Robby Benson
If you were growing up in the ‘70s, then there’s a good chance that a Robby Benson’s poster hung on your wall. He acted in the movies One on One and Ice Castles, which sealed his fate as a teen star. He would also voice the prince in 1991’s Beauty and the Beast.
Robby would go on to do more voice acting roles thereafter and recently ended an 8-year acting hiatus after acting in the Hallmark movie, A Feeling of Home. His love of acting led Benson to become a film professor at UCLA, Indiana University and NYU.
Selina Scott

Kirsty Gallacher
Before she became a presenter on Sky Sports News, she was working behind the camera as a production assistant. However, it was clear to see that British presenter and model Kirsty Gallacher had great knowledge of the sports world and a vibrant personality that looked good on TV.
Kirsty was soon hosting special events and interviews, and also bagged her own show, Kirsty’s Home Videos. You must have also seen her shimmy on Strictly Come Dancing, besides many other reality and television shows. She really is everywhere!
Keith Thibodeaux
It has been 6 decades since child performer Keith Thibodeaux won the hearts of millions of Americans as Little Ricky in Lucille Ball’s show, I Love Lucy. He has now become one of the last surviving cast members from the show.
Keith actually began appearing on TV at the age of 4, as a drummer! He was then cast in the I Love Lucy, The Lucy-Desi Comedy Hour and The Andy Griffith Show. He eventually ditched acting and joined his professional ballet dancer wife as the director of Ballet Magnificat!
Shelley Hack
From 1976 to 1981, a bunch of starlets kicked up a storm on our TV screens by starring in the originalCharlie’s Angelstelevision show. One such pretty face was that of model turned actress Shelley Hack, who would replace actress Kate Jackson after she left the show in its third season.
Hack, who played the role of Tiffany Welles, only starred in one season and went on to act on The Love BoatandL.A. Law. She has not appeared in anything recently, but is co-president of the production company Smash Media, alongside her husband. So Hack never left the entertainment industry, after all!
Erika Eleniak
Bagging a role in one of the most watched TV shows around the world, Baywatch, was the biggest career booster for actress Erika Eleniak. The pretty blonde was stunning on that show in her red swimsuit and soon became a poster-girl for her hot images.
But before her Baywatch days, Erika was child performer having acted in E.T., and The Beverly Hillbillies. She would eventually leave showbiz to settle with her family in Calgary, Canada and has stayed out of the spotlight. Now that she’s on social media, we love to see her flawless selfies and her ageless looks.
Twiggy
Her real name is Dame Lesley Lawson, but for us, she will always remain ‘Twiggy’ the model, singer and actress who began her career when she was just a teenager. During the ‘Swinging ‘60s’, she was known for her signature look.
Her short hair, long eyelashes and her androgynousappearance made her famous years ago, and she is still very much a cultural icon. Not many know this, but Twiggy won two Golden Globes for her role in the 1971 movie, The Boy Friend.
Heather Matarazzo
Actress Heather Matarazzo played the role of Lilly Moscovitz in the movies The Princess Diaries and became everybody’s BFF. But this wasn’t her first movie, as she has been acting since she was a child. However, she had been MIA for a while.
Heather said that she had taken a short sabbatical to work for charities, and began writing, producing and directing indie movies. Recently, she has been spotted at a couple of public events, and sadly, tweeted that her acting career wasn’t really going anywhere.
Samantha Fox
Former English glamor model, singer, and actress Samantha Fox is perhaps best known for two things: posing topless and her timeless hit ‘Touch Me,’ which reached the number 1 spot in 17 countries back in the day! While Fox’s long blond hair has stayed the same, her weight often fluctuated.
Fox finally got around to hitting the gym with a vengeance and a qualified personal trainer, moved around more during her stage performances and adopted a more nutrient-rich diet. This led to a rapid weight loss that made the singer look and feel much younger than her actual age.
Greta Scacchi
Italian-Australian actress Greta Scacchi has been acting in the movie industry for 4 decades now. Some of her best known movies and TV shows have been Emma, White Mischief, Heat and Dust and Rasputin: Dark Servant of Destiny.
Greta speaks German, French, Italian and English, which made her a favorite of many European directors. She has also played varied roles in theatre and is an accomplished stage actress. These days, she prefers acting on stage rather than on the big or small screen.
