Meet Chuando Tan, the Singaporean photographer who will make you wonder just what the hell you’re doing wrong in life. Because believe it or not, Tan is actually 57 years old. Yes. That’s right. Five seven. And he seems to be getting younger every day.
His friends call him CD, and this Asian model has been catching eyes all over the world since appearing in an article for a Chinese news website. The half-centenarian, who has over 1.4 M followers on Instagram, co-owns photography firm ChuanDo & Frey, but it may come as no surprise to learn that he was one of Singapore’s most popular male models back in the late 80s and early 90s. He even had a short career as a Mandarin pop singer before discovering his passion for photography.
So what’s his secret on how to look younger? Well, apart from superior genetics, he also works out a lot (obviously), and he’s previously commented on how he avoids baths late at night and early in the morning and how he regularly eats Hainan chicken. But something tells us that we would hit the gym eight days a week and eat chicken every day for a lifetime and still not look as incredible as this guy. But that’s OK. Because we’re not jealous. At all.

Meet the youngest-looking old man in the world, Singaporean photographer Chuando Tan, otherwise known as CD
He might have the body of somebody in their twenties, but believe it or not, CD is actually 57 years old!
Yes, that’s right. 57. Five-seven. And he seems to be getting younger every day
He was one of Singapore’s most popular models back in the late 80s and early 90s
He even had a short career as a Mandarin pop singer before discovering his passion for photography
So what’s his secret to looking youthful?
Luck plays little for the youngest-looking old man. But can you really call him old? In the interview with The Straits Times, then-51-year-old Chuando Tan opened up about his daily routine. It all starts with the food. “Six poached eggs,” said Tan. He added, “I try to have my protein intake,” when asked if he eats eggs daily.
He’s previously commented on how he avoids baths late at night and early in the morning
He also works out
A lot
You can already tell, by photos alone, that he works out more than your average Joe. Chuando Tan’s age doesn’t stop him from hitting the weights section. However, a large number of old people who look young often share a lifestyle similar to Tan’s.
He likes to eat lean meat like Hainan chicken
Mingling with celebrities also helps to keep him young. Probably
It’s no surprise that CD has over 1.4M followers on Instagram
Today, Chuando Tan continues to live the same lifestyle he did ten years ago: working out and looking as healthy as ever. He did expand his social presence outside of social media, too. Moreover, he founded a modeling management agency, AVN Management, and even wrote a book.
Did we mention this guy is 57?!
So, How to Look 25 at 50+?
Wanna look like Chaundo Tan? Take a look at more old people that look young and analyze what they all have in common. Most of them engage in the same healthy activities: exercising, eating healthily, doing what they love, and spending time with young people (including celebrities). Oh, and did we mention fantastic genetics? That too.
Overall, if you find a healthy lifestyle that suits your day-to-day life, you better stick with it. Judging from Chuando Tan’s social media posts, it’s not so hard (or he makes it look like it’s not). So, if you want to take over the title of being the youngest-looking old man in the world—take care of your body and keep it as healthy as possible!

Share on FacebookHe s not the only one. I have the body of a 20 year old as well. But the costs of the freezer are killing me.
Your comment is brilliant! I laughed so hard that.
Load More Replies...I understand that if you regularly work out throughout your life you'll probably be in pretty good shape when you get to 50, but what about the face? He doesn't look a day over 30!
lack of stress and much worries throughout his life
Load More Replies...I think he's privileged to have the time and (maybe) enough money to keep himself look the way he is.
that's exactly what it is, and a more comfortable lifestyle in general
Load More Replies...I'm getting a little bored of these posts about these really young looking people. we get it they exist and we don't look like them. Thanks for giving us a nice self-esteem boost bored panda. I am 28 and look 38 i feel great about myself now.*hides in corner*
It doesn't matter how old you look :-) You seem funny and nice!
