How about 75 year old Phil Collins...
Phil Collins has opened up about his recent health challenges, revealing that he has 24-hour live-in nurse care. The British rock star said that “everything that could go wrong with me, did go wrong with me” in recent years.
The former Genesis frontman, who turns 75 on January 30, was speaking to British presenter Zoe Ball for the final part of BBC podcast series “Eras” about his illustrious career. He told Ball that he’s had five operations on his knee. “I can walk, albeit with assistance,” he said.
Collins has previously spoken about his failing health. In a 2021 interview, he said he couldn’t play the drums any longer. His son Nic Collins replaced him on drums for a Genesis reunion tour, while he stuck to the vocals.
He’s had a series of fractures over the years and in 2015 underwent back surgery, which left him with nerve damage. In 2017, he fell, which resulted in him using a cane to assist with walking.
“I’ve had challenges with my knee, I had everything that could go wrong with me, did go wrong with me. I got Covid in hospital, my kidneys started to back up,” said the singer-songwriter, drummer and record producer.
“I’d probably been drinking too much, and so my kidneys were messed up,” he added. “I wasn’t one of those guys that sort of stayed up all night drinking. I’d drink during the day, but I guess I had too much of it.”

Aging sucks, but honestly, Phil Collins looked like an old man when he was 30.

Factoid Collins became a huge collector of Alamo artifacts. Then he donated it to the State of Texas. Im a fan of his art.
