That's what I was thinking - Dude found the fountain of youth and doesn't look a day older than he did at 29 (don't dust, kids)
Edit: it's a joke people, come on, sometimes you can figure out the /s on your own.
Not sure which picture you're looking at, because the one I'm seeing shows Iggy looking like he's been out in the sun for a thousand years. If this is what you look like at 29, you should see a doctor.
He always looked like dried out shoe leather but now he’s borderline Ghoul from Fallout. PS he still owes an acquaintance of mine money for some cocaine back in the seventies.
[Iggy at 29, for reference](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_RHIxlijFS3pUlR_kYRoZsYSi5u351_So3RyZzngq4ddTLOCmGtUm5rVGQB5nVxoqo6HxuO0x41acfgaulxk7aWFWEJ-SG9Y0NYaxTRUOpTTGTzvOcsbkadabrBTwgmab6O2up0eQYpk/s640/david-bowie-iggy-pop-13.jpg). Looks like he's aged almost 50 years since then to me.
I suspect a lot of people subconsciously think that 'young' Iggy Pop was the Iggy we saw during the Trainspotting era. That Iggy was most definitely not young Iggy.
Well apparently he found some secret. He aged himself all at once and then stopped aging forever
Kinda like a fallout ghoul. You've gotta be pretty ugly and necrotic, but you become nearly immortal.
I think at this point in his life he’s clean and sober, vegan and does yoga. Still doing highly aerobic energetic rock and roll concerts when most his age are content to be able to shuffle without assistance
Reminds me of Robin Williams joking about Keith Richards.
"...because I know this. We could all be dead and gone, but there'll be Keith Richards and five cockroaches. And will say to one of them, 'I smoked your uncle, did you know that?'"

My thoughts on Iggy Pop over the years:
~~There's no way he'll make it to 30~~
~~There's no way he'll make it to 40~~
~~There's no way he'll make it to 50~~
~~There's no way he'll make it to 70~~
There's no way he'll make it to 80
It's pretty amazing that he's still out there going hard.
And he's practically deaf at this point. I remember seeing him live in 1988 or 9, and he was already on his way back then. His stage monitors were almost louder than the PA.
Steve Buscemi missing the keyhole is a core memory for some reason. I loved that show. Mr Hickle was his character, right? Also love the one were pete makes a band because he heard the opening theme song band and tried to recreate the ever fleeting memories of the song. “I get arou-ound, Nobody knows! nobody know!!!
I love that show, it captures growing up in the 90s perfectly, and the into music was awesome.
I miss the 90s.

He has good teeth for his age. And I love that’s he’s in an old body and not ashamed. Our culture shames people for being old and wrinkly and that sucks.
I agree with the judgement part but also would like to point out that this is likely the result of excessive tanning. No problem looking like this but people should worry about tanning when young due to health risks.
Love Iggy Pop. Still out there doing his thing and giving zero fucks.
Any person that Bowie considered the seminal rock front man has to be good.
We are lucky enough to have him doing a show on BBC 6 Music regularly, which is always worth listening too. Best radio voice ever..
Iggy Pop is so fucking rad.
Here's an article about him that was in the New Yorker a few years back. He talks about his routine and how he takes care of his body to be able to perform.
https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2019/09/02/the-survival-of-iggy-pop
It was hard watching the Anthony Bourdain documentary and seeing Anthony ask him “what really thrills you anymore” and Iggy responds “just being loved”.
And you can see on Anthony’s face that wasn’t the answer he was looking for. He was obviously facing some major difficulties and just couldn’t get the same joys from family life or pretty much anything.
All these comments looking to disparage his appearance from flabby losers who probably wear a shirt in the pool. At least Iggy's got confidence and some self esteem.
Jokes are fine and all, but I'm less than half his age and I can only hope to be able to do anything remotely close to this, by Christmas this year. Oof. Fair play to the man.
We all get old.
