Ringo Starr leaves fans shocked over his real age after VERY youthful appearance at Nashville show

Beatles icon Ringo Starr blew fans away with his incredibly youthful appearance at a lively stage show in Nashville recently.

The legendary drummer, 84, took to the stage at The Grand Ole Opry, with a performance of The Fab Four’s Hit, With A Little Help From My Friends – but quickly began trending on X due to his age-defying looks and high octane stage moves.

The star – real name Richard Starkey – was seen jumping around onstage while showing off his impressive vocals, as well as a thick head of hair.

Fans were left gobsmacked over the star being 84-years-old, saying he was ‘aging in reverse’ and even claiming his vocals were even better than his former bandmate Paul McCartney.

One fan wrote: ‘Wow, 84! He must have located the fountain of youth!’

A second typed: ‘I know he’s hitting the hair dye, but it’s still really amazing how healthy he looks after drying out in the late 80s.’

Others wrote: ‘He looks the same as he always did. Can’t believe he is 84. His voice is pretty good too. Bravo Ringo. 

‘How do British rock stars live so long and do so well at old age??

‘Never thought I’d see the day where Ringo can claim to have a better singing voice than Paul…

‘Ringo looks amazing . Like He hasn’t aged a day. 

‘Ringo is a beast and in such great shape for his age , its something to behold.’

Dang he looks and sings great. Would never believe he was 84.’

He took to the stage for his Got Back tour at The O2 in Greenwich and invited Ringo, from the audience to join him on drums for hits Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band and Helter Skelter.
