Actress Raquel Welch turns 70 today. Wow, kind of makes me feel old.

The only problem is sun and cigarettes.
Otherwise, genetics is likely a big player.
Um, you know — just because SHE has birthdays doesn’t mean YOU have to. Same with your kids.
I vote — Not Guilty of Everything!!
She has always been so gorgeous. She has natural beauty, and if she has had any surgery, she still looks like herself, unlike so many who have altered their looks to the point of being unrecognizable, and freakishly so.
She has worked very hard throughout her career, and she is always interesting to listen to in an interview. She is glamorous, intelligent, and timeless.
I am getting a kick out of looking at old things with Raquel.
Here is Tom Jones..with sideburns bigger than Elvis...singing in a cheesy number with her.

I had to get that Tom Jones cheese fest out of my mind..so here is Shirley Bassry singing the same song

Like Melanie Griffith?
What have you got against the great Tom Jones?
Nothing..I just thought that whole thing was cheesy...
Amazing. We have an entire thread of guys going gaga over a 70 year old woman.

Poor Raquel needed an Autotuner.
Wow that brings back memories. I used to have the 1 million BC poster of her on my bedroom wall as a kid.
I wish women would just age gracefully instead of going under knife and ending up looking like the Joker. So many once beautiful women end up looking like freaks.
She was on O’Reilly’s show a few weeks ago, and she looked and sounded fantastic. A very smart lady, and she talked about the moral stance she always took in selecting roles which certainly didn’t limit her fame or career.
Melanie Griffith has not aged well. I remember her make - up commercials 20 years ago talking about fighting against ageing using the product. The drugs and chain-smoking have aged her 10 years over her age. Pretty soon she will look like a twin with her mother Tippi Hedron.
LOL!
Yep, my age is the reverse of your numbers (67) and I "Feel your pain!"
What we used to do all night, takes us all night to do!
Ah, but alas, I have great memories and greater hope that life ain't quite over yet; aided and abetted by that ubiquitous lil' blue pill on occasions when .....well when the spirit is willing but the flesh (or parts thereof) is weak!