Susan Tully
Susan Tully is a British former television actress who is best known for playing the role of rebellious teen Suzanne Ross in children’s drama series Grange Hilland Michelle Fowler in the soap opera, EastEnders, on which she acted in till 1995.
Eventually her character had to be recast on the show, as she left acting to begin concentrating on building a career in directing and producing, instead. So besides a few EastEnders episodes, she has directed Britannia, Line of Duty and Good Cop.
Elaine Lordan
Former British actress Elaine Lordan is best known for starring in the sitcom Gimme Gimme Gimme, and as Lynne Hobbs from the long-running soap, EastEnders. But after a string of tragedies in her personal life, Elaine quit acting in 2008.
Her mother committed suicide, her one-year-old-son passed away, she suffered a miscarriage and her father passed away, all between 2005 and 2008! She would write about all this in her 2008 memoir, but just wants to stay away from the media.
Jenny Jones
Canadian-American talk show host Jenny Jones, was quite the busy bee between 1991 to 2003 when she was the face of her own talk show, The Jenny Jones Show. But before she made it big with her TV career, she was a struggling musician and stand-up comic.
That’s right! Jenny started her career as a rock band drummer, and performed stand-up comedy, even winning the reality talent show, Star Search in 1986. She’s now quite the celeb chef, and has websites and YouTube channels showing off her cooking skills.
Sharon Gless
Sharon Gless was ruling television in the 80s, as one-half of the female crime fighting duo, playing the role of Sgt. Christine Cagney in the TV show Cagney & Lacey. The show helped break down stereotypes around female cops and set the stage for other police dramas on TV which came later.
Gless later starred in TV’s Switch and the 2018 show Casualty. She is now in her 70s, but she is not ready to quit her job and retire. Her talents also shone on stage and she starred in several theater productions and she is associated with Los Angeles Student Film Institute as an advisory board member.
Olivia Hussey
As a young 16-year-old ‘Juliet,’ debutant actress Olivia Hussey must have found the overnight fame and Hollywood’s gaze on her quite intimidating, but she fit right in. The pretty Argentinian-British actress was cast as the titular character in Franco Zeffirelli’s 1966 movie Romeo and Juliet, and it remains her most famous role to date.
Olivia would go on to have more acting and voice acting parts in video games, but could not recreate the magic of her first role. Even as she is semi-retired now, Hussey, who is 68 years old, can make a comeback to movies whenever she wants. After all, talents don’t just fade away with age!
Shelley Fabares
After bagging the sit sitcom The Donna Reed Show as a child artist, actress Shelley Fabares was on her way to silver screen stardom, starring alongside THE Elvis Presley in 3 movies such as Clambake. In the late 80s, she bagged a meaty role in the shows Coach and One Day at a Time.
Right around then, Shelley suffered major rib fractures at her under-construction home and this would only open up Pandora’s box for her as she suffered many health issues in the years that followed. These days, while acting projects are far and few, Shelley is a producer, who has produced the SAG Awards for 7 years!
Susan Boyle
When Susan Boyle started singing I Dreamed a Dream from Les Misérables on the third season of Britain’s Got Talent, everyone was shocked with her voice. Although she only placed second in the finals, her appearance on the how opened many opportunities for her musical career. Boyle said she was absolutely astounded by the audience’s reaction to her ‘looks’ on the show – which were pretty negative in nature.
She even told The Sunday Times that how she looked like didn’t really matter because BGT is a singing contest not a beauty contest.Nevertheless, Boyle made an effort to change her appearance and lose weight, since she’s now a musical star. The singer’s hair looks different today, and she now wears makeup, including eye shadow and mascara.
Denise Austin
Fitness guru Denise Austin may be in her 60s today, but she can definitely pass for a 40-year-old. She does not need to thank cosmetic surgery for that, only the healthy lifestyle she lives. Austin gained prominence during the late 80s and early 90s for her workout videos. She’s someone every women listened to in those times, since she is an expert on fitness.
Austin has a degree on physical education and exercise physiology from the California State University. Aside from her fitness videos, Austin also authored books on fitness and diet, such as Denise’s Daily Dozen, Fit and Fabulous After 40: A 5-Part Program for Turning Back the Clock, and Pilates for Everybody.
Julia Roberts
The movie Pretty Woman was the perfect breakout movie for Julia Roberts, because she personifies the title of the movie. Roberts truly personifies the ’50s as the new 40s’ slogan for women, because she is aging flawlessly. Some Hollywood actresses her age may have sought the help of cosmetic surgery, but not Roberts.
Her face looks the same as when she appeared in Pretty Woman, except her eyebrows are less thick, and there are visible smile lines from her constant donning of her million-dollar smile. Perhaps Roberts’ anti-aging secret is simply laughing and smiling all the time.
Rachel Ward
Before Rachel Ward became an actress, she worked as a model and appeared on the covers in some of the most popular magazines in the world, such as Vogue, Cosmopolitan, and Harper’s & Queen. She gained attention quickly when she transitioned into acting, getting nominated for the Golden Globe New Star of the Year for the movie Sharky’s Machine.
However, her breakout role is considered to be in the TV miniseries The Thorn Birds, where she played Meggie Cleary. She starred alongside Richard Chamberlain in this famous miniseries. The actress, once voted as one world’s 10 most beautiful women, prefers to always look natural, usually wearing nothing but lip-gloss and mascara.
Marlo Thomas
One would assume that a seasoned actress such as Marlo Thomas, who has spent a lifetime on TV, would be more concerned about her look as she ages, but the 82 year old, does not give a hoot! The award-winning actress is best known for her roles in the sitcoms That Girl and Free to Be…You and Me, and was more recently seen in Friends, Frasier and Ballers.
While people say that Marlo has gotten plastic surgery to alter her looks, Marlo just simply doesn’t care. She says that she is at that age that she doesn’t listen to anyone, anymore! What keeps her looking fit and youthful even today? Marlo says she gets facials, uses oil to moistuzise, and advices other women to not obsess over growing older, too.
Nicole Kidman
Joining the ranks of many Hollywood A-listers who are aging like fine wine, is actress Nicole Kidman, who, against all odds is already in her 50s. The Australian actress, known for her movies The Hours, Moulin Rouge and Rabbit Hole, may be a mum-of-four, but she’s still giving the younger actresses a run for their money!
The secret to her glow? Having fun while aging gracefully. Nicole attributes the use of sunscreen and hydration as the key to avoiding skin damage, and it seems to be working wonders for her. Her younger avatar loved perms, harsh hair color and big hair, but the actress now flaunts a more natural look.
Sade
The 80s were a wild time in British history and Sade (real name Helen Adu) was on the rise. She started out as a fashion designer, while moonlighting as a model but she gained wild recognition as a singer and performer when she founded her band Pride. Some of her hits include ‘Smooth Operator’ and ‘Your Love Is King.’
Unlike any of her contemporaries, Sade did not want to bask in her fame, and chose to keep a low profile. She appeared in public from time to time, usually when she dropped a new album, but would then disappear and lay low. One thing is for sure that every time we see her, we are certain that time cannot dull her beauty and poise.
Jennifer Aniston
Jennifer has come a long way since she starred in Friends. The actress was trying to establish a name in Hollywood when she was cast as Rachel Green in Friends. It was the role of a lifetime, and her popularity once grew once the show ended.
Today, she’s one of the most sought after stars, not to mentioned she’s amongst the richest actresses in Hollywood. She’s also one of those who is proving that the 50s are the new 30s for women. Aniston is aging gracefully, probably because she drinks a lot water every day, plus she follows a diet composed mainly of greens.
Lisa Bonet
Even as a teenager, Lisa Bonet appeared on The Cosby Show as the lovable Denise Huxtableand later, in A Different World, and we realized she hardly ever wore make up, but still looked gorgeous with flawless skin. That trait is something that has followed the actress even today, as she crosses over the 50-threshold and is a mom to 3.
With just a little mascara and eyeliner, Lisa is still able to turn heads on the red carpet, and she recently spilled the secret to her beauty regime. Apart from a few trusted skincare products, Bonet uses coconut oil for her body and hair, follows a clean diet and dances to keep fit. A beauty tip that she wants to share with young girls… “never over-tweeze your eyebrows!”
