You know what they say—age is just a number! And if anyone’s proving that to be true, it’s none other than R&B icon Karyn White.
The Superwoman singer just rang in her 60th birthday, and you wouldn’t know it by looking at her. With her timeless style and energy, Karyn is showing no signs of slowing down—on or off the stage.
To mark the big day, she took to Instagram to share a sincere birthday message with her fans. It was part love letter, part declaration—and all Karyn. In her own words, she’s “just getting started.”
Here’s what the legend had to say:
“It’s My Birthday!!!
“I wanna be alive until the day I die.” Hattie Whitefield”
“That line hit my soul. Because being alive isn’t just about breathing it’s about feeling, creating, loving, dreaming, and showing up fully as yourself every single day. So here’s to 60 years around the sun still alive in every sense of the word. Still bold. Still curious. Still evolving. Still saying yes to life, love, and purpose. I’m just getting started,” wrote Karyn.
