    But another person has also looked the same for 20+ years, and it seems like their lack of aging (aka good genes) are finally getting some credit.

    He's 44 now, but hey! I wouldn't have guessed it because he's been famous since he was, like, 14.

    Usher has apparently caught wind of his viral tweet and replied to it:
