Rick Springfield continues to age like fine wine in his seventies.
The Australian-American rocker, 76, has gone viral for his ripped physique after Joe Rogan discussed a video of the star performing shirtless on his podcast with Mötley Crüe drummer Tommy Lee this week.
In the clip, Springfield looked every inch the sex symbol he has always been as he showed off his toned torso and bulging biceps while belting out his mega hit Jessie’s Girl in just a pair of leather trousers.
‘This is literally bananas. He’s 76 years old and he’s singing Jessie’s Girl like he just wrote it,’ Rogan said as he showed Lee the video.
‘First of all, he looks f***ng incredible. Like he’s working out every day. I don’t even understand it. He looks like a 30-year-old guy.’
‘F***ing inspirational,’ Lee said. ‘Good job, bro.’

‘A lot of people at 76 are waiting to die. This dude is on stage with no shirt on, f**king crushing life,’ Rogan added.
Back in 2023, Rick said he works out ‘every day’ and followed a pescatarian diet to maintain his ‘sex symbol’ status.
The self-confessed sex-obsessed singer tried going vegan but admitted it made him look like ‘hell.’
So he decided to add fish back into his diet, and he insisted he’s never looked better.
Asked what the secret to staying ‘sexy’ in his seventies is, the musician, who often performs topless, told People magazine: ‘I work out every day.’
‘I just got a trainer, and I’ve been working out with him. Basically, I watch what I eat, and I try and stay active.’
On ditching veganism, the Affair Of The Heart crooner added: ‘I tried being a vegan, and it made me feel great, but I looked like hell.
‘A friend of mine came up to me and said, ‘Are you OK?’ I got so thin. So I had to put fish back in [for protein].’

The former Zoot guitarist – who has been married to the mother of his two children, Barbara Porter, since 1984 – often has fans throw their underwear at him on stage.
But he once said he’d rather have that than the beer cans that were pelted at him in his native Australia.
He previously told E! News: ‘We used to have a huge collection of bras and underwear but I grew up in Australia playing the pubs, so I’ve had beer cans, full beer cans, thrown at me.
‘There were no bouncers or anything in the late 60s or 1970s. So you had a mic stand or a guitar to protect you!’
