Kevin Bacon Posts Shirtless Thirst Trap For His 66th Birthday

Kevin Bacon celebrated his 66th birthday with a sultry photo of him on the beach, with his toned chest uncovered and a wet swimming trunk that latched onto his skin. He leaned back on a rock as he let his shirt loose and stared into the camera with a cocky kind of confidence.

The iconic actor had the same photo as part of a recent chat with Kenny Loggins for Interview Magazine. Fans were blown away by how good Bacon has remained over the years, with his abs toned and his short, spiky salt-and-pepper hair looking healthy. He accompanied the post with the phrase, “This is 66.”

Bacon’s wife, Kyra Sedgwick, also posted a tribute to him just before his photo went up, calling herself his number-one fan. She shared a slideshow describing Bacon as the love of her life while sliding in a joke about bacon being “a delicious part of a balanced breakfast.” A few of her followers did not take the remark so well and called her out for glamorizing the suffering of pigs.

A look into Bacon’s healthy lifestyle

Speaking of bacon, the father of two does not eat pork or most types of meat, and would rather have a zucchini, fresh vegetables and herbs from his farm. He also prefers homemade meals and avoids eating out to ensure the safety of his meals. In addition to careful eating, he gets his workout in through hiking, callisthenics or weight-lifting.

He also credits Kyra, who he has been married to for 35 years, for helping him stay consistent with skincare and curating his products for him. Per retirement, Bacon thinks he is still strong enough to keep doing films, noting that his best years have yet to come. He remains grateful for his successful career run but refuses to feel satisfied and unchallenged.
