Who's That Girl?

The 70-year-old resurfaced at a Beverly Hills charity event, looking smooth as silk.

31. To #23 Chicken Skipper--

That's right! I heard she was/is a real B*TCH to work with, always yelling at a studio crew or her own hired help. Yeesh!

32. It's too bad that people don't feel comfortable letting nature take its course and allowing themselves to age naturally. Why do they feel it necessary to try to stay looking like they're in their 30's or 40's when everyone knows their real age? People in Hollywood are all beginning to look alike. It's really creepy.

36. I'm Fifty-One, and she looks better than I do. The only negative comment I have is that she had one too many surgeries done on her nose; you can see the difference in these two pictures. I thought she looked great in That Girl. Her Sister Terre (played a Nun), and her Brother Tony (Producer) both appeared on the show with her.

38. Holy cow she must have had a lot of plastic surgery. That is not what 70 looks like. Weird. Nothing wrong with looking your age; too bad so many people feel a need to have their faces cut up to try to maintain an illusion.

40. #24--Yes his name was Donald her boyfriend. What a fabulous cute show that was---"that girl." I loved it and her voice was so great the way she said "Donald." I think she looks great and it is so wonderful the way she follows in her Fathers footsteps with St. Jude hospital. God bless her!

42. "THAT BITCH" I had her on my flight many times, she tries to portray herself as a eathy caring person riding her wonderful fathers coattails. She is mean, a bit a of a drinker and thinks she is above the common folk. trust me I saw her BS first hand and I am not the only one. out of all the celebs I have ever met she is the crudest and most unkind. she has the air of a better then you person. she is outright crude. Whenever i see her do a St. Judes commercial I want to vomit. I swear she get s a cut of the donated money. She truly disgsusts me and I bet you she reads this site as she always had the tabloids mags. with her on the plane.

43. She looked Okay on "Friends" a few years back...a minor role as JenAss's Mom...but now her face has been erased as in Dun-a-way...especially the eyes...at least put back your bangs. Yes, I hear time and time again what a tempermental, nasty woman she is...her staff (a man wrote a tell-all...the butler)...just people in the acting community....she is grossly disliked here in New York. She once admitted she gave up her acting too soon...too choosey...Sooo cranky...you can see how shell-shocked poor Phil looks...

44. I am telling you Marlo is the biggest Biach there ever was. I actually thought she'd spit on a crew member she was so fresh. No one was bugging her like they were asking her for an autograph or something. She is a Beverly Hills spoiled brat, an early primadonna, from the Hills. As I posted earlier, I have met them all, politicians, musicians , a-list actors and considering I had her on at least 4-5 of my flights, each time was worse.Thankfully Phil wasn't with her any of those times. How he could have stayed married to her is a mystery to me, unless he is as callous as her and just doesn't let the public see it. You suck it big Marlo, I swear you are getting a cut of the St. Judes money sitting on their board and I wouldn't give them a cent for that reason. You disgust me, you big phony!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

45. I'm a man half her age and I think she looks absolutely INCREDIBLE! I can't believe anyone would quible over that and try to pick her apart. I know 25 year olds who would LOVE to look THAT good. When I think of how physically unattractive those half her age are, it angers me that anyone would DARE try to ripped her good looks apart. It would have to be jealousy on their part if they are being THAT critcal of what I deem to be an amazing job of self preservation. I'd be interested in seeing what all these "NAY sayers" look like when THEY are 70. I'm sure they won't look half as good as Marlo when THEY hit that age. Maybe at age 70, they can all look back at how good Marlo looked and eat their own hearts out. You go Marlo! You're STILL "That Girl"!
