The 80-Year-Old Jacqueline Bisset Still
Jacqueline Bisset: A Timeless Star
Jacqueline Bisset, 80, has starred in around 50 films over her 60-year career.
Known for her natural beauty and striking green eyes, she became famous in
the late 1960s with roles alongside Frank Sinatra, Steve McQueen, and Tony Franciosa.
Graceful and Independent
Despite attention from stars like Sinatra and McQueen, Bisset never married. “I’ve had some very interesting men…
I don’t choose easy men, I’m told,” she once said, adding, “I don’t ever have bad relationships…
I’ve just moved out of situations that have been overwhelming.”
Award-Winning Career
She finally won a Golden Globe at 69 for Dancing on the Edge after 47 nominations, delivering a heartfelt, if rambling, speech.
Director Russell Brown praised her skill in The Lodger (2022), saying, “Jacqueline is quite different from [her character] Rose.”
Her Secret to Aging Well
“I believe, if you want to look good, you’ve got to forgive everybody,” Bisset said. “It’s the best beauty treatment.”
