Top 5 age-defying actors

Actors get old just like the rest of us, except we can watch every minute of their aging process on massive movie screens.

Who can blame them for Botoxing their way to the fountain of … middle age?

But a few actors seem to keep Father Time at bay – Dick Clark style.

Check out WWTW’s list for the five actors who seemed to have stopped the hands of time … without looking like they visited Joan Rivers’ plastic surgeon to do so.

• Steve Martin. Going gray early has its perks. Martin looks more or less the same as he did in 1991’s “Father of the Bride.” Same face. Same silver hair. And he’s 63!

• Lily Tomlin: No, she isn’t young enough to play Edith Ann anymore. But the “All of Me” star doesn’t look 69, and her signature squinty look is essentially unchanged.
• Christopher Walken: Whether he’s hoofing his way through that great Fatboy Slim video or giving Vince Vaughn fits in “Wedding Crashes,” Walken looks nowhere near his 65 years of age.
• Julie Hagerty: The “Airplane” star’s career didn’t take off as it might have, but watching her in the new “Confessions of a Shopaholic” was a jarring experience. She looks mostly unchanged since she quietly burst onto the scene in that 1980 comedy classic.
• Fred Willard: The aging cutup looks more or less the same today as he did when he was breaking us up in films like “Roxanne” and “This is Spinal Tap.” Hard work must keep him young. I aged a week just reading his imdb.com resume.
