Oprah...real world. Try it, the rest of us live here.
So, Oprah's having a bunch of celebrities in their 50s-70s on to show "how to age brilliantly." And so far it's "Oh, have you had hot flashes? No? Do you feel differently? No?" Where are their medical stats? What are their livers like, a great digestive system defines aging brilliantly for me. Where are their health rituals, life-fulfilling passions. Where is someone's 85 year-old Grandma, who may not look unwrinkled and age-spot free, but who is happy and glowing and has lots of grandkids who worships the walker she walks with (where's my Grandma, Oprah?) Ohhh, it's about looking young and still acting or marrying some guy who's young enough to be your son. I get it now! Whatever, it's another trumped up episode of Oprah. There have been a lot of those for some time now :/.
No, what's fucking ridiculous about this is that EVERY ONE OF THEM, except MAYBE for Diane Sawyer, HAS HAD EXTENSIVE PLASTIC SURGERY. They all look like creepy Barbie doll versions of their former selves! Honey, that ain't growing old brilliantly, it's growing fake expensively. So, the secret is to make a lot of money so you can get your face carved up and undergo lots of surgery until you look like you belong in Madame Tussaud's, and then become buddies with Oprah. That's how you age "brilliantly". Thus endeth the lesson...now we can spend the next 45 minutes finding plastic surgeons to seduce and not watching that stupid show. Yeesh.
