The Beauty of Retrospect: Beverly Johnson Week, Part Five

True beauty never fades.  Remember when Neil Sedaka sang how, however young and beautiful you may be, someday your looks will be gone?  Don't buy it.  Because Beverly Johnson still looks beautiful into her sixties, as this picture from 2013 demonstrates.     


To respond to that inevitable counterpoint comprised of two words - "plastic surgery" - I would say that even if Beverly Johnson has had a face lift (she once joked that everyone should have enough money to afford one), here she still looks like a woman in her early sixties.  Because no one should ever want to look as young as they used to be; they should only want to look their best for their age. And someone as beautiful as Ms. Johnson has always been has no problem looking their best as they get older.

And besides, even if someone does have plastic surgery, who am I to judge? 

And with that, I close the book on this week devoted to Beverly Johnson.  My next week-long tribute to a model previously featured on this blog, Cynthia King, commences shortly.
