IT ain't easy getting older - the grey hair, creaking bones, etc., etc. - but it's a pretty safe bet that most of us, especially all you male readers out there, wouldn't mind aging the way the always elegant Pierce Brosnan is.

He's 55 and counting and always looking great in our eyes, but the cruel folks at the Daily Mail in England headlined the photo with this piece as follows - "Tomorrow Never Diets: Pierce Brosnan Shows Off His Jelly Belly in Malibu."

Huh!?!?! We should all have jelly bellies that look like Pierce's. The folks over at the Mail, which is usually a great read, really need to get a life!

"The Irish actor usually gets to cover up his stomach in a tuxedo as he appears on the red carpets of film premieres and awards," said the catty little story with the photo. Yeah, as if he's the only star who's ever had help when it comes to looking good at public events.

We'd like to know the weight and belly dimensions of the Mailers who put this little tid-bit together. A free jar of grape jelly if we get a response!
