Death.

The black cloak of mortality will be on everyones doorstep at some point, somberly inviting them into whatever comes after this life. And as someone who has not come to terms with my eventual meeting with the Grim Reaper, I find it hard to grapple with the fact that death is inescapable.

Well, death is inescapable for an average human being such as myself.

Over the years, I have meticulously observed and analyzed famous individuals and, in turn, have come to the conclusion that some celebrities will simply never die. Some of them are even luckier they will never age, which means by default they will never die either.

And no, these celebrities immortality has nothing to do with any selling of souls to the devil. Their ability to live forever is completely organic.

Sir Ian McKellan

This man is upward of 80 years old and possesses more power than anyone on this list. What that power can do, no mortal being will ever know. McKellans Lord of the Rings character, Gandalf the Gray, did die, but he was immediately resurrected, so its not too far off to assume that McKellan himself, if he put up a fight, could skip the dying part and just exist forever. Hes also gay and an LGBTQ+ activist, AND hes been knighted, so he is literally unable to die.

Paul Rudd

Now listen to me, this man does not age, and I will NOT hear differently. He looks exactly the same in Ant-Man as he did in Clueless, 20 years earlier. Is Paul Rudd just a perfect human being in general? Yes. But does that mean he has automatic immunity from death? Also yes.

Jeff Goldblum

This fine specimen does, in fact, age. But he is so eccentric that he has to live for the benefit of humanity itself. I mean, he has released several albums with his band in which he plays jazz piano. Not to mention, he wears a fedora in nearly half of the pictures he takes. Im convinced that if Goldblum died by some tragic otherworldly force, he would either find a way to summon himself back to Earth or he would single handedly take over another planet. Either way, death is not in his future. Also, he recreated the iconic Jurassic Park picture and somehow looks better 27 years later.

Keanu Reeves

Honestly, I dont have much of an explanation for this one. Its just a good feeling hes Canadian (which just makes so much sense), and he will never see the end of his life.

Miranda Cosgrove

Yall better look up pictures of Miranda Cosgrove today and compare them to her in iCarly. You cant TELL ME Im wrong. This girl has not aged a day; she looks like she could still be 15 years old. And she still sings, which keeps her youthful soul alive. She was also the first woman on this list, so she gets extra points for that.

Raini Rodriguez

Rodriguez and I look the exact same, and I think its only fair that my celebrity doppelgnger is also immortal. Despite that fact, though, she really does look the same as she did when she played the absolutely iconic latina queen, Trish De la Rosa, on Austin and Ally.

Betty White

Im apprehensive to admit this, but Ms. White was not originally on this list. I reluctantly added her after relentless verbal attacks from my roommate. My roommate said, Have you seen the woman? She acts like shes 20. Shell never die. Apparently, White is 98 years old, so the fact that she still acts like a spry 20 year old is actually quite impressive.

Tony Hawk

Hear me out on this one. Tony Hawk ages, and frankly, I dont think he ages well. But think about it: he has always been a household name just looming ominously around the Homeowner Associations suburban head. While he never faded away from the public eye, right now hes in a period of resurgence. Because hell always be suspended in the minds of the American people, he will always be suspended in the mortal realm.

Halle Berry

She just doesnt age. She never has, and she never will. By sheer willpower, she will, in fact, live forever. That is all.

Shia Labeouf

Holes. Transformers. The paper bag thing. Hes like Jeff Goldblum but less powerful. I mean, if anything, hes the one doing the killing (for clarification, LaBeouf is not, in fact, an actual cannibal).
