I don't know if anyone caught the Harry Belafonte interview on the Colbert Report the other night, but he's the youngest looking 84 year old I've ever seen:

Looks like he knows how important sleep is! en.terra.com/celebrity-gossip/news/… – Dragonfly Oct 25 2011 at 21:00

According to wikipedia he's also a newlywed as of 2009, so maybe that's got something to do with it. – Happy Now Oct 25 2011 at 21:18

Hey, for the down voters....You do understand that those of African decent have "built in SPF" equal to "about" 8 SPF...right? – Marie Oct 25 2011 at 22:30

He's 84 years old???!! Double U Tee Eff.

OMG maybe he is dyslexic and he is really 48.

Good call on wondering about what he's been eating. I would love to know too.

Update: Perhaps this will shed some light. I found this from 1960!!!!!!

Apropos of nothing: Jack, are you currently eating coconut oil? I stumbled upon another relevant (rat) study: jn.nutrition.org/content/125/10/2449.full.pdf – Travis Culp Oct 25 2011 at 22:08

For some reason it makes me feel better that he's been working "at it" for 50+ years. It seems like everywhere I've turned lately the news is about people who either have it don't genetically in terms of aging well. 2 meals per day...limiting bread...rice as a safe starch...sounds familiar. – Happy Now Oct 25 2011 at 23:09

I know exactly what you are saying because I saw Harry on the tube a few days ago an I was stunned at how great he looks. Then I recalled that I idolized Shari - his daughter - who is gorgeous. Looks like she was a spokesperson for Slimfast and now packaged calorie controlled foods called Freshology.

Shari is looking great! http://thepaulleslie.blogspot.com/2010/11/listen-now-to-shari-belafonte-special.html

Whatever they're into, they've flipped the RIGHT epigenentic switches.

Holy smokes that family has good genes, hard to believe she's 57, I'd guess mid-30's from the pic in that link. – Happy Now Oct 26 2011 at 8:17

The ad that played before the video was for Olay Regenerist. That must be it. LOL.

We were were throwing guesses out there as to what his moisturizing routine must be while we watched the interview, so maybe you're on to something here. – Happy Now Oct 26 2011 at 20:08

Belafonte's derangement appears to be more political than metabolic.

Condi? Is it you? I didn't know you were into paleo? My, my, you do hold a grudge. – Happy Now Oct 28 2011 at 22:18
