72. That’s him 8 years ago. He’s even sexier now. But in order to see the photo, you have to undergo a certain ordeal — scrolling through the slides of this clickbait presentation, called “You’ll Be Shocked At How Old and Horrifying These Once Beautiful Celebrities Look Today.” Richard Simmons, on the other hand, is still sexy because he exercised so much. Exercise is magic and keeps you young and sexy, so what are you doing sitting here reading this? How about going for a jog, you lazy bum!
Why would you click on a story with that title?
It’s true, we all get older and lose that fresh-faced shine of youth. Maybe it’s nice to see that we’re not the only ones getting wrinkled by time. Misery likes company?
That’s a possible explanation. But psychologist Betsy Croaker has another idea.
“Human beings are sadistic,” she claimed. “Do you ever wonder why people slow down to look at traffic accidents — they’re hoping to see a bloody mess.”
And a bloody mess is what you will find when you scroll through these photos of beloved stars.
