Paul Hogan – Age 81
Paul Hogan became a legend when he was cast as Crocodile Dundee in the eponymous movie that came out in 1986. Of course, he later reprised the role several times and even married his co-star, Linda Kozlowski, whom he met on set. The two were married from 1990 to 2014.
Hogan is an Australian actor who delved into the arts in the early ’70s. He initially got noticed after appearing on the New Faces talent show, where he ridiculed the judges as opposed to them ridiculing the contestants frequently. This got a positive response from the audience and the judges alike. Hogan reprised his most famous role again in 2020, in The Very Excellent Mr. Dundee.
Johnny Mathis – Age 85
John Royce Mathis is an American jazz singer-songwriter who started singing in a church choir and a band while still in college. After a 1955 audition, he was able to secure a recording contract before releasing the chart-topping number-one hit Chances Are in 1957.
Best known for his rendition of Misty in 1959, Mathis also gained popularity for his renditions of other popular music and Christmas songs. Over the years, he has produced iconic pop and jazz songs like It’s Not for Me to Say, Wild is the Wind, and Wonderful! Wonderful! Mathis is a cast member of the 2021 Ralph Wolfe Cowan documentary The Last Old Master.
Richard Simmons – Age 72
When it comes to fitness instructors, Richard Simmons is probably an example to follow. He started making a name for himself with his Sweatin’ to the Oldies video cassette series and with his Beverly Hills gym, the Slimmons, in the ‘70s and ‘80s. Nowadays, however, he’s living almost incognito in the comfort of his $6-million home.
He’s 72 at the moment and decided to withdraw himself from the limelight in 2014. Despite his hiatus, in 2020, he started uploading some archival exercise videos of his on his YouTube channel during the lockdown, hoping to help people stay active while at home. He should be worth around $20 million right now.