Demi Moore
It’s hard to believe that Demi Moore is just a few years away from turning 60. The actress screen debut was in the movie Choices, then shortly after she was cast in the soap opera General Hospital. Armed with a beautiful face and the so-called ‘X Factor,’ Moore became a member of Hollywood’s 80s Brat Pack, and appeared in the movies featuring other members of the group, such as Blame it on Rio, St. Elmo’s Fire, and About Last Night.
Moore’s career peaked during the 90s — it was the decade her movie Ghost, became the top grossing film of 1990, and she became movie history’s highest paid actress with the salary she got for Striptease ( ~ $12.5 million).
Alanis Morissette
Canadian singer Alanis Morissette took the music world by storm when she release her album Jagged Little Pill in 1995. The explicit lyrics of her song You Oughta Know captured the attention of the public, which gave focus to other songs in the album. Jagged Little Pill sold 33 million copies globally, making it the second top selling female album of all time.
The singer gained a few pounds since she first gaining prominence, but that’s just about it for major change in appearance for Morissette. She may be glowing due to the fact that she’s enjoying married life and motherhood. She married rapper Mario ‘Souleye’ Treadway in 2010 and they now have three children together, with the youngest one born in 2019.
Tom Cruise
“Does he ever age?” is a common question when we look at Tom Cruise. More than physical appearance, people are shocked by the actor’s capability to perform death-defying stunts in his movies. Cruise rarely uses a stuntman in his movies, and he even flies helicopters and planes by himself. The actor, now in his 50s, is one of the biggest stars on the planet. He achieved popularity after appearing in the movies Risky Business and Top Gun.
He’s one of the few Hollywood stars who have been a consistent box office draw throughout his career that now spans almost 4 decades. And there’s no stopping Cruise, he’s set to star in the sixth installment of the Mission Impossible franchise and he’s made a promise that action will be more explosive than before!
Debbie Harry
If you are wondering what made Debbie Harry a music sensation in the 70s and 80s, the answer is really quite obvious. Harry possessed the perfect combination of her big beautiful voice and smoldering beauty.
Harry, considered by many as the ‘queen of new wave and the darling of punk rock’, still looks beautiful and hip even in her 70s. She’s the rocker version of actress Michelle Pfeiffer (they look so much alike). Harry and her band Blondie popularized the songs Call Me, Heart of Glass, and The Tide Is High.
Salma Hayek
Remember when Salma Hayek played a vampire in the movie From Dusk Till Dawn? Well, the actress may well be a real-life vampire because she doesn’t seem to age at all! But no, cosmetic surgery is not her secret, although she can definitely afford several procedures (her husband is a billionaire)!
Her secret seems to be just good Latin genes. Hayek seems to not age at all since she first graced the television screen with the telenovela Teresa. In fact, she appears to grow more beautiful as she ages!
Stockard Channing
Looking absolutely different from her days playing Betty Rizzo in the iconic musical movie Grease, is actress Stockard Channing who is in her 70s now. Grease, starring John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John may have released 40 years ago, but Channing feels like that was just yesterday, and that she is the “world’s oldest teen!”
With her recent TV appearance as a guest on the British talk show, Lorraine, fans of the actress noticed a marked change in her looks. Over the years, Stockard started looking very different from what she used to. Plastic surgery experts reportedly said that she went overboard with her lip and cheek fillers, probably used Botox, and even had a mini facelift, but she could barely talk on that show!
Jill St. John
Today, Jill St. John is recognized as the wife of actor Robert Wagner. Yet, even before she met Wagner, St. John had a thriving acting career, to her credit. In fact, she started acting at age 6. The actress holds the record for being the first American Bond Girl, appearing as Tiffany Case, being cast opposite Sean Connery in the movie Diamonds are Forever.
St. John, later in her career, focused her attention to cooking. She appeared in the cooking segments of Good Morning America and even published her own cookbook, The Jill St. John Cookbook, in 1987.
Cote De Pablo
Cote De Pablo made quite an impression to fans of NCIS that they couldn’t take it when she left the show in 2013. Fans of the show anticipated her return, and in 2019, they got what they hoped for when the actress appeared in the season 16 finale episode. Looking at De Pablo’s face, it seemed like she did not leave the show at all, since her face didn’t seem to age.
