I don't know why you're saying this because it implies that there must be something bad about older celebrities, and that somehow younger is better?
Why do you imply that being over 50 must be bad?
Is there something in particular which younger celebrities do which makes them better?
From what I've seen in these celebrity reality shows it's generally the older contestants who provide better value for money.
It's often the case that it's the older celebs who are more fiery, more argumentative, more opinionated, more anti-authoritarian, and more rebellious and fiery then their younger counterparts.
Not always, but often they tend to be.
I don't know why, but it's often the older celebs who project more of their personality and quite often it's the younger celebs who are often more conservative, more reserved, too careful, too conformist, and even ironically too 'old' and square.
Sometimes it's much better to watch an older celebrity who is a cantankerous old git who's set in their ways, who has more life experience, and who doesn't care so much so more freely speaks their mind, rather than watching a younger celebrity with an eye on their future media career who is less experienced and is too careful to preserve a type of image they want to project to viewers who they are overly careful to try not to offend.
, I forgot,.... he was just an actor acting like a 'cool dude' on telly, in reality he's just an old man who likes to sit on his hammock all day not saying a lot".
