(Newser) – Some men age like a fine wine. Others age like these guys. The Independent lists the most embarrassing old goats in the public eye:

  • Silvio Berlusconi, 72: “What with claims he's spent the summer consorting with call girls and teenagers at wild parties, has Berlusconi simply forgotten his age?”
  • Jack Nicholson, 72: This past-his-prime ladies’ man “reckons he's still got what it takes,” but we “dread to think what your secret is, Jack.”

  • Mel Gibson, 53: Unable to recover from a certain anti-Semitic outburst, this wash-up ditched his wife—and mother of their seven kids—"to father a baby with a Russian actress nearly half his age.”
  • Nicolas Sarkozy, 54: “Le jogging president evoked not so much concern but ridicule when he collapsed last weekend after 'un jog' too far.”
  • Bryan Ferry, 63: This expired Roxy Music star picked up his son’s ex. ‘Nuff said.

What about Demi Moore and all the 'older women' dating 'younger guys'. I'm surprised the more extreme feminists on Newser are keeping quiet on this thread. Come on ladies - where's the equality?
