Ashford's Shirt -- Not So "Solid"

Posted Dec 18th 2007 9:00AM by TMZ Staff

With regard to "menz's" shirts, married singer/songwriters Ashford & Simpson prove less is definitely not more!
Ashford & Simpson
While performing at a charity event in Atlanta on Saturday, 65-year-old Nick Ashford -- with his unfortunately purple cellophaned wife, Valerie Simpson, sported a woman's belt and an inexcusable studded, sheer tank top. Their outfits gave fans the blues!

The prolific duo are responsible for writing classic songs like "Ain't No Mountain High Enough." Hmm. Perhaps, that tune is about where Ashford could get away with wearing his International Male catalog blouse?!

3. Granted, the clothes are a little young for these two, but they look amazing! And I love them! They have written many good songs.

7. this guy is 65? he looks amazing!
why such hatred and fear towards aging? aging is natural and we should embrace it with dignity and passion. isnt there anything more ridiculous than people desperate to look 20, all botoxed and plastic, tightened like drums. after all, good sex starts at forty (this is from experince, yesterday was my 46th)

8. TMZ can only hope to last as long as Ashford and Simpson. May not be in style, but after 30 years in the business, they can do whatever they want.

11. Hey we should all look that good - or even close - at their ages. Heck, most 40 year old men couldn't wear that shirt! Leave them alone they're doing great just as they are.

13. He looks amazing. And so does she. I dont' get the derrogatory commemts on their clothing choices. They look no different than other performers do on stage. Would I wear those clothes to do my grocery shopping? No But to perform on a stage...

14. Well, they're married and look Awesome for their ages, too bad the shirt's a bit harsh. Seen worse. Guess a live and let live is in order.



Oh, complain to TMZ about spammers like I just did. 1 or 2% of readers would be HUGE!!!!
