There are a number of stars who have reached that rare and golden age - and you'll be surprised how good they look for it.
William Shatner once joked that the secret to his longevity was never telling anyone his real age. He said on Today: "I’ve always got a birthday coming up". Meanwhile, Willie Nelson couldn't tell you the secret even if he wanted to: "I really don't know, except that I really do believe in imagining what you want to do and let it happen. And that's my full philosophy and it's working."
Here are the celebrities you didn't know were in their 90s - then and now.
