All of my favorite things just get better and better with age! Wine? Absolutely better after sitting around in the basement for a few years. Cheese? Nothing like biting into a perfectly aged cheddar on a fancy evening in a restaurant. Men? Well, you don’t need to look further than Christopher Meloni to see that they’re better off with a few years under their belt too.
Chris Meloni has been my number one crush since before some of you were even born.
Whether you first fell in love with him on Oz or as the dreamy Elliot Stabler on Law & Order: SVU , odds are if you’ve ever seen this man on your television, you get it: he’s just plain hot.

Chris celebrated his 60th birthday on April 2nd.
It’s hard to believe that this hunk isn’t an ageless being who just popped into perfection exactly as he is, but apparently, that’s the truth!
His daughter Sophia, who recently turned 20, shared the most adorable throwback shot in honor of her dad’s birthday on Instagram.
“Twin spirit is 60 today,” she captioned the shot.
“We share a passion for dress up, a boyish obsession with Elvis Costello and just about everything else. love you always,” Sophia wrote alongside a sweet shot of herself as a toddler playing with Chris, who’s wearing children’s sunglasses upside down over his nose.
How CUTE is that?!
Chris obviously celebrated his own birthday on his Instagram as well.
“Pulling out ALL the stops! Whoop whoop! brang the excitement big 60!!” Chris wrote alongside a photograph of himself underneath a Happy Birthday banner and holding a birthday boy pin.
I can only assume that my invitation to the party was lost in the mail!
He also shared a video from the event.
We hope that Chris’ 60th birthday was his best yet, and that life continues to only get better!
If he decides to celebrate next year with a shirtless thirst trap, then his 60s will certainly be a treat at least for us.
