I think the "old" comments come from Namie being over 30 and still doing great in the JAPANESE industry. Traditionally, once you hit 30, you were no longer considered "fresh" and pretty much took a dip in popularity. Namie has done the opposite. Of course today in Japan that old "tradition" seems to be declining, which I think is great, but you have to consider that the Japanese entertainment industry has been pretty ageist itself.
