Most changed/unchanged 80s artists

What 80s acts look the most and least like they did in their heyday. I saw the Knack in 2002, and the three original members _ Doug Fieger, Berton Averre and Prescott Niles _ still look about like they did in 1980.
Ditto for Tom Petty, who still looks close to what he did in the 70s and 80s.

On the other hand, I saw Howard Jones on the "Hit Me Baby One More Time" show a couple of years ago and he is now completely bald after having the major spiked hair in the mid 80s.

Martha Davis of the Motels was on that show as well, and she had had a donut or 10 over the years.

I think Robert Smith has been wearing the same lipstick since sometime in the 80s, just caking it on over all the old layers. That's probably about the last time he washed that rat's nest he has on top of his head, too!

Nick Rhodes still looks about the same to me. The other members of Duran Duran have aged a lot, but he looks the least changed to me.

Not that Mick Jones was anything to look at in the 80's, but the years haven't been kind to him.

Holy Criznap!

Al Jourgensen is looking pretty bad these days.

Terri Nunn will never stop being hot. Seriously.

Morten Harket of A-Ha, seems like he has found a way of not ageing a bit...
