"Martin Kemp may be putting the 'sex' back into sexagenarian on 'I'm a Celebrity', but men needn't be so fixated on sculpting their bodies, especially later in life"
"RIP the "dad bod", as Martin Kemp proves the latest male star seemingly immune to the middle-aged spread."
"As I'm a Celebrity...Get Me out of Here! kicked off on Sunday, all eyes were on Kelly Brook, after the former Page 3 girl promised she had packed a number of bikinis for the show's famous jungle shower."
Martin Kemp's visible fitness and confidence present a sexually vibrant image for a sexagenarian and signal renewed attention to older bodies. The cultural move away from the 'dad bod' frames toned ageing as desirable. Kelly Brook's bikinis and the show's focus on the jungle shower emphasize spectacle and physical appearance. Media emphasis on celebrity looks can amplify pressure on men to maintain sculpted physiques even in later life. Prioritizing balanced health, functional fitness, realistic expectations, and self-acceptance offers a healthier alternative to relentless body-sculpting pursuits that can harm mental and physical wellbeing.
