PRINCE PHILIP, 97 YEARS OLD

It is fascinating to learn that Prince Philip was actually a member of two royal families before he went on to marry Queen Elizabeth II of England! He hailed from the Greek and Danish royal families and this must have played a factor in the successful match as well. Ever since their marriage in 1947, he has led a very public life alongside the Queen and he continues to attend important occasions at her side. He has always attended to his duties with enviable grace and humor, though apparently the latter occasionally gets him into a fair amount of trouble!

JERRY LEE LEWIS, 83 YEARS OLD

Jerry Lee Lewis was born into a poor and religious family who decided to sell their house in order to buy him a piano! Luckily, the gamble paid off as this proved to be the beginning of his musical career. Also known as “The Killer,” he made a name for himself after he wrote and sold a song with J.W. Brown, his cousin. The client was none other than Sam Philips, the president of Sun Records. Back then, it was not the norm for singers to perform songs written by someone else so he was considered a pioneer in this aspect as well as for the introduction of piano to rock ‘n’ roll. He first got married at the tender age of 16, and he got divorced six times since then. He has experienced many personal hardships and tragedies like losing his kids and fighting alcoholism. Fortunately, Lewis was able to conquer these difficulties and continues to perform today.
