Age is nothing but a number.
That statement has never been truer than in today’s article. In our heads, most if not all of us have an idea of what a certain age looks like or should look like. The images that come to mind when I say ages like 22, 46, and 33 are all wildly different.
Yet sometimes you come across people like the ones in today’s list who are all of the same age but all so radically different.
I find it so interesting and when I started finding more and more examples of these, I just knew I had to compile them in a list and share them with you.
So without further ado, here are 21 Nigerian (Nollywood) celebrities that are the same age but look completely different.
