Sylvester Stallone has aged fine like wine over the years. But there are still people who have taunted him about acting his age and growing up. In a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter, he was asked about whether or not he feels his age. To which, The Rocky actor replied that he feels “immature”.
He thinks that as one grows older, one tries to embrace the inner kid they have. The only thing that makes him feel his age is the injuries that he treated with fusions and operations.
“I’ve always been averse to the quote “Act your age.” Or “Age gracefully.” How do you age gracefully? There’s nothing graceful about you.
The older I get, the more I try to embrace my inner kid. The only way I really feel my age is because I’ve had so many injuries.
I’ve had five back operations, three neck fusions, both shoulders done, knees, ankles, fist — you name it. It’s been more than 25 times that I’ve been put out. So that I feel. But after I warm up, I feel really good. I don’t run out of gas.”
It’s undeniable, that Stallone never gave up on his American dream, and that’s why now he’s one of the most popular celebrities in the industry.
Where Did Sylvester Stallone Get The Rocky Idea From?
