Potent Quotables: Hynde Agitated by Aging


"I don't mind getting older; I mind getting uglier." --Chrissie Hynde

In a recent interview, the Pretenders singer admitted it's the more surface elements of um, maturing, that get to her. She added, "You know -- knees, disease, old age, death. I'm a wreck."

Shes lived in England for decades light house and
what she said is true
its a bitch to get old
the body does break down
and she is not a druggy but imagine spending most of your life on a tour bus or plane not knowing what city your in in constant jet lag and tryingto have a normal home life ( she has a family children etc in England)
thats alot of stress but she is still one of the best woemen rockers ( AND MORE SO JOAN JETT)
her sucsess isnst about her looks but her music
and its great she hasnt had a ton of plastic surgery and looking bizzare
getting older is good you gain life wisdom and all that comes with it
but its the phsycial part thats a bitch
so whats wrong with her statement you have to jump on her and bash her?
Im sure you al lthat are are and forever will be perfect timeless beauties
Pretty brave behind your key boards arent ya

O Chrissie, you (and your music) will always be beautiful to me.
I want "I'll Stand By You" played at my funeral.

In her Potent Quotable about her "Pre-Show Prep" she states, "To warm up, I smoke Bugler tobacco. It's a shame, really. But it's rock "n" roll." It's a shame, really, but it's long been known that regular tobacco smoking accelerates the aging process. She needs to eliminate the habit immediately as well as any other hard living from her lifestyle by working with a good nutritionist and trainer to include the correct anti-oxidants/nutritional supplements, nutritious foods, and exercise in her daily/weekly routine to halt and reverse the damage. Such changes have worked miracles for others with their health and physical appearance, and can still do the same for her.

Some people age better than others, whether genetically or medically, BUT Chrissie Hynde was NEVER a pretty female