Load More Replies...Okay yeah, he looks youthful, but whos to say that Asians dont age? Not to hate, but when I lived in Japan, there were plenty of elderly looking people (who really werent that old). He probably has good genes, and kudos to him for working out!!! But Im just saying, that stereotype isnt true AT ALL (its almost like the stereotype that black people have big butts, and i am living proof of that lie ☺) but besides that, KUDOS TO HIM 😉
That's not bad genetics. That's working 18 hours a day lol. You should try it. Does wonders for your skin. ;)
Load More Replies...Either he isn't actually 50, or he has very unusual genes or he has had some plastic surgery. Plastic surgery is incredibly common in Asia. I'm positive that eating chicken has little do with it. :)
Sorry, calling b******t here! I go to the gym daily, and I don't doubt that he could have that BODY at 50 - HOWEVER! He has not one grey hair in his head, no laugh lines, no crows feet, and his skin is obviously that of a 20-30 year old. You can keep your body looking young, but your face? Your face doesn't lie.
Just one problem with that assessment Denna; he was a model in the 80's-90's so you can find pictures of him when he actually was 20-30 years old. As for the hair, he could just be lucky or it's simply a dye job.
Load More Replies...I don't believe it! There's not a wrinkle on his face... Nevermind that sick body! If he could bottle his genes, he'd be the wealthiest man on Earth!
Is it possible that this guy is 50? Of course...with a lot of maintenance. One just doesn't workout 3-5 times/week and eat a salad for lunch to look like that. He's probably had hair treatments (like, transplants), facial modifications/tightening, full body skin treatments and testosterone replacement therapy. He just didn't wake up like that.
Wanna know the real reason he looks so young? Good genes! Also good genes, and throw in some good genes on that. Oh and did i mention good genes?
Proves? hahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahah.............gasp!.............hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha...................................HA!
He, like so many celebs. have made a deal with the devil. Some where out there is a painting of him that shows his real aged persona, all grey and wrinkled up *L*
Fantastic, and he is physically blessed - but that physique takes an awful lot of discipline, mainly the diet. If you move in the circles he moves then motivation is much easier to come by. His overall look, is his business, it's what he brings to the table - lose it and he loses everything.
I guessed 45, but 25. I don't know. Maybe it's because I come from a family of women that ages very well, but I can usually guess age within 5 or so years. I looked a good decade younger until I hit about 42 and now I look my age. I'm fine with it. I mean I'm not much of a drinker or a smoker (prefer edibles myself) and I wear sunblock if I'm going to be outside a lot, but mostly it's really good genes. My mom was about 45 when she started looking her age and she said my grandma was, too. When age makes itself known, it's like it happens overnight.
I'm asian, 50 also and have no wrinkles because I stayed out of the sun! However, I'm sure he had good genes to begin with, but I'm pretty sure he had eyes and nose surgery, as they eyes are not typically Asian eyelid shape, and perhaps face shaping surgery too.
whats with the "no hot baths at night or in the morning" does he really not do this? whats the science behind that, why its so bad for you aging wise? I love that baths :(
Ummm Bored Panda is perfect for this post lol. I am not a Hater but are u guy said serious? This dude is so shot up on hormones it's ridiculous. Let's see him in his natural Asian state then we can decide. Typical gay 50 year old trying to keep up with gay youth culture is more like the title that should be used. Let's see him off of his cycle lol!! Cheater
You don't sound hateful, you sound more like a racially and masculinity insecure guy.
Load More Replies...When you have Money, Time and a worry free life, I can show you a 90 year old Heiress on 5th avenue who looks 18, but she has never worked a day in her life or known trouble , HOWEVER, I commend him for eating healthy, working out, and of course maintaining a balanced lifestyle ..... I am 20 but have the body of a 50 year old
lol if he actually 50years old but looking like some dude in his 30s.. he would have been under the lights of medical research team doing some serious thinking on the ageing factors.. stop selling news thats b******t., not a single layer of wrinkle..its not some rocket science to fool people at times when people have access to so many things. he just looks fine and a guy probably in his late twenties .. not a big deal. people just make up stories at will these days
bollocks.... you can have body like him, I have and I am 46 yo, but I eat raw vegan, and exercise a lot. the thing, is face will always remain about your age, this chap on photos in his late 20s, no f*****g way he is 50 yo..... anyway, I have body of 20 yo, but unfortunately, my face says the rest of the story about my age, eyes, skin, hair, all things will age
Stay out of the sun and start taking care of your skin as early as your late 20's, along with diet, and you too could look like you were still in your early 30's
Load More Replies...I can understand having a great body, that part is pretty easy, but the face, WOW noww thats impossible
Surprised that not many people are wondering if he had plastic surgery. If he were a young-looking 50 year old woman, everyone would be screaming that she must have had surgery.
