This was already posted a while back. She drover herself there (to the pharmacy, as noted in the original post). She's 84 - what should she look like?

She's a natural redhead who's lead a raucous life, who used to smoke, and is seen here in natural daylight with no makeup. Don't expect her to look 25.

She's an old woman who doesn't give a shit what people think. I give her credit for that. She looks like most 80 somethings.

I'm just sorry she treated her daughter who is now a desperate insecure late middle aged woman so badly. At this point in their lives they should be there for each other. But there is so much bad blood now I doubt any reconciliation is possible.

You mean a reality show like Ryan and Tatum. Yeah that certainly helped their relationship. I wonder if Tatum after writing umpteen books about finally getting her life together will end up like Carrie.

At least Carrie had a parent who aside from being a major show business narcissist genuinely loved her.

I have NEVER been a fan of this woman.

In 1956 she was playing the most unconvincing of Indian women.

In 1964 she played an utterly unconvincing Parisian woman for Billy Wilder (unfortunately Wilder was entering his American Schmuck stage and giving work to her and Jack Lemmon).

And she was hanging out with Sinatra and his gangster rat-pack. And in the 80s she went insane over reincarnation.

And last year she appeared for a few moments opposite Maggie Smith which made me think she was comatose, drunk or had suffered a stroke.

by Anonymousreply 67December 29, 2018 3:35 AM

She really proved on Downton Abbey what a hack actress she is.

by Anonymousreply 68December 29, 2018 3:44 AM

Maclaine wasn't capable of a complete sentence on Downton. Her individual words were spliced together.

Maggie versus Shirley resulted a sprightly ten versus a comatose zero.

I know someone who picked her up from the airport when she was in New Age mode and giving a guest of honor lecture in Seattle. The car's windshield had a small chip in it. She pointed to it and asked "Really? Is this the best you could do?"

And anyone who thinks Jane Fonda looks fabulous R13 without makeup and great lighting should go to her Instagram and look at the third to the last pic. There are only 33 pics, so it's easy to access.

Shirley looks like exactly what most 85 years olds look like. The metabolism dies. Don't judge anyone against Jane Fonda. Jane has been perfectly frank about how she tortured her body to look like that. Between over exercising and having both hips replaced, to plastic surgery, to being hungry most of her life. She looks good but feels like shit.
