I saw him on New Year’s eve 2008, and he looked alot better. He looks like the head vampire from “Lost Boys.” He used to be the guy that never seemed to age, but life has caught up with him and he needs to let it go.

Interesting that when you try so hard to avoid death & age, you end up looking pre-embalmed. Trying to skip aging makes you more horrific than the thing you’re avoiding.

Marilyn,

His face is a side-effect of the embalming process. They must just stretch it out each year like recovering a drum. Clearly the man has psychological issues. He’s like 80 and he wants to look like he did when he was 75, or was that 65, come to think of it…. 40.

12/31/2009: I do not have a problem with him doing this show despite his age and the effects of a stroke… that’s great. The thing that freaks me out is that his face has not one wrinkle, not one age spot, etc. I am 35 and my face shows signs of age. It’s just creepy to see someone of 80+ years who hasn’t actually aged.

Fast forward to 12/31/2009…. Dick Clark is back. I’m horrified. He sounds like he’s gurgling on the devil that is stuck in this throat. This isn’t fun. This isn’t the Special Olympics. Dick should be watching this from his LazyBoy at the retirement home. Time to switch the channel.

I’ve been watching Dick Clark since his first days
of American Bandstand. I appreciate his contributions
to the music industry, and the fact that he is an icon.
He is American Pie, and The Beach Boys all rolled up and served with a Corvette !
But if he is part of another New Years Eve extravaganza,
I will watch something else.
For ABC to subject viewers to such a horror show
is down right cruel to all parties.

I could not believe my eyes when I saw Dick Clark last night. I grew up with the guy…this wasn’t the same guy. Ughhhh!!! I remember when one of my grandparents had a stroke and was never the same person after that ordeal. I so wish Dick Clark of the 1970’s and 80’s would re-appear with all that positive zest for life. Wishful thinking. I couldn’t understand his speech. His teeth were the stuff vampires long for. Just because you can do something doesn’t mean that you SHOULD do it. Please, anybody close to Dick Clark…family members, producers, Ryan Seacrest…ANYBODY…convince Dick to retire and live out his life away from the camera. The folks in my home stood there in amazement at what has happened to this poor human being. Let this be his last rock’n eve…please.

Does anybody know if Dick made an appearance on the Dec 31, 2008, event? If so, did he still look like he was embalmed?
