Bless His Heart!

Filed under: Super Seniors

We love old people (like, really old), but…

They also make us really sad!

Really old people just constantly remind us that they're THATCLOSE to death, and Bob Barker looks it!

The TV legend was at the Academy of Magical Arts awards show in L.A. on Saturday night.

He's 84 years old.

They drop like flies at 84!

We can't help but have morbid thoughts like, "What if this is the last time Bob Barker is seen out in public?"

At least he's getting out of the house, and that's good.

Hope you're healthy, Bob. Stay that way for a while old chum!

      It's a shame this fat pig doesnt (obviously) read the comments on his own site. If he did, he would have jumped on here FRIDAY and responded, sucked it up, apologized or SOMETHING regarding John Mayer. I hope this is finally his downfall. He deserves whatever Karma slaps him in his fat fugly face. I'm gay and I'm, sure ALL GAYS now totally hate you. Die, please.

      I was at a luncheon on Thursday and Bob Barker was there as an honoree. He spoke and is very articulate, very smart man and a national treasure. He has done a lot of great things for animals rights and though he may look a little weathered, he was one of the sharpest 84 year olds I had ever met. I hope he's around for another 10+ years to continue to do his good work. So don't be sad when you see his pictures Perez, he's a great guy and very charming.

      Oh here we go again with the old people bullshit. Leave him alone I mean come on.. a lot of people don't even make it to 84. The fact that he's still out there and getting around and is in good health is a great thing.

      42

      it's called major sun damaged skin. Sorry, but blotchy skin is not pretty. And that's what it will look like on any 80+ year old person. Beware all you tanning bed babies out there. That, and we're all used to looking at him through a filter on the camera. Those things can even make Joan Rivers look do-able. lol (not.)

      Honestly, this is the first post that made me cringe. I know this website is crass and in your face, which is what I love about it. However, such comments about 'someone being close to death and looking it' is not something to joke about. It is not funny post, it is quite rude. Yes, this is a gossip blog website, but please use a bit more of common human decency in your posting.

      Perez, I really enjoy reading you, but in this case you should show more respect for the people you're talking about. If you hate people taking shit about gays just because they're gay, then show the same sign of respect and don't trash a person just because he or she is not 18 anymore.

    61. red says – reply to this


      61

      We used to have respect for older people in this country. Unfortunately that has been replaced by the self centered, youth oriented culture of today. I was taught to treat others as I would like to be treated, self respect and dignity. It appears that you and many of your generation were not. On another note for the past 40 years our public schools have been taken over by left wingers with their political agenda. They have not been teaching the truth about our constitution and our country. Most people in this country now believe that our constitution requires separation of church and state. That is untrue. The constitution prevents the establishment of a state religion such as the Church of England or the Islamic Republic of Iran. It does not mean we cannot post the Ten Commandments in our courtrooms and schools. I live in a left wing university town and the liberals in this town are the most hateful, intolerant, narrow minded, bigoted human beings that I have ever met. They cannot tolerate anyone disagreeing with their agenda. They are like spoiled 2 year olds and sound very much like you. I hope that someday you find what you are looking for in this world so that you can rid yourself of the intolerance and hatred that you feel for those who disagree. When we no longer can disagree or voice our opinions we will no longer be living in a free society. Day by day I watch our country becoming more like Nazi Germany because of hateful people like you.

      Good God, just because someone has lived their life in the public eye is no reason to degrade and ridicule them for things beyond their control. He has done great things with his life and his influence. Why make fun of someone for a biological inevitability? We ALL age. Even Teddy will be old one day.
      Will you stop loving him then and think he is an eyesore??
      I didn't think so.

      Im just cruising thru your site. not my usual stop. But where is the respect? Is our generation so cruel and cold that you have to make fun of a person that has done more in his lifetime than you will ever dream of, Mario. Sure, this is thebusiness where if you want the fame you have to tough our comments like yours, but does this mean that human life is up for a disgusting quick joke? I would wish you to die a slow death, but then I would be sinking to your filth. Somebody higher will judge you soon. I…other people, can only hope for forgiveness of our own sins.

      94

      BOB is great - he looks very spry for his age.

      skin does change a lot when you get older - it thins out and can get irritated easily - WHO CARES?

      Bob Barker had a wonderful career and he also did TONS for animal causes - he believed that alls pets should be spayed or neutered to prevent the heartbreaking situation for shelters who euthanized unwanted animals and Bob taught many people to DO BETTER!

      GO BOB - WE LOVE YA!

      I hate to break it to you but people today are living much longer. There are many persons living past 100. Essentially, just because you are in your 80's does not mean that you are going to check out any time soon. Why is it that you have these negative feelings towards older people? This is as if there was something wrong to get old. It a natural part of life. Get real!!!!!!!!!!!!

      98

      I have heard that gay men have a fear of aging because many of them are superficial and shallow. Perhaps Perez is starting to get nervous. He is, after all, in his 30's now and not looking exactly spry or youthful himself. Bob Barker is thinner and in better shape than Dough Boy. I would do him before I would Perez and Im pretty hard up.

      Perez you make me fucking sick. What is ur prob? Leave this guy alone, he's hotter than you, in better shape than you, nicer than you, wittier than you, more successful than you and guess what? People actually like him. People what you Perez, you fat sack of shit. My gay friends tell you me you are a disgrace to their community. You act all nice to people's faces, then tear them up on here. This is the first time I visited here, and will certainly not be back. i feel nauseous. Bob Barker is a legend, and a kind, kind man. Why I tear him up about one pic where he doesn't even look bad??? As you can see, he had skin cancer treatment recently on his forehead and his skin blemishes are probably a reaction to his treatment. Stop ragging on kids, the elderly, and nice people. When you die Perez, you won't have any real respect. Are you actually okay with not contributing anything important to this world? The shit that you do is far worse than anyone or anything u post about on this site, minus the DUIs. Go away, far away. HOW DO U SLEEP @ NIGHT?
