Ann Jillian – Now 71

As a successful child actress in the 60s, Ann Jillian proved that her radical transformation has only made her into a brighter star, catapulting her to real stardom as an 80’s symbol. Call it luck, but the stunning beauty isn’t the typical cookie-cutter, ever brazen to take on challenging roles.

With 25 film roles to her name, Jillian dazzled Hollywood for more than 40 years. She debuted with a bang alongside acting legend Natalie Wood in the ‘Gypsy,’ showing off her youthful onscreen charm. Then, after two decades of appearances, Jillian landed the role of a lifetime as sultry Cassie Cranston in ‘It’s a Living.’ Today, she preaches motivation and relaxes with family in the Greater Los Angeles area.

Ruth Buzzi – 85

After her return to showbiz following an eight-year hiatus, many doubted Ruth Buzzi’s ability to revive herself as the unrivaled entertainer she was previously known as. While some people would be discouraged by such disbelief in their talent, Buzzi used it as fuel to cement herself as an exceptional star. In no time, she was right at the top where she was before her break and even got the highest achievement honor at the ‘Topaz Awards’ under her belt.

Not even 20 film credits to her name have been enough to slow down this five-time Emmy nominee in her eighties. Buzzi, remains busy with stand-up comedy performances across the U.S, supporting various charity organizations and collecting vintage automobiles.

Alan Dershowitz – Now 83

If a celebrity lawyer has received the media treatment like no other, it’s probably the one and only Alan Dershowitz. Playing the devil in the courtroom mostly as a criminal appellate lawyer, Alan has been the go-to option for big-name celebrities including Mike Tyson and Julian Assange.

For Alan, being a lawyer was not the end of the line in his career, so he tried his hand at being a Harvard professor too. After his successful run in academia, Alan now often features on television and has become a renowned media personality. His presence in the limelight even at 83 years old only goes to show that age is just a number.

Kelly McGillis – Now 64

Since the late ’70s, Kelly McGillis has been winning the hearts of her audiences with her on-screen brilliance. Fans have adored this diva co-starring with Hollywood biggies like Tom Cruise, Harrison Ford, and Jodie Foster. Also, the theatergoers of the early 2000s can perhaps never forget unmatched stage appearances in plays like ‘Don Juan’ and ‘The Duchess of Malfi.’

A winner of several precious accolades, including a BAFTA and a Golden Globe, Kelly now prefers to stay out of the limelight. Family-time is the ‘Made in Heaven’ star’s sole priority now, as she loves spending time with her two daughters in their North Carolina home.

Julie Goodyear – Now 79

Julie Goodyear was diagnosed with cancer shortly after being cast for a permanent role on Coronation Street. While the actress never publicly talked about her illness until she had fully recovered, her frequent absenteeism from the show soon began raising questions among fans.

A year after leaving the program in 1995, Goodyear was honored with a Most Excellent Order of the British Empire and she pursued other interests, including radio DJing and reality TV. Besides her contribution to film and British soap operas, this star is mainly remembered for her bold style and warm personality on Celebrity Big Brother.

French has since been on multiple shows, with his last appearance being on 2014’s musical, The Sound Of Music, as Captain Von Trapp. He has yet to make an official retirement announcement, so we hope the entertainer will be returning to our screens soon, as he is only in his late fifties.

Robert Wagner – 91

Robert Wagner became mildly famous when he worked with 20th Century Fox for the film Halls of Montezuma. This became a turning point for the up-and-coming star, who was struggling to make it big. The project was followed by a few more roles that boosted the actor’s popularity in the acting circles.

It was with A Kiss Before D***g that the actor officially declared he is ready to take over. Having now worked for decades in the entertainment industry, Robert has become one of the most acclaimed artists in the history of American cinema, and it’s not hard to guess why.

The long-running role in Coronation Street was enough for fans to be forever admirals of Thelma Barlow. She was always known to rock the television with performances seen never before. It is unbelievable to know that this talented actress is 91 today.

Her contribution to the entertainment industry reflects her passion, love, and dedication to her work.

The actor, despite being in his late fifties, is still relatively active in tinsel town. We don’t think he will retire anytime soon, and while he was diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2018, James isn’t one to give up quickly, and we hope to see him on our screens in the future.
