    Her secret is probably living her life and not being overly concerned about others’ opinions of her. We should all be so blessed.

    It annoys me so much when people take a screenshot of an image then share it. Just share the actual image…

      More and more apps and websites are blocking image downloads.

      Screenshots too, but less frequently.

      You could argue that’s a copyright danger, but if this meme falls under copyright then fuck the law.

    Not that it matters to her worth as a person ofc but to be honest she’s still pretty imo. Aging is not this horrendous thing to be avoided at all costs. ¯\(ツ)

      We only see the tiktoks of the kids that make it out of the Scientology building. Feeding Tom’s youth is what happens to the others.

    The secret is that Tom Cruise has remained a famous actor for the entire time. This gives him both the money and incentive to maintain a youthful and attractive appearance. Personal trainers, private chefs, anti-aging doctors, hair drugs, hair plugs, hair dye, regular skin care routine, regular preventative botox, tailored clothes, professional hair and makeup work before all public appearances.

    The secret is nutritious food, personal trainer, active lifestyle and the best surgery money can buy.

      one is a backed by a multi-billion dollar cult with its deepest roots in L.A., and the other is a woman in Hollywood who had the audacity to turn 40 at some point. she’s also a lesbian, which was still a career killer in the 80s-90s.

    Seeing this pic makes me unhappy, i wouldn’t like people repeatedly drawing comparisons between my (normal) aging rate and my plastic lizard man co-star’s aging.

    I probably wouldn’t even like people drawing attention to my youthfulness if i was tom cruise.


    Btw guys, she is FIVE YEARS OLDER than him, you know, so the visual age difference is not even as weird as the meme tries to make it.

    Maybe it even makes it impressive thst she looked the same age as him in 86, since incels on twitter are always telling me women “hit the wall” when they get to 30.

    Cruise was ~23 in top pic, from top gun, and mcgillis was ~28.

    Let’s not forget the power of lighting and photo re-touching, since it’s a candid, street photo of her, and a publicity photo of him. He looks like a (fit) man in his 50s in candid photos. The hair in the later photo is definitely not natural, even aside from the dye.

      For real. I’ve seen recent photos of Tom Cruise where he’s looking raggedly old. A runway PR press pic isn’t at all representative of how a person looks compared to a pic on the street in the middle of a regular day shot by a paparazzi using a telephoto lens when the subject was unaware that their picture was being taken.

      Ridiculous meaningless comparison.

      And on top of that, it’s totally ok for a person to just live their regular life and not spend tons of life energy trying to look a certain way.

    I’m going with tens of millions of dollars worth of treatments, along with making exercise and sleep top priorities (because you can and because preserving your A-list looks is actually important financially)
