The envy-inducing celebrity bikini photos that prove age is just a number - including Salma Hayek

Halle proved that age is just a number when she showcased her jaw-dropping figure in a gold bikini while enjoying a day out in crystal clear waters. She completed the look with a checkered bandana and aviator sunglasses, and oozed confidence as she smiled for the camera.

"This is 59," she captioned the sizzling photo. Halle's incredible figure is partly thanks to genetics, and partly from maintaining a healthy lifestyle.

"I was a gymnast growing up, and that certainly has helped as I have always been very athletic. I have worked with many trainers over the years and learned a lot from each of them," she told Shape.

The Oscar winner's diabetes diagnosis also helped her learn healthy habits from an early age. "Being diagnosed with diabetes at such a young age – it put my focus on my health, and it put me on a wellness routine that has allowed me to not only age gracefully, but also to be in better shape than most people," she continued. "It was a negative that I was able to turn into a positive."

The 57-year-old stunned the world when she showcased her abs while filming Hustlers, a movie that required significant core strength due to its intense pole-dancing sequences. She looked incredible in a baby pink string bikini, complete with Y2K-style accessories like a belly ring, brown-tinted sunglasses and layered necklaces.

"I'm a hustler baby…I just want you to know…#Ramona on fire. On set and in character for #hustlersmovie," she captioned the photo. Jennifer is famous for her age-defying body, and credits her love of exercise for maintaining her eight-pack.

"Very rarely will I skip my workout,” she told Us Weekly. "[But] sometimes, I work too late the night before, and I'm like, 'Ugh, I can't do this.’ But I tell myself, 'Just do it. It's only an hour.' It's just talking yourself off the ledge of being a lazy bum.'"

Demi soaked up the sun during a tropical getaway, and shared several snaps of her lounging on a paddleboard, clad in a black string bikini. Her wide smile and toned figure sent fans into a frenzy on social media, with many left in disbelief that she was in her 60s.

The actress has battled with her body image over the years, as she wrote in her 2019 memoir, Inside Out. "I didn't feel like I could stop exercising," she candidly wrote, adding that she formed an "obsession with working out that would consume me".

Demi continued: "I couldn't go on fighting my body and my weight; I had to make peace. I started by giving up hard exercise. I never went back into the gym in the house. Never. The room it occupied is now my office."

Reese sent her fans into a tailspin in 2016 when she celebrated the 15th anniversary of Legally Blonde with a shot of her clad in a sparkly pink bikini while floating on a pool chair, her enviable figure front and centre.  

The star is committed to living a healthy lifestyle, no matter how busy her schedule is. "I exercise every day and eat right every day, no matter what is going on," she told Marie Claire. "If I'm working way into the night, I eat with frequency, and I take care of my mind and spirit."

The powerhouse producer and The Office star wowed in a chic white swimsuit while on holiday in Maui, alongside her three young children. Mindy, who has lost roughly 18 kg since embarking on her weight loss journey, shared that changing her mindset around exercise drastically improved her overall health.

"When I was younger, I had a very specific idea of how working out needed to be. It was like 45 minutes on the treadmill, seven-minute mile, it needed to be punishing, I needed to hate it," she told People.

"I've really been mixing it up and knowing that if a workout doesn't necessarily make me soak my clothes with sweat, that it still was a good workout…It does not have to be punishing," Mindy added.

Tracee looked better than ever while celebrating her 47th birthday in 2019, and shared a series of sultry snaps taken by the pool. 

The Black-ish actress stunned in a patterned string bikini as she showcased her athletic figure and bright smile on the special day. "No filter, no retouch 47 year old thirst trap! Boom!" she captioned the photos.

The secret to Tracee's incredible figure is that she constantly switches up her workouts and steers clear of sugar, dairy and gluten when possible. She also doesn't stop herself from enjoying a treat every now and then, as she told PopSugar.

"I eat chocolate if I want chocolate," she said. "I'm a big salty person; I love olives, I love potato chips, I love French fries. I eat a lot of all the other things that I eat. I am not somebody who will sit down and eat a small bag of potato chips...I eat the whole bag!"

The Mexican actress has never met a bikini she didn't like, as proven by the red-hot two-piece she wore while celebrating her 57th birthday in 2023.

"I'm so happy to be alive and so profoundly grateful for all the blessings!!!!" Salma wrote in the caption. "My beloved family, my precious friends, my health, my work that keeps me going, my empowering team, my relationship with animals & nature, and the love of all my loyal fans. Happy 57th birthday to me!!!"

Surprisingly, the brunette beauty doesn't like intense workouts, and has embraced her bikini body in middle age. "Four times a year, I put music on and walk on my own treadmill. Don't ask me to run," she told Marie Claire.

"I don't look at somebody else and say, 'I want that body,' or 'I want a new body'," Salma continued. "I'm still sexy, and I embrace it."
