Hard Partying Could Be Aging You…Fast

amy winoIt’s no secret that celebrities such as Courtney Love and Keith Richards have lived quite wild lives. It’s written all over their faces…literally.

Living a less than stellar lifestyle health-wise does make you look older. All those late nights and foreign toxins going into the body…sounds kinda like college, huh?

Well, this hard partying/quick aging trend is catching on for the young celebs of our generation — not just the rock and roll greats of years past.

The UK’s Mirror had a recent article up about Real Age vs. Body Age, and rated unhealthy celebs like Britney Spears and Amy Winehouse against uber-healthy Madonna.

The results:

Madonna: Real AGE: 48, Body AGE: 35

Britney: Real AGE: 25, Body AGE: 30

Amy Winehouse: Real AGE: 23, Body AGE: 31

Interested to see how your college years are taking a toll on you?

Luckily, The Mirror also provides a handy dandy little quiz that you can take to calculate your “Body Age.”

If the inspiration to live a healthier life doesn’t come after you find out your number, just imagine looking like this in only a matter of years. Yeah, that’ll do it.
