LOS ANGELES (CBSLA.com) — Fans are forced to face reality after seeing "Beverly Hills, 90210" star Luke Perry on the cover of AARP's magazine.
The former heartthrob turned 50 on October 11, and the AARP is helping him celebrate by putting his face on the cover of its magazine. The bottom of the cover says: "Welcome to the 902-5-OH."
