Raquel Welch has made her peace with Loana, the scantily clad cave woman she played in the 1966 camp classic "One Million Years B.C." The poster of Welch wearing pelts in strategic places made her a worldwide sex symbol. The image is so iconic, it was even a pivotal plot point in the 1994 film "The Shawshank Redemption."
"She's really pretty OK," says Welch of her reel-life character. "I recognize her as one part of my nature. But I just don't want it to be my complete legacy."
Welch is five months away from her 70th birthday. With a 50-year-old son and 48-year-old daughter, Welch is old enough to be a great-grandmother. But very few great grannies have looked like Welch.
Apologizing profusely for being about five minutes late for her interview, Welch breathlessly scurries into the living room of her Italian village-style house nestled in the West L.A. hills. Time has seemingly stood still for Welch, who looks more like she's in her 40s. She's whippet-slim with barely a line on her face (she swears by Oil of Olay). Wearing black pants, a crisp long-sleeve white blouse and a vest, Welch is a stunning near-septuagenarian.
Though not acting as much as during her peak of popularity, Welch certainly keeps busy. She was a regular on the 2002-03 PBS drama "American Family," and has guest starred on "Seinfeld," "Spin City" and "Welcome to the Captain." She's also appeared in the films "Tortilla Soup" and "Legally Blonde." And she's recently been featured in a fun Foster Grant sunglasses commercial.

and there are some photos that are VERY suggestive.
I did say it was the gene pool. This is proof. ;-)
here is my Raquel Welch story..........I’m adopted and about 4 weeks after the adoption ( I was 7 almost 8 years old) my mom took my sister and me to a TG & Y store in Texas back in the day
..There was a Hollywood type magazine near the checkout with a zillion Welch photos on the cover...The article tho ( I honestly read it) mentioned Welch had surgery to launch her beauty...She had 2 ribs removed to achieve the hourglass shape..........my mama would not believe I actually read that article and used it as an excuse to peek at pics
Come to Butthead, Miss Fuzzy Britches.
She is? My sister said she read in her Yoga book from the 1980s that she described herself as liberal. Now that was a while ago so she could have changed but what source do you have for that?