Yes he is very fit for 50 yet woud push for youthful 30-something if didn't dye hair. Also the body sculpting matures even a beautiful man, whatever their biological age. I have never once looked my age apart from when I was 16 yet at 46 look absoloutely nowhere near it as a woman ho smokes, drinks and barely works out. Most people assume to to be no more than 22-5 as have no sharp facial features or even fine wrinkles, many asian people are much slower to age. I am Siberian Lapp and white in skin tone too - not olive or brown. I also have high cheeck bones , large almond eyes and a strong physical body that is toned (athletic) yet also curvacious outline. Must try and upload pictures to show the world of my unique youthful beauty - see so many posts of 'I look younger than my age' by western women who do look their age and don't care for other people's opinions, yet I am one in a million chance of a 22 at 46.
can someone explain the "no hot baths in the morning or night?" I don't want to take that out of my life :(
There's something majorly wrong with me. I constantly have to remind myself that I'm underage.
It's the Asian genes.. I'm 39 and I still get asked for my ID when buying alcohol LOL!!
I've seen plenty Asians that look old but those are the ones who either smoke and\or work outside in the sun. It's not "Asian genes", it's just that most Asian's are not sun worshipers like so many White people, who with their thin skin are the last folks who can afford to spend extended periods outside.
Load More Replies...dammn!! he is so hot ^_^ and he is 50?? age is just a number ;) Daisuke Senpai <3
More to do with the fact that not everyone ages like Caucasians.
These people have different diet. They never take normal meal as we.. and they keep on doing surgery to look younger
“Normal meal”? You mean like cheeseburgers and deep fried cupcakes? Don’t hate just because you can’t be bothered to eat healthy
Load More Replies...I can believe he's 50 He doesn't move his face so he doesn't get wrinkles. Look at the pictures again...whenever he's "smiling" he is barely moving any muscles in his face. Hollywood actresses do it a lot now, open their eyes wide and their mouth but never scrunch into a real smile. I find it extremely creepy.
There must be something he's got as a 50 years old, false teeth, stone deaf, a zit in the wrong place, wears a wig or /%$*"!_# ok I give in !!
The modifier in the headline worried me. I said to myself "He did something to the body of a 20-year-old that actually the whole world was stunned by? What did he do to her? She must be dead or it wouldn't have said 'body'." A relief to know the modifier was just misplaced.
I know some people who are 20 and have the bodies of 50yos. Why aren't they featured here?
He looks fantastic. Gonna guess its diet, genes, exercise, a positive outlook & great skin care & it's paid off so KUDOS!
No way this guy is fifty!! It is true, that some people look younger than they really are, but come on. He even does not have a single gray hair or wrinkle, anything.
Wait what, is he Waldo? Did we just find Waldo? We found Waldo, yo!
If you watched "American Psycho" of Christian Bale you found the secret of his youthfulness.. 😂
Why are all the people that look really young for their age happen to be Asian?
Wow that's kind of mind blowing! I'm guess it's mostly diet, exercise, and good genetics!
Handsome, but too many selfies and too much bodybuilding, lost interest after 3 pics.
The guy was a model. They all have their facial secretes and cleansing secretes. If they tell us their secretes, they wouldn't be popular anymore. They would be average.
The power or caring about youre own body!also sometimes people sometimes are too tired in their 50s to even go to the gym
One lesson we can conclude from this, and that 's to never skip leg day.
Most is genetics orientals don't age like other races so he cant take credit for that,but working is good for the mind and reduces stress also good for the face and body skin..stress hormones cortisol wrecks havoc with your complexion as does alchoho; and cigarettes which I'm certain he doesn't do..most orientals are slim by nature but hes all good if you like hairless men and way to skinny legs...lol he could use a burger here and there...
Maybe gene is in the family ? I look way younger then my age too , and my mother had the same. At some point people even thought we were sisters , and I was 18 and my mother was 42 . Chuando Tan's body is btw amazing ^^
