61-Year-old Beauty - Victoria Principal

Victoria Principal shot her fame due to the role of beautiful Pamela Ewing in the drama Dallas in 1978. There are two picture of the actress. The left, 33 years younger Victoria looks pretty and innocent in white sloping shoulder gown with matching white necklace and earrings. The crystal beads bijou jewelry make her stunning and radiant; and the right older Victoria looks graceful and demure in modest black shirt with delicate laces.

The 61-year-old actress showed off her trim figure as she enjoyed a shopping trip with a friend in Malibu earlier this week.

Dressed in a pair of jeans and a diaphanous black blouse, teamed with hip leather boots, stylish Victoria could have easily been mistaken for a much younger woman.

The actress, who starred in Dallas for nine years in the Seventies and Eighties, is not expected to join castmates Larry Hagman, 80 , Patrick Duffy, 62 , and Linda Gray, 71 , in the TNT reboot of the hit show, which premieres in the summer. But she certainly looks good enough to return to the fold to play opposite Jesse Metcalfe, 33 , who plays her grown up son Christopher.

Victoria, who was married to plastic surgeon Harry Glassman from 1985 to 2006, has said she frowns upon extreme surgery.

Referring to plastic surgery, Victoria, who has written books on diet and exercise and also markets her own skin care and make-up lines, said: 'It’s sad when I see a woman who has done things to herself in an effort to look younger, and instead she looks some way she never looked before.

'I kind of like the way things are, and although there is a southward shift, it fits me.'

Victoria has been on a mission to get in the best shape of her life so she can look her best when she takes part in Sir Richard Branson's Virgin Galactic space mission.
