About Kim
I didn’t know William Shatner and Barbara Walters were in their 80s… they both look fabulous. I really LOVE LOVE Betty White! I agree that Roger Moore looks horrible.

I’m surprised Gene Hackman and Barbara Walters are both in their 80s – that’s crazy!
I was most surprised to see Gene Hackman on this list! I had no idea he was 80. Some of these folks (Cloris Leachman., Betty White & William Shatner in particular) have aged really well I think. I’ll be honest though, I didn’t even recognize Roger Moore!
I know, i didn’t know about Gene Hackman either. Roger Moore definitely looks the most different. I love that Betty White made a comeback too, she’s hysterical.
