The 2014 VMA Red Carpet Proves Your Favorite Celebrities Are Actually Vampires — PHOTOS

The MTV VMAs are known for being the most scandalous award show of the year, but that's not all they're good for — they also remind us that over the course of her career, Jennifer Lopez has failed to age, and so have many of her fellow musicians. Despite the fact that we've been listening to certain artists for close to a decade, many of them have somehow discovered to secret to eternal youth (and haven't bothered sharing that secret). And yeah, it could be possible that the fact that they have access to the best age-defying procedures modern medicine has to offer, but I think it could be because they are undercover supernatural creatures who will outlive us all.

While you're stifling the need to ask J.Lo what anti-aging night cream she uses, flip through this gallery that proves that a lot of music's earlier generations are totally living in a time machine. I'll be over here, seething with jealousy.

Jennifer Lopez in 2005

Nine years ago — and way before her days as an American Idol judge — J.Lo might have been younger than she is now, but she was just as fabulous as she is today. And now?

Is it possible she actually looks better at 45 than she did at 36? There has to be some sort of witchcraft going on here.

Kelly Rowland in 2003

Former Destiny’s Child member Kelly Rowland has always looked pretty young. I originally attributed this to her close proximity to Beyonce.

But now that she and Bey spend less time together, she still looks amazing. Pregnancy looks good on her!

Kim Kardashian in 2006

Kim Kardashian has learned a lot about life since 2006 — especially since, you know, she’s responsible for baby North’s.

And I think she’s also learned about red carpets, because in 2006, she was obviously an amateur. How incredible does she look? Holy boobs!

Adam Levine in 2004

Back in 2004, Maroon 5 was just starting to gain popularity, and Adam Levine wasn’t yet a household name… or everyone’s crush.

Since then, he’s somehow managed to get hotter with every passing year. Except now, he’s Behati Prinsloo’s husband. Bummer.