What is with these gorgeous Latin women? They all seem to age slowly and flawlessly. De Pablo is from Chile, born and raised in Santiago until she was 10, when her family moved to Miami, Florida.
Elin Nordegren
We all were team-Elin when it was revealed in 2009 that her famous husband, professional Golfer Tiger Woods, was a serial cheater, and she walked out on the marriage and divorced him. The mom-of-three then moved on in life, putting aside her broken marriage and still looks so stunning!
Elin doesn’t really talk to the press, so we can’t say what her beauty secret is. But, considering that she used to be a model before she married Woods, we think she may have some skincare hacks that only models know. Elin is Swedish, and aging gracefully may just be in her genes.
Barbi Benton
Much like her name, singer, model and actress Barbi Benton looked very much like an innocent doll, even as she appeared in risqué poses in Hugh Hefner’s magazine PB. Once known for dating Hefner, Benton then went on to retire from the spotlight after becoming a mom in the late 1980s.
The Hee Haw star still looks as gorgeous as she did when she wore her bunny years all those years ago. While many of Barbi’s contemporaries in their 70s may have resorted to plastic surgery, she has not admitted to going under the knife. Either way, she doesn’t look her age all at!
Lauren Tewes
What would a cruise ship be without entertainment? That’s probably why Lauren Tewes, the actress who played the role of lovable and bubbly cruise director Julie McCoy on the TV show The Love Boat, became one of the show’s most central characters. Some other shows she has been on are Hunter, T.J. Hooker and Murder, She Wrote.
In the 90s, Tewes went back to live in Seattle and focussed on theatre. She also attended culinary school, became a cheese specialist and now works with a catering company. We’re sure that her clients easily recognize her as Julie, as she still sports her signature bright smile.
Nicollette Sheridan
For Nicollette Sheridan, acting may be the best career to enter, as both her mother and stepfather were actors. Her mother was small-time actress Dani Sheridan, while her stepfather for a time was the great Telly Savalas. Sheridan is prominent for appearing in the television series Paper Dolls, Knots Landing, and Desperate Housewives.
When prodded about her secret for aging flawlessly, Sheridan might reply that it’s by using a natural anti-aging moisturizer made by Biolumière Organics. The actress founded the company that manufactures the moisturizer, which is BPA, toxic, and cruelty free.
Nancy Allen
Aspiring to become a dancer in her younger days, Nancy Allen moved to Los Angeles and veered towards acting. Her biggest break came when he was offered the movie Carrie, and followed it up with Dressed to Kill, RoboCop and Poltergeist III. Nancy, now 70, is now an activist and no longer an actress.
Retirement seems to be doing wonders for Allen, as she quit show business in 2008 and concentrated on her work as the head of Los Angeles’s weSPARK Cancer Support Center. The organization was founded by her friend actress Wendie Jo Sperber before she died of breast cancer.Nancy is content in her post-Hollywood life and the happiness shows on her face.
Maureen McCormick
In a classic twist of fate and history repeating itself, yet another brilliant child actor’s career was ruined by drugs and addiction. Actress and singer Maureen McCormickwas around 25 years old when her show The Brady Bunchended and by then, was heavily into cocaine and quaaludes, while also suffering from depression and bulimia.
After several stints in rehab and even seeking experimental treatments, McCormick was able to get her life back on track. Even in her 60s, Maureen, who played the character of young Marcia Brady in the TV show The Brady Bunch, still retains that innocence from her famous role.
Jaclyn Smith
Fans fondly call stars of the series Charlie’s Angels as ‘angels’. It was what Charlie called them in the series after all. The term is appropriate for the stars, such as Jaclyn Smith, because they seem to possess supernatural powers that slow down aging! If the 74-year-old actress sat alongside women in their 40s and 50s, one would think that they are all in the same age groups.
That’s how good Smith still looks in her 70s, possibly because of a secret beauty regimen, a regular trip to the spa, or just the case of good genes being passed on to her by her parents.The glamorous actress is kept busy today with her fashion line Jaclyn Smith, distributed in Kmart and Sears.
