The Daredevil 1,162 Posted December 5, 2023 Time to give this 50s, 60s and 70s Hollywood icon, fast approaching 90, her own thread. Famous in her own right, too big for Hollywood Possibilities thread. Looking worryingly frail here 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Famous in her own right, too big for Hollywood Possibilities thread. Looking worryingly frail here I would say she looks perfectly fine for someone who's almost live 90 years. I've interacted with many people 90 years old and above who look much worse than that. The fact that she can seemingly still walk without the need for a wheelchair or walker speaks volumes. If anything, probably lower list at best because there are a lot sicker and a lot more frail options that are much more obvious. She's still attending industry events, seems to be still mentally with it, and while the photos claim she's frail, they really don't show much more than what seems to be natural aging instead of something to be particularly concerned about. Arguably her brother should also be on the list and may deserve his own thread if he doesn't already have one somewhere. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

msc 18,231 Posted December 5, 2023 Genuinely don't think there's a level of frailty in Shirley MacLaine I'd call worrying tbh. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

La Tombe 319 Posted January 7 She looks frail at almost 90. I give her two more years max. She should be in the DL 2025 and 2026. 10 minutes ago, Gisooo said: Juliette Binoche added a photo with her https://www.instagram.com/p/C1xtm6PP_5l/?igsh=MWllcmFvMHRyZmpoeQ== 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ulitzer95 11,767 Posted January 7 She looks great. Some of the ppl on here literally have no perspective of what an average 90 year old looks like. 5 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lafaucheuse 3,846 Posted April 25 What surprise me is how these paparazzis manage to identify those aging celebs. I could pass her by in the street without even noticing it was Shirley. Same for Gene Hackman who looks more like a homeless man than a Hollywood star lately 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think you're being kind for the sake of being kind, which is quite humble but not entirely truthful. She looks pretty bad in those pics. Needs help walking, and the face is the work of decades of heavy drinking and smoking, not just "the lack of botox". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ulitzer95 11,767 Posted April 25 I like this photo. Shirley Maclaine with younger brother Warren Beatty in 1942. Looking online, a lot of people seem to be unaware and shocked to find out that they're siblings. They had quite a rocky relationship, and didn't Maclaine infamously say something really stupid (and a bit creepy) saying that the worst thing about being Warren Beatty's sister was that she couldn't sleep with him? I don't know why I have that stuck in my head. Maybe someone else can clarify what it was she actually said. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

She's absolutely bonkers. Properly weird beliefs about past lives, Atlantis, UFOs, etc. etc. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sleepiestpeep 136 Posted June 10 Shirley MacLaine in production for a new film: “on the eve of Shirley’s 90th birthday this April, she said to me that three weeks is like a year for her at this age. This story had to be told, and it had to be told now. And she showed up with the stamina of someone half her age. She is at the top of her game.” Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But hey for a 90 year old to be out and about in public and not using a cane, walker or wheel chair is an accomplishment in of itself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
