Fans Are Surprised By Brad Pitt’s Age After Pics Of Him At Wimbledon Go Viral
Legendary actor Brad Pitt is an icon whoâs wowed Hollywood for decades. Aside from his top-tier acting skills, many of his supporters also admire him for his good looks. And though the actor is already 59 years old, he looks far younger than his real ageâsomething that many Pitt fans canât help but notice each time heâs out in public.
Case in point, photos of Pitt enjoying his time at Wimbledon, during the menâs final between Carlos Alcaraz and Novak Djokovic this weekend, went viral. People were stunned by his youthful looks, and it made some of them wonder what his secrets to maintaining such an appearance are. Though good genetics definitely play a part here, thatâs not the full story.

There is nothing wrong with looking your age, but many people strive to look as youthful as possible
American actor Pitt is known as one of the most attractive male celebrities in the entire world. So itâs no surprise that every single time someone snaps a few new photos of the star, his avid fans rush to look at and comment on them.
Many of them dream of meeting him or being with him; others want to look like him. Still, others envy him for his success, connections, finances, and fame.
A large part of what makes Pittâand anyone elseâlook so young in relation to his real age comes down to good genes. Some folks simply seem to age slower than others. However, no matter your genetics, there are a ton of things that you can change in your life to feel energetic and happy more often. And no, not everything requires being rich so you can hire personal trainers and personal chefs (though they do make things easier).
Oh, and just to point it out, there is absolutely nothing wrong with âlooking your ageâ: so long as youâre happy and healthy, the wrinkles really donât matter.

How you dress and what hairstyle you pick can make you seem trendy or out of touch
According to the âEvening Standard,â Pitt may look younger in these fresh new Wimbledon pics because heâs done away with most of his facial hair and has a new hairstyle. Whatâs more, the actor is known to have given up drinking and smoking, and he uses skin products. If your skin is healthy and protected from the sun, youâre likely to look younger as well.
The âEvening Standardâ also claims that Pitt may have had some cosmetic dentistry done, too. There are no signs that the actor may have gotten cosmetic surgery done, but it is entirely possible that he may have asked for small, subtle tweaks at some point in his lifeâbut thatâs just conjecture.
At the core of looking good lies a simple fact: putting in the time and effort to take care of your physical and mental health. That means getting plenty of exercise throughout the week, eating healthy food (skip junk food, sugar, and processed goods), limiting your caffeine and alcohol intake, and ensuring that you stay hydrated throughout the day.
It also means getting plenty of sleep at night, building healthy social connections, finding the time to do the things that bring you joy (instead of working all the time), and doing activities that help you destress (like walking in nature, picking up mediation, or focusing on a hobby like painting or playing music).
However, if thatâs not enough for you, then you can go two steps further. Namely, by getting a fresh new haircut and buying some new clothes. If you opt for a trendy new hairstyle and fashionable clothes, the people around you are going to see you very differently than if youâre rocking a mullet and a tired old jacket.

Getting plenty of sleep and taking care of your skin helps you look younger
During an earlier interview, British writer Ariane Sherine, the author of âHow to Live to 100,â told us why so many people are obsessed with how celebrities manage to look so young. âPeople are aspirational by nature. If we see celebrities looking younger than their age, it gives us hope that we ourselves could look as young as them when old,â she told Bored Panda earlier.
âThe science says that between 7 and 7.5 hours of sleep a night is best for longevity. Sun damage is the biggest cause of skin aging so wearing SPF50 sunscreen during daylight hours is a great idea, and it will also protect against skin cancer. Working hard is a definite contributor to longevity as there is an established link in the Western world between retirement and death,â Sherine said.
âSo if you retire, find another activity to give your life purpose, such as volunteering for a charityâdonât just sit on your bum watching telly all day!â
âOther things that will help you live longer include drinking green tea and coffee, doing lots of exercise (both cardio and weightlifting), eating fish twice a week, cutting out smoking, alcohol, drugs and red meat, and having strong close relationships with friends and loved ones whom you see frequently.â
Pitt has won two Academy Awards, two British Academy Film Awards, two Golden Globe Awards, and a Primetime Emmy Award. The actor is known for his roles in a wide range of movies, including âInterview with the Vampire,â â Seven,â â12 Monkeys,â âOceanâs Eleven,â âTroy,â âWorld War Z,â âFight Club,â âBurn After Reading,â âInglourious Basterds,â âThe Big Short,â âThe Curious Case of Benjamin Button,â âOnce Upon a Time in Hollywood,â and most recently, âBullet Train.â

Here’s what some Pitt fans had to say about the latest viral photos of the star
I'm not thrilled about someone telling us all to get more sleep, drink more water, and exercise more so we can look like a dude who just had plastic surgery.
Was it ever confirmed he had plastic surgery? This could simply be a case of makeup and a good stylist. Dye your hair, moisturize your skin, stick on some makeup and BAM you look younger until you wash it off.
Load More Replies...You can't de-age the hands though, I've tried we've all tried, I am sure he has gone totally extra on the tries...but look at his hands, it always shows there.
*Scrolled back & zoomed in to look at his hands* Dammit, he’s older than me and his hands look younger than mine!! They look so soft!..Of course I used to be a server for years and had to scrub my hands 50 times a day with cheap soap, and I’m sure he sits on his golden buns getting served while wearing expensive hand cream. That’s ok. His job is to look pretty, (Ngl, he’s very good at it!!) not survive a zombie apocalypse. But I find true comfort in holding my husband’s lovely calloused hands. Those hands can do anything, fix anything, build a house, do plumbing, mechanics, etc 🎶They can skin a buck, and run a trout line, because a country boy can survive. (A zombie apocalypse)🥰😊
