Victoria Principal: Good Genes or Good Docs?

In the '80s, Victoria Principal could do no wrong as good girl Pam Ewing on "Dallas" -- and today she's still all right.

Victoria Principal

Here's the 34-year-old back in 1984 (left) -- and 25 years later, the 59-year-old updated version at an event in Malibu last week (right).

She's a well-oiled machine.

31. A couple of weeks ago TMZ had a similar survey involving Linda Gray who played Sue Ellen. Linda has aged gracefully and looks beautiful. Wether she had a lil help is unsure but she certainly had it done right. Victoria looks horrible. She doesn't even look like herself. How does she have a skin care line??? Who buys it with her as a spokesmodel??? Victoria should have followed her Dallas co-stars lead and just age gracefully.

32. I agree with several of the comments made. I don't think it's good genes because if she hasn't had surgery then she needs it but if a doctor has done this to her, she needs to sue! She hasn't aged well!

33. She probably thought 25 mil was nothing compared to what Glassman probably knew about her after 20 odd years. Anyway, of course she had work done. Andy Gibb said it prior to dying that she was so insecure after the surgery, with the swelling and bruising, that he had to constantly reassure her that she looked fine. Poor guy, he was really in love with her and was never quite the same after she dumped him...which many believe led to his death at such a young age.

They should show pics of her when she was messing with Gibb. Her nose was wider, and I believe her nose job was her first bit of work; it changed her appearance dramatically. After that she jumped on the plastic surgery bandwagon and married Glassman so she could nip/tuck at will and keep it quiet.

Also, it was rumored right after the time she broke up with Andy Gibb that she was older than everyone thought. Hence, not only the surgery (because she was beginning to age), but the breakup because Andy knew she was older and she didn't want it to get out. Unfortunately, Andy was distraught after the breakup and, because of his bitterness, "told all" prior to his death.

34. It 's Botoxed frozen...and she has had and eye lift......so sad that they try so hard and end up looking stupid. My sister does the same thing and my m other told her that if she didn't stop she would end up looking like Michael Jackson.

35. Is it just me or does she look like she could be Paula Abdul's mom? Just sayin...

36. I mean she's definitely had some work done. It looks like she had a subtle nose job, cheek implants and facial fillers. But contrary to what a lot of others on here think, I think she looks really good. She doesn't have that stretched out look that so many older actresses have.

37. I wish I had access to a plastic surgeon. When my bf has sex with me, he says its like throwing a hot dog down the hallway.

38. I wouldn't say good genes or good docs. Way too much work and too many fillers for a woman who was already attractive.

39. hey # 30, you keep saying remarks that Andy Gibb made were prior to his death. Uh, when else would he make them?

40. She is a walking plastic surgery doll, and when she appears on her commercials for "skin care" the camera uses cloudy lenses to try to convince us that she looks good. What a scam!!!!

41. She, among other famous women who get plastic surgery, such as Priscilla Presley ,are my inspiration! I'd rather age with as much grace as possible than to look like a living, breathing barbie doll!

42. Her nose looks like it's collapsed! I know everyone is focusing on her cheeks and eyes but I'm grossed out by her nose - she looks so different now! : (

43. If I remember correctly she is or was maried to a plastic surgeon.

44. Shut up, HM. Nobody cares.

45. #30-- A LOT of people broke up with Andy Gibb. Pam Dawber dated and dumped him as well-- he was a feather-haired hopeless junkie younger-brother-of-some-actually-talented-people who made every relationship miserable for his partner.
It's decades ago-- get over it.