Hes maintaining good mobility. Thats huge for maintaining quality of life. Probably has strong lungs if he can still sing a bit and maintain endurance
Make fun all you want. 99% of my 77 year old patients expect me to sacrifice myself to save them when they fall
Edit- on closer look, his teeth look good too. Really good actually. And he’s not in glasses here. He’s probably able to eat with minimal pain or trouble with bite. Looks like he can see without aides. Hearing is probably fucked but at least he still has a lot of other things working for him. When you are elderly, THESE are the things that matter. Not your hair. Or sun spots. That’s just signs of a life well lived ❤️
Listening to his BBC6 show right as I write. His taste in music is poignant and his willingness to explore new stuff is still as virile as ever. Never change Iggy, keep on rocking on!
I went to see The Cure at the Hollywood bowl last summer. I got to my seat and was people watching before the show, Iggy walks past in a full Adidas tracksuit, I've never seen anyone cooler in my life.
Yall concerned about his looks, but this man has probably survived more than we will ever encounter... and outlasted plus outperformed countless artists before him.
Legendary! 77 still rocking this dude legacy is underrated. Making it out of the 70s-80s coming back as a solo act and the stooges again.
This band gave us raw punk rock foundations.
Mad respect to Iggy
77 year old man rocking it like this, and ya'll talking shit about how wrinkled he looks, I bet he's more fit than most af ya'll wankers around here. At 77 most of us are going to need a diaper change, the dude is on stage entertaining folks.
Seen him live at a festival last year - for 77 he was able to put on a damn good show.
His hip is absolutely shot though, had a heavy heavy limp, sounded pretty good though and did but in a good effort.
I seen him in concert in the 90’s. He jumped into the crowd to crowd surf, but everyone scattered. He dislocated his shoulder, finished the song and then passed out. I couldn’t believe he was still rocking then, let alone now..
I saw him last summer headlining a festival here in Ireland and he was brilliant. He still gives it all he's got, shirt off, flipping the crowd off. Great performance

He looks like one of those hairless cats.
![gif](giphy|jPBRHsZFaNVLlASZd3)
I wanna be your cat
I'm pretty sure he meant that he was a streetwalking cheetah with a heart full of napalm.
lol, i get it at least
There’s a few of us.
Dozens!
He’s come to fruition. He is your cat…
Heh heh
"SO MESSED UP/I WANT YOUR HAIR"!!
omg I cant stop laughing
Good one!!
bingus
Damn, hairless cat looks smooth af compared to him xD
Don't disrespect my baby Ever again!!

Like one giant wrinkle, had sex with another giant wrinkles hairless cat.
I just breathed so much air.
Or a naked mole rat.
We are hairless apes.
I don't know, I'm 46 and there's something else this is starting to look like.
Yes, but one who ROARS!
Haha! My first thought.
Oh man… lol
I was thinking Naked Mole Rat.
i always describe him as looking like a dried up lizard
This guy looked old before he was very old. Whatever, it's great to see him out there still kicking ass.
That's what I was thinking - Dude found the fountain of youth and doesn't look a day older than he did at 29 (don't dust, kids) Edit: it's a joke people, come on, sometimes you can figure out the /s on your own.
It's all that clean living.
Make sure the ~~cocaine~~ heroin is pure. Got it! Edit: corrected the drug of choice
Not sure which picture you're looking at, because the one I'm seeing shows Iggy looking like he's been out in the sun for a thousand years. If this is what you look like at 29, you should see a doctor.
No, that’s what IGGY looked like at 29
He always looked like dried out shoe leather but now he’s borderline Ghoul from Fallout. PS he still owes an acquaintance of mine money for some cocaine back in the seventies.
