Some of the performers on the Grammys tonight definitely showed that they're not too old to rock and roll. Which got me wondering, just how old is Tina Turner? And Cher? And Tony Bennett, for that matter?
Here are the answers, courtesy of Wikipedia:
Tina Turner (born Anna Mae Bullock on November 26, 1939) - age 68
Cher (born Cherilyn Sarkisian on May 20, 1946) - age 61
Tony Bennett (born Anthony Dominick Benedetto on August 3, 1926) - age 92
