Perhaps it was, in fact, Shaggy.
At least the “It Wasn’t Me” singer is happy to take credit for his longtime friend Sting’s youthful appearance. And indeed, the Police frontman attributes his age-defying look to two important factors.
“Good genes, that’s all,” he told E! News during an exclusive interview at the 79th annual Tony Awards in New York City June 7. “And hanging out with the right people.”
And Shaggy—who is starring alongside the 71-year-old in the limited revival of his 2014 Broadway show The Last Ship—was quick to embrace the compliment.
“See that?” he said in the joint interview. “You catch the youthfulness.”
As for how Sting feels about continuing to work with Shaggy on the latest collaboration in their decades-long friendship?
“It’s a friendship, and everything stems from that,” the “Roxanne” singer continued. “We love each other’s company and have fun. The work is a side effect.”
Of course, the feeling of admiration is mutual for the reggae star.