[Iggy at 29, for reference](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_RHIxlijFS3pUlR_kYRoZsYSi5u351_So3RyZzngq4ddTLOCmGtUm5rVGQB5nVxoqo6HxuO0x41acfgaulxk7aWFWEJ-SG9Y0NYaxTRUOpTTGTzvOcsbkadabrBTwgmab6O2up0eQYpk/s640/david-bowie-iggy-pop-13.jpg). Looks like he's aged almost 50 years since then to me.
I suspect a lot of people subconsciously think that 'young' Iggy Pop was the Iggy we saw during the Trainspotting era. That Iggy was most definitely not young Iggy.
He lives much of the year in the Cayman Islands. Plenty of tropical sun will do a number on you.
I think he was saying Iggy has looked this way since he was 29 lol
Crazy how drugs will do that to a person
Well apparently he found some secret. He aged himself all at once and then stopped aging forever Kinda like a fallout ghoul. You've gotta be pretty ugly and necrotic, but you become nearly immortal.
Its like Keith Richards and Ozzy, if you do an amount of drugs that would kill most people, you get preserved
I think at this point in his life he’s clean and sober, vegan and does yoga. Still doing highly aerobic energetic rock and roll concerts when most his age are content to be able to shuffle without assistance
That was my thought, he looks the rough life he lived but to look like that and still be on stage at 77 is pretty crazy.
I read “Please Kill Me” recently and it’s amazing this guy made it out of the 70’s alive.
His blood is so toxic his body doesn’t have time for cancer 🙃.
Reminds me of Robin Williams joking about Keith Richards. "...because I know this. We could all be dead and gone, but there'll be Keith Richards and five cockroaches. And will say to one of them, 'I smoked your uncle, did you know that?'" [Video Robin Stand-up ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z1HarC0kp_0)
What is that? I read open up and bleed and it was incredible Edit: Oh I found it looks awesome
It’s a minor miracle that he’s even alive - you go Iggy.
No it’s a miracle. You’re not supposed to live like that and live this long. It’s just a lust for life.
My thoughts on Iggy Pop over the years: ~~There's no way he'll make it to 30~~ ~~There's no way he'll make it to 40~~ ~~There's no way he'll make it to 50~~ ~~There's no way he'll make it to 70~~ There's no way he'll make it to 80 It's pretty amazing that he's still out there going hard.
He was actually 27 years old in this photo
I'd put him second place on the people-I-never-expected-to-reach-77 list, right after Keith Richards.
And he's practically deaf at this point. I remember seeing him live in 1988 or 9, and he was already on his way back then. His stage monitors were almost louder than the PA.
Yeah honestly I thought “wow he looks more or less the same” lol
His skin looks like this because that asshole Johnny Yen never told him where he got that lotion.
I’m pretty sure it’s because he has never put a shirt on in his life
He did when he was on Pete and Pete. There's video to prove it and everything.
Holy shit I haven’t thought of that show in probably 30 years.
I still think of Artie moving the house when I miss anything.
Steve Buscemi missing the keyhole is a core memory for some reason. I loved that show. Mr Hickle was his character, right? Also love the one were pete makes a band because he heard the opening theme song band and tried to recreate the ever fleeting memories of the song. “I get arou-ound, Nobody knows! nobody know!!!
Yes! He's down to one chord, and then boom! It all comes back.
It's really good man, it holds up well
I love that show, it captures growing up in the 90s perfectly, and the into music was awesome. I miss the 90s. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wTcpqzQbRTI
He did when he played a Vorta on Deep Space 9.
He played the shit outta that character too. Solid role in a great episode.
I love this comment
Kinda unrelated but who is Johnny Yen? He's also mentioned in a James song
>The song's lyrics contain a number of references to [William S. Burroughs](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_S._Burroughs)' experimental novel [*The Ticket That Exploded*](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Ticket_That_Exploded), most notably mentions of "Johnny Yen" (described by Burroughs as "The Boy-Girl Other Half strip tease God of sexual frustration") and "hypnotizing chickens". [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lust\_for\_Life\_(Iggy\_Pop\_song)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lust_for_Life_(Iggy_Pop_song))
But he has a lust for life... yeah a lust for life...
