Most celebrities come into fame when they’re pretty young, and the majority of them only stay famous for a couple of years before slipping into the abyss of irrelevancy once again. Sub-par talents or drug addiction are largely contributing factors to the transition from ’star’ to ’some lady’, but the dreaded process of aging is really what haunts many sexy female celebs. Aging can’t be stopped, only delayed, and sometimes those age-defying cosmetic procedures don’t work very well or at all. However, some ladies luck out — a good plastic surgeon, genes, or simply healthy habits give their looks a longevity that leave us wanting more for years, sometimes decades. Here are 25 older celebrities who are definitely still bangable.
Sharon Stone – 46

Sharon Stone is an American actress and model most famous for the movie that skyrocketed her career and made her a sex symbol of the 90s at the same time — Basic Instinct. Even younger generations are familiar with her famous ‘flashing’ scene, in which she crosses and uncrosses her legs during a police interview. It sounds innocent enough, but it’s a head on shot of Stone’s vagina; she’s wearing only a slinky dress and no underwear. Since then, Stone has appeared in countless blockbuster hits and been listed on multiple ’sexiest women on earth’ lists. Although she used to be a Scientologist and offhandedly suggested that the 2008 earthquake in China could be chalked up to ‘karma’, Stone is still smoking hot at 46 years of age. She’s still posing nude!
Nicole Kidman – 41

Leading up to her breakthrough role in Ally McBeal, Liu appeared in episodes of The X-Files and Hercules. But Liu didn’t use her sexiness strictly for smash hits like Lucky Number Slevin and Chicago — she lowered her usual acting rate to star in a movie meant to raise AIDS awareness in China and Thailand. Liu is one hot 41 year old who we would love to see play the accordion — a hobby Liu says she enjoys.

This good-hearted hottie was even arrested in 2006 while trying to prevent the razing of a forest in southern LA. Hannah was again arrested during another protest in 2009, clearly unafraid of penalization for doing what she believes is “morally right.” At 49 years of age, Hannah is still sexy — and feisty — as ever.

Williams won Miss New York in 1983 and Miss America in 1984. Because she was the first black Miss America, Williams received death threats and hate mail. To make matters worse, she felt forced to resign after nude photos of her were sold to Penthouse without her permission, prompting pressure and uneasiness from pageant sponsors. However, Williams was not so easily deterred from success. She later released multiple R&B albums which earned her Grammy nominations and spots on the top ten Billboard Hot 100.

Crawford has made multiple work-out videos, including one for mothers who are trying to get back in shape after having her first child. We can only imagine that all across America, these videos made the sons of many Crawford-loving mothers very happy.
