About this deal

In fact, Welch had cult-classic moments before and after her ersatz-Jurassic apotheosis. She had appeared with Frank Sinatra in a now-forgotten mystery called Lady in Cement (and in fact had a tiny appearance in the Elvis Presley film Roustabout). She had been one of the crew in the amazing sci-fi movie Fantastic Voyage, shrunk to microscopic size and sent into the body of an important scientist to repair his brain – and inevitably she had to model a figure-hugging wetsuit.

Welch starred in Forget About It (2006), a mobster comedy in which Burt Reynolds, Robert Loggia, and Charles Durning competed for her affection. [93] She played a single billionaire grandmother in the romantic comedy How to Be a Latin Lover (2017). [94] Stage [ edit ] The Raquel Welch Total Beauty and Fitness Program book and videos were first released in 1984. The book, written by Welch with photographs by André Weinfeld, includes a hatha yoga fitness program, her views on healthy living and nutrition, as well as beauty and personal style. The Multi-Platinum collection of Fitness and Yoga videos were produced and directed by André Weinfeld. As a businesswoman, Welch succeeded with her signature line of wigs. She also began a jewelry and skincare line, although neither of those ventures compared to the success of her wig collection HAIRuWEAR. [104] One Million Years B.C.'

In 2011, Welch told Elle magazine she would not remarry. [120] Her last relationship of record, during the early-to-mid-2010s, was with American Idol producer Nigel Lythgoe.

Fox loaned Welch to Hammer Studios in Britain where she starred in One Million Years B.C. (1966), a remake of the Hal Roach film One Million B.C. (1940). Her only costume was a two-piece deer skin bikini. She was described as "wearing mankind's first bikini" and the fur bikini was described as a "definitive look of the 1960s". [33] [34] The New York Times hailed her in its review of the film (which was released in the UK in 1966 and in the U.S. in 1967), "a marvelous breathing monument to womankind". [35] One author said, "although she had only three lines in the film, her luscious figure in a fur bikini made her a star and the dream girl of millions of young moviegoers". [20] A publicity still of her in the bikini became a bestselling poster and turned her into an instant pin-up girl. [36] The film raised Welch's stature as a leading sex symbol of the era. [37] In 2011, Time magazine listed Welch's B.C. bikini in the "Top Ten Bikinis in Pop Culture". [38]

Yet Welch was lured in by seeing an issue of Time magazine, which was promoting then-Swinging London; as she said, “everything was happening in London…there was a whole cultural revolution, with Carnaby Street and all the rest of it.” She decided upon a strategy. “I’ll go to London, I’ll do this turkey, and then everyone will forget about it, and I’ll have myself a great time.”Swift, Andy (January 19, 2017).

Welch later posed for the photographer Terry O’Neill in the outfit, but one picture – of her hanging from a crucifix in the attire – combined the sacred and profane rather too daringly for Hammer’s publicity department. The image was not shown until a Sunday newspaper published it in the Nineties. In 1996, after keeping a low romantic profile for several years, she dated former British boxing champion Gary Stretch, who was younger than both of Welch's children. [116] Welch starred in the made-for-television films Scandal in a Small Town (1988), Trouble in Paradise (1989), and Torch Song (1993). [74] In 1995, she was a guest star in Lois and Clark: The New Adventures of Superman. [75] In the Season 2 episode "Top Copy", Welch played a television reporter and assassin who threatens to expose Clark's identity as Superman. [75] [76] Duffy, Mike (March 14, 1997). "TV Weekend – What's worth watching". Detroit Free Press. Archived from the original on February 17, 2023 . Retrieved February 17, 2023– via Newspapers.com. In 1973, Welch acted in two films: The Last of Sheila and The Three Musketeers. The latter – for which she won a Golden Globe as Best Actress in a Comedy – spawned a sequel, The Four Musketeers (1974). Welch was offered the title role in Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore (1974), which earned an Oscar for its eventual star Ellen Burstyn; she also turned down the chance to play Honey Bruce in the biographical film Lenny (1974), a part that went to Valerie Perrine. [65] In 1975, Welch appeared in The Wild Party [66] and also performed a duet with Cher, singing " I'm a Woman" on an episode of The Cher Show. [67] She then co-starred with Bill Cosby and Harvey Keitel in the action comedy Mother, Jugs & Speed (1976), directed by Peter Yates. Welch's character, promoted from Dispatcher to Emergency Medical Technician after threatening a sexual discrimination lawsuit, is an early example of feminism and equal pay for equal work as she breaks the "glass ceiling" doing a "man's work".Mansour, David. (2005). From Abba to Zoom: A Pop Culture Encyclopedia of the Late 20th Century. Kansas City, MO: Andrews McMeel Publishing, p. 522. In 1997, Welch starred on Broadway in Victor/Victoria, following Julie Andrews and Liza Minnelli in the title role. Theatre critic Jamie Portman wrote that her glamor made Welch "scarcely believable as the vulnerable Victoria and totally unbelievable as the swaggering tuxedoed Victor", but that she at least "earns high marks for valor" for attempting to breathe life into "the misbegotten musical version of Victor/Victoria".
