One of the toughest things to guess about a celeb is age. In fact, the older they get, the younger they sometimes look!

For instance, would you have guessed that the gorgeous Padma Lakshmi will turn 40 this year, come September 1? The Top Chef, who is expecting her first baby, looks svelte even when she's surrounded by all that yummy food.

Here's a look at some other Hollywood stars, who will turn 40 this year, but look way younger!

She's one of the reasons why we loved the first two Mummy movies. That adorable English accent just makes her that much hotter.

She singlehandedly made yellow jumpsuits very sexy. As a matter of fact, it's about time we see her in one again. Tarantino, are you listening?

This actor, writer and director's good looks and acting skills are reasons why we've almost forgiven him for breaking up with his wife Uma Thurman.

Yep, he's turning 40 too. But he's off the market, girls.

Birthday: May 18

Television's most powerful woman -- after Oprah Winfrey, of course -- makes 40 rock. After all, how many 40-year-olds have one of the world's sexiest men -- Robert Pattinson -- panting after her?

When asked about what 'type' of girls he would like to date, the 22-year-old Twilight heartthrob took Fey's name. 'I don't really have a 'type' but I like smart people. I really like Tina Fey -- she is, like, the sexiest woman,' the New York Daily News quoted Pattinson as saying.