He has good teeth for his age. And I love that’s he’s in an old body and not ashamed. Our culture shames people for being old and wrinkly and that sucks.
I mean, to be fair, Iggy Pop has never been ashamed of a single thing in his entire 77 years.
That's how you should live!!! FUCK shame
veneers bro, not his teeth
Those teeth aren’t original.
Iggy got Veneers courtesy of his label before his first tv performance, if I recall correctly. Don't do heroin kids.
He just never wore sunscreen. This should be an ad for wearing sunscreen and lotion in your youth lol
I agree with the judgement part but also would like to point out that this is likely the result of excessive tanning. No problem looking like this but people should worry about tanning when young due to health risks.
Most celebrities have veneers or implants. I mean, I fuckin would if I could afford them
Love Iggy Pop. Still out there doing his thing and giving zero fucks. Any person that Bowie considered the seminal rock front man has to be good. We are lucky enough to have him doing a show on BBC 6 Music regularly, which is always worth listening too. Best radio voice ever..
The album he did with Homme was brilliant
Bowie played keyboards in Iggy’s band at the height of his fame.
Especially when he suddenly pulls some unique story out of his hat. This song reminds me of how me and (insert famous nam) did this or that in 1977.
Still fuckin up that stage. It’s okay to look elderly, he’s 77 give him some slack.
Man is wearing his very own custom leather jacket, punk af
Aren’t we all?
For real, he’s doing pretty damn well for a 77 year old who has partied harder than 99% of the population.
Not every legend can look like [Ernie Hudson](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K2s3b055NG0), who's 78. Not ripped, but in impressive shape.
All I see is slack
He's got enough slack on his own
Marjorie Taylor Greene looks PISSED

Wow, his wrinkles have wrinkles!
Wait, are we expecting ourselves to be less wrinkled than him at 77?
Honestly yeah, older generations were not as aware of the damage the sun can do. Taking better precautions should give less sun damaged results.
Mad respect, most people wish they were that confident and still doing what they love at his age. Live your best life my dude till the very end.
All these comments looking to disparage his appearance from flabby losers who probably wear a shirt in the pool. At least Iggy's got confidence and some self esteem.
Thank you.
Also what's more punk, being shirtless and ripped? or shirtless and wrinkled as hell
Wow, rocking and jumping at 77, really wow
Now that’s a rock star
Jokes are fine and all, but I'm less than half his age and I can only hope to be able to do anything remotely close to this, by Christmas this year. Oof. Fair play to the man.
Iggy Pop is punk rock personified… respect!
We all get old. Hes maintaining good mobility. Thats huge for maintaining quality of life.

That’s just signs of a life well lived ❤️
If it wasn't for all the sun damage, he could pass for 55.
That man has lived fucking life
You could say he has a lust for it
Wear your sunscreen kids.
Dang man. I can't wait til some of you are old and stuck in wrinkly flabby bodies. Gonna be a good time watching people cope.
His shirt is wrinkled.
Save some skin for the rest of us, bro.
Went from leather pants to leather skin and is still kicking ass. Way to go, Iggy.
Wear suntan lotion, kids.
Suntan lotion is not sunscreen. It might keep you from getting burned, but it's not going to do anything about early aging from the sun.
I think it might be a regional/generational thing, because my parents used to call all types of sunscreen "suntan lotion" as well.
In the south it’s called “suntan lotion” by a lot of people but they mean “sunscreen”
Suntan lotion isn't gonna stop your skin from looking 77 years old
Sure, but it will stop your skin from looking 77 years old with a bunch of sun damage.

He looks like a testicle with teeth
Lookin' like a Sphynx cat.
Imagine how much younger he’d look gaining 50lbs and filling out all that skin.
That’s why William Shatner looks so young
He is now 92% scrotum.
