If you’ve been around long enough, then you’ve surely enjoyed heaps of movies, TV shows, and songs from the Golden Age of Hollywood up to the ’70s and ’80s. Do you ever wonder what happened to the actors who gave life to your favorite characters and singers who performed the now-nostalgic songs? If the answer is yes, then you’re in the right place.

We have curated a list of 50 stars who are still alive and kicking, and most of them have passed their 70-year milestone. Nonetheless, you’d be surprised to learn who among them are still active in their careers and how much they have got going on in their lives!

Fred Harris – 1930

The extraordinary men and women who make it to the lists of influential personalities still with us have something in common- persistence. These people practice their crafts and profession tirelessly. One such individual who pursued causes dear to his heart is Fred Harris; he stood up for indigenous Americans’ welfare in his case.

Going against his time’s tide is not easy, but some men have the grit needed to accomplish goals. Fred Harris helped sign legislation in 1970 that serves to return sacred land to the Taos Pueblo people. In 1976, the public servant returned to academia, completing the circle of dedication to the community for which we know him.

Eric Clapton – 1945

Eric Clapton, the only three-time inductee to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, is a British musician known for his exceptional guitar skills. He made a name for himself as a solo artist, releasing songs like Wonderful Tonight singer, and as part of The Yardbirds and Cream bands.

Clapton is 75 years old now, with a career spanning almost six decades. However, he is still active as a musician, having released his latest studio album Happy Xmas in 2018. It may be time for Clapton to retire, though, after revealing that he has a hearing disorder during a BBC interview in the same year.
