Japanese Women Who Were Beautiful 50 Years Ago

Here’s an interesting clip from a Japanese TV show in which a panel of celebrities are shown pictures of people currently in their 70′s and 80′s and try to guess which one of them was the most beautiful in their youth. In this particular one, they take a look at four women:

While it’s cool to see how these people looked 50 years ago, it’s somewhat sad for people to gawk at how age has taken its told on their good looks, isn’t it?

It’s not degrading if the ladies approved it.

I’m not sure what day the clip in this post aired, but I’ve definitely seen one where they do it with old guys.

I love to see this kind of thing. HOnestly, I should move to Japan for just their tv shows.

Moving to Japan just for their TV shows? Why not just tune into Sat TV or a package that gets international channels. I used to get atleast 3 Japanese channels, I think it was Tokyo TV, NHK and Fuji TV?

REally? I never thought of it. I’ll check into it. Thanks

I don’t get what they’re doing at the end with the disks.

Ah, I actually saw this in the staffroom at work. Thought it was a bit cruel rating them but I’ve always found it fascinating looking at people when they were young and how they’ve changed.
