Donald Trump won’t be happy
Donald Trump took aim at Bruce Springsteen as he asked the musician if he’s planning on suing his “plastic surgeon.”
The president, 79, took to Truth Social on Thursday, April 2, to mock Springsteen’s appearance after the singer criticized him during the opening show of his Land of Hope and Dreams tour in Minneapolis. Springsteen branded the president “corrupt” and claimed he “can’t handle the truth.”
Trump shared a lengthy response on his social media site, as he called Springsteen a “dried up prune.” In a follow-up post, the president added, “Is Bruce Springsteen going to sue his plastic surgeon?” It comes after Trump made a disturbing sex comment on stage that silenced the alarmed audience.

While Trump seems to think Springsteen has gone under the knife to achieve his youthful appearance, aesthetics expert Amish Patel isn’t quite so sure. He told The Irish Star, “Looking at recent photos of Bruce, it’s fair to say he looks much younger than his seventy-six years. However, this could be down to a number of factors, not just any aesthetics work he may have had.”

Listing other reasons for Springsteen’s good looks, Patel began, “Your choice of clothing and hair can have a huge impact on how old you are perceived, and with access to the world’s best hair and fashion stylists, Bruce is certainly reaping the benefits in looking younger and on trend.
“Bruce is also slim and physically fit, both of which can give a more youthful appearance. Being fit as an artist is crucial when embarking on a grueling tour, which requires incredible stamina.
“Bruce has a full head of hair, which again is generally associated with being younger, and while he has opted to embrace his gray, it’s possible he may have had more than just a modern cut.”

If Springsteen has had any work done, Patel said it is “subtle.” At most, he suggested, “He may have had a touch of Botox around the eyes and forehead, but any anti-wrinkle injections he received are very subtle, and he still has plenty of movement in his expression.”
The expert continued, “Bruce has always had a strong chiseled jawline. Generally speaking, we would expect to see a sagging jawline on a man of his age, but Bruce doesn’t appear to have heavy jowls.
“He takes his health and fitness seriously, regularly heading to the gym and eating healthily. A healthy diet rich in antioxidants and vitamins can have a positive impact on the body and skin. Choosing a diet that is rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains and lean proteins will have a positive impact on aging skin. Fresh fruits and vegetables may be especially helpful in preventing damage that can lead to early skin aging, and they are certainly a positive addition for anyone looking to improve their skin. Drinking plenty of water to help keep your skin hydrated also helps plump the skin for a more youthful look.”

Patel also pointed out how Springsteen doesn’t smoke or drink, two factors he said “can hugely accelerate the aging process in the skin.” He added, “Given the quality of his skin, I would guess that Bruce has regular facials and a curated skincare routine.
“With so many non-surgical treatments on the market, such as dermal fillers, PRP, radio frequency, microneedling and Polynucleotides, it’s becoming easier to maintain healthy, younger-looking skin without the considerable downtime associated with surgery.”
The expert concluded, “It may be that Bruce has had some surgical or aesthetic intervention, but if he has, it has been done well, with Bruce still looking like himself, just fresher and without the ‘mask’ type effect we so often see in more mature high-profile celebrities.”
It comes as Barron Trump’s chances of getting drafted into the Iran war skyrocket for one unexpected reason.