Elisabeth Shue
Elisabeth Shue’s girl-next-door beauty has not changed at all, even when she’s a few years shy of 60 today. The actress was very popular in the 80s, appearing in some of the most famous movies of the decade, such as The Karate Kid, Back to the Future II and Back to the Future III, and Cocktail.In 1995,Shue proved she’s more than a pretty face, when she starred opposite Nicolas Cage in the movie Leaving Las Vegas.
She played a female escort named Sera in the movie, a role that earned her Best Actress nominations from the Academy, Golden Globe, and BAFTA. Nevertheless, she won awards from the Los Angeles Film Critics Association and the National Society of Film Critics.
Gina Gershon
There may be something in the cocktails used in the movie Cocktail that slows down aging, because four of the stars in the movie are on this list! Gina Gershon is another actress who looks the same as she did back when she was starting her Hollywood career in the 90s.
Aside from Cocktail, the other movies she’s famous for isShowgirls, Bound, Face/Off, The Insider, P.S. I Love You, andHouse of Versace. The 57-year-old still possesses a flawless complexion, perhaps even better than when she was in her 20s.
Barbara Eden
When young Barbara Eden played the role of a 2000-year-old genie in the TV show I Dream of Jeannie, shedidn’t show her age back then, but even as the actress is now 88, she still doesn’t look her age! She knew magic on screen, but she may be a magician in real life too, because she hasn’t aged much in a decade!
Of course, because of this same reason, people started accusing her of undergoing secret plastic surgery. Still, the actress is still looking as fabulous as ever, even donning her old genie costume on stage, showing everyone that she’s still got it. But, she did admit that aging makes her a little sad.
Victoria Principal
Victoria Principal’s career peak was in the 80s, when she starred as Pamela Barnes Ewing on the soap opera Dallas. The show ended more than 20 years ago, and yet Principal has remained gorgeous as ever. Her secret weapon is her flawless skin, attributed to her love for skincare since she was 8 years old.
The actress’ constant search for the best skincare ingredients led her to start Principal Secret, her own skincare brand. Aside from having glowing skin, the actress has also maintained her enviable figure. She’s almost 70 but her figure is that of a 20 or 30-year-old!
Sissy Spacek
Well in her 70s now, actress Sissy Spacek, who we know and love from movies such as Carrie, Coal Miner’s Daughter and The Old Man & the Gun, has done great many things for her roles, but she refuses to do one thing; give up acting jobs and consider retirement.
Although there were a few plastic surgery rumors in the air regarding Sissy’s looks, she never addresses them. Instead, the veteran actress says that this has been the best time of her life, even though aging can be a bummer. She loves the respect she gets now, so it’s worth the wrinkles or the occasional back pain!
Donna Mills
Donna Mills may have a sweet-looking face, but don’t let that fool you, because the actress is a very effective villain on screen. She has proof of that too, with three Soap Opera Digest Award trophies for Outstanding Villainess for her role as Abby Cunningham in Knots Landing.
Aside from the famous soap, other roles she’s notable for are in the soap operas Love is a Many Splendored Thing and General Hospital, and the cult movie Play Misty for Me. Mills has always looked younger than her age, when she did Knots Landing in her 40s, she looked like she was in her 20s. The secret, according to Mills, is good genes and good thoughts.
Tatum O’Neal
Tatum O’Neal has a “first” to her name, as she was the youngest actress to win an Oscar at age 10 for the movie Paper Moon, starring opposite her now-estranged father, actor Ryan O’Neal. We all expected the Little Darlings star to make huge waves in Hollywood, but sadly, her drug addiction issues almost forced her to hang her boots up.
After a troubled childhood and broken home led her to abuse substances and then her drugs-related arrests, Tatum decided to become sober and received treatment from a drug rehab facility. Now, living a cleaner, healthier life, Tatum looks as gorgeous as ever, even as she struggles with Rheumatoid Arthritis.
Keshia Knight
In 2017, actress Keshia Knight walked into court hand-in-hand with her disgraced former on-screen father from The Bill Cosby Show,Mr. Bill Cosby himself. Back then, she played the character of Rudy Huxtable as a child performer and this made us wonder where she was all these years, but in fact, she never left!
Knight was right under our noses and was acting in TV’s A Different World when she was young. She took a sabbatical from acting and got her Bachelor’s degree in Sociology and was back with Tyler Perry’s House of Pain and a guest role in Orange is the New Black.
