Celebrate 60! Cheryl Crowe looks young at the Billboard Awards, where she presents Olivia Rodrigo … weeks after an important birthday
Cheryl Crowe looked incredibly young when she was on the red carpet at the Los Angeles Billboard Awards on Wednesday night.
The beauty, who turned 60 on Feb. 11, wore a dazzling silver-and-copper-colored camisole combined with a black electric suit as her lightened locks fell to her shoulders.
It’s been 26 years since she debuted with her 1996 hit song If It Makes You Happy.

Crow introduced Olivia Rodrigo to the stage at the YouTube Theater in Los Angeles and thanked the icon for inspiring her.
Rodrigo was crowned Woman of the Year at the Women’s Billboard Music Festival 2022.
Olivia began her long speech: “It’s so cool. First of all, I want to thank Cheryl for being here today. Cheryl, I’m such a big fan of you and your songwriting and I’m so grateful you’re here, it really means the whole world.
So chic: The beauty wore a dazzling silver and copper low-necked camisole paired with a black electric suit as her lightened locks flowed down her shoulders.
“I want to congratulate all the other amazing nominees tonight: your art and work are so amazing and I am in awe of all of you and so, so inspired.
“Thanks to Billboard, it is a great honor for me to be named Woman of the Year. So many surreal moments have happened in this amazing past year and this is definitely one of them, so thank you.
She continued: “Not a day goes by that I don’t think about how happy I am to be able to call it my job. I’ve been writing songs since I was little and it’s absolutely my favorite thing to do and it’s such an emotional vent for me. What I love most about songwriting is its ability to capture perfectly how I feel better than anything I could say in a conversation. Songwriting has always been everything to me, so connecting people to my music is beyond a dream come true, and thank you very much. ‘
Her hair is there: her locks looked beautiful with soft curls and earthy makeup

Last year, Crowe said she won the “Best Legs Competition” when she was just 15 years old.
The hitmaker of “All I Wanna Do” got into trouble as she missed school to compete – which was judged by a bunch of dirty old men – but she was proud to have won and won a $ 100 prize.
She admitted: I missed school at 15 to take part in a competition for the best legs – and I won. The competition was conducted by a local radio station.

“I don’t remember who is judging – a bunch of dirty old men, I’m sure – but I proudly went through this scene to victory.
“I may have been arrested and arrested, but I kept my $ 100 winnings.”
The singer may have impressive legs, but she admitted that people are often surprised by how short she is.

She told the Guardian Weekend: “I can run a marathon with a pair of Yves Saint Laurent shoes – you learn to adapt when you’re just under 5 feet 4 inches.
“My height has never bothered me, but people think I’m taller because of the smoke and the mirrors on stage. “You’re so short, Cheryl,” people often say when they first meet me. “Yes,” I reply, “I am aware.”
Cheryl grew up wanting to become a musician thanks to her childhood experience with parents who played in bands, and she didn’t even think of pursuing any alternative career path.
She said: “Music was my life as a child. My earliest memory is singing as we drove through Missouri in our blue van.
“Having parents, group musicians, meant that the house was full of dancing. Music was my identity; I never thought of another future.
