Very saddening. She was still way hot into her 50s. RIP.

She was extremely sexy without looking like a slut. Like another poster said upthread, not all tatted up or pierced all over.

Just classy and sexy.

“Never understood why she was considered so hot”

Who do you think is hot? (and don’t say your wife)

No that’s Raquel. Claudia was at least as hot. Certainly prettier.

“What a classy lady. This breaks my heart.”

Agreed, always liked her, she seemed like a very down to earth person.

RIP Raquel Welch!

The trailer from Mother, Juggs, and Speed.

I liked her in that.

And if you watch the trailer, talk about a preview of coming attractions.

Those were the days when young guys said they liked women for their minds and personalities and read Playboy for the articles. 😇

Her book on yoga and beauty in 1984 was based on her work with the late Swami Satchidananda’s system of using hatha yoga. The guru stayed celibate despite consultations. He did persuade her to stop smoking. He gave the opening invocation and speech to begin Woodstock. Still available on cd and download.

More fool Cher for appearing with Raquel. Cher is beautiful and talented, but she was never going to beat Raquel in the sexy and voluptuous stakes.

The only other person who fell into the same kind of “sexy but virginal” vibe as Raquel Welch was Doris Day. And even that is not a complete comparison.

Doris Day was the “girl next door”, while Raquel Welch was “the feral woman”.

Raquel could have been a war queen.

Two different vibes, as you said.

I always thought Thursday was pretty, but not sexy. Marilyn Monroe, rock Hill, Sophia, Loren… They were sexy.
