I just realized that this list is missing Welsh singer Donna Lewis, who had a huge hit with "I Love You Always Forever" in the Summer of 1996. The issue is, while she was obviously ancient for a pop star when it became a hit (and graduated from the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama in 1979) her real age has always been kept a secret. If she graduated at 22 (didn't take any gap years, fail any classes, etc.), then this implies she was born in 1957 (possibly before) If Lewis was born in 1957, she would have been forty when her duet with Richard Marx "At the Beginning" charted. She would have been 38 and 39 when she had her big hit.
Again, this is IF she went to college/university at 18. This may be an asterisk situation.

I don't believe At The Beginning was a Top 50 hit at CHR. Was she 40 when Without Love charted in early 1997?

I've added Glenn Frey, who was 46 when The Eagles had their last Top 50 hit, "Learn To Be Still" in 1995.

Looks like a pair of Scorpions were 43 when "Send Me An Angel" charted in late 1991/early 1992. Added those 2.

I don't know if anyone has mentioned him yet, but Eminem is 45 and his single River has so far reached #21 on CHR.

Roger (Troutman) was 42 when he charted with "Slow And Easy" in 1993. I don't believe he got label credit on "California Love" in 1995.

Weezer frontman Rivers Cuomo, currently featured on AJR's "Sober Up", should be added to the list. He's 47.

I’m now convinced Jlo should have no trouble reappearing on this list in her 50s, with a fair shot of it being more than once. It will just depends on trends/features/etc, but I think she’s fully capable and likely.

Accounts are all over the place, saying she was in her 30s when ILYAF was a hit. She got married in 1987 according to one article.

I've updated both the age (45) for Pharrell Williams, and his latest song ("Sangria Wine").

Tiësto's age should be updated. He debuted in the top 50, yesterday, with "Jackie Chan" at age 49.

In addition to updating Tiesto's age and song, I've also added Mick Fleetwood (50) and John McVie (51) for "Silver Springs."

^Updated!
Also, I'm going out on a limb and hoping that "Don't Go Breaking My Heart" will still be around on August 22nd, since I've updated Howie D's age to 45.
And I added 50-year-old Mick Jones and 48-year-old Ian McDonald of Foreigner to the list (Lou Gramm was already on there).

Weezer are back on the pop chart (for the first time since 2006) with their cover of "Africa". Frontman Rivers Cuomo is, now, 48. The other members get to join in on the fun. Drummer Patrick Wilson and guitarist Brian Bell are, both, 49. And bassist Scott Shriner is 53.