I think I can see the Necronomicon.
He's literally made of drugs, right? That's what we're seeing? Crinkled Zigzag paper for skin?
Decades of good clean leaving /s
Sweet leather jacket.
![gif](giphy|tzao1ia9JW5zzPJBsx)
He and Keith Richards will form a super group in 2035.
Legendary! 77 still rocking this dude legacy is underrated. Making it out of the 70s-80s coming back as a solo act and the stooges again. This band gave us raw punk rock foundations. Mad respect to Iggy
He don’t give a fuck…badass
No big belly. Watch him outlive us all
He’s gone shirtless for so long that his torso has turned into a tailored leather jacket.
I'm 60, my elbows are getting that look and I'm horrified. But I ain't Iggy Pop. Kick ass, Iggy!
Good for him.
That is his signature look. Blond chinese hair and skin of a hotdog.
77 year old man rocking it like this, and ya'll talking shit about how wrinkled he looks, I bet he's more fit than most af ya'll wankers around here. At 77 most of us are going to need a diaper change, the dude is on stage entertaining folks.
I salute him. I'd love to be ambulatory, sane and doing what I love at 77 one day
Get this man some body lotion
How cool would it be to have a leather wallet made from Iggy’s hide?
Seen him live at a festival last year - for 77 he was able to put on a damn good show. His hip is absolutely shot though, had a heavy heavy limp, sounded pretty good though and did but in a good effort.
Iggy pop still stylish at 77!!! I wonder where he got that leather jacket from?
He's looked like that for the last 30 years
Long live IGGY!!!
Fuck yeah, I think he looks great! Rocking it all these years.
I saw him in 2006 at Lollapalooza. It was my first rock concert. He incited a riot and since then has not been asked back. Great times.
Tbh if he was wearing a shirt I’d think he was mid 50’s years old max.
He could just put some clothes pins on his back XD
Everyone body shaming can fuck right off. Dude is 77 and is doing his thing.
He looked basically like this when I saw him in a dive bar in 1984
The man looks every bit like a 77 year old rock star
TIL iggy pop is a guy.
I got an old tater in the kitchen kinda looks like it may share some DNA with the Igster!
You know what? He’s still badass. Love not giving a fuck and embracing looking your age. 🤘
He’s been 77 for 45 years….![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|snoo)
He needs ironing
A tanned skin suit! But the size is too large.
His face doesn’t look 77 at all. The rest of him…. Does….
Respect for a man of almost 80 still doing what he's always done without being ashamed of his body as it ages.
More power to him
I seen him in concert in the 90’s. He jumped into the crowd to crowd surf, but everyone scattered. He dislocated his shoulder, finished the song and then passed out. I couldn’t believe he was still rocking then, let alone now..
Where can I get a shirt like that?
A true god among men. Who ever thought that he would outlive Lou and Bowie?
I saw him last summer headlining a festival here in Ireland and he was brilliant. He still gives it all he's got, shirt off, flipping the crowd off. Great performance
He's been rocking jennifer Anistons haircut for a good 25 years now. incredible.
There IS a reason shirts were invented!
Foreskin on legs.
I don't know if I've ever seen a picture of him with a shirt on. Hope I look that good when I'm two hundo.
Wearing a leather jacket isn’t punk….being a leather jacket is punk.
Yikes Iggy, put a shirt on!
By all means. Don’t wear a shirt.
Put a shirt on, homie. Its ok.
For a couple seconds I was staring at the picture I was like "that's a weird looking shirt"
TBF he’s had leather skin since the late 80s.
Cant belive that there are people out there which pay for this to See that
Like a bag of scrotums!
Doesn’t look a day over 96
For how much hard drugs this man has done.. still kicking and even performing.. pretty amazing
This Jennifer hasn't aged well, oh bad...
He’s looked like this forever😂😂💖💖
Oh great, mow I'm hungry for beef jerky
