Covers Serve as Grim Reminders That We Will All Grow Old and Unsexy Someday

There is a lot that we can learn from Rolling Stone. OK, maybe just one thing. And that is that we will all age and wrinkle and shrink (or in some cases, expand). Glance over the RS covers, from 1967 to the present, and you'll see that the girl you totally would have banged in 1972 now looks like, well, like she is 72. Obviously, everyone grows old, but some do it better than others. Here are some celebs who brought sexy back and then lost it:

Linda Ronstadt? Totally hot in the '70s.
James Taylor? Ditto.
Michael Douglas? Young and cute.
Mick Jagger and Keith Richards? Looking remarkably sprite and not too dead.
It's been awhile since I've seen Bruce Willis with hair.
Gary Busey looked better as Buddy Holly.
Sally Struthers was totally cute!
Jon Voigt looked a lot like Liam Neeson.
Michael Jackson still looked normal in 1984.
And, of course, Britney Spears was once pretty.

There are look-alikes, too. Is this Dash Snow? It also kind of looks like an "If They Mated" photo for Jack White and Kid Rock.
