Baby Boomer boys grew up having crushes on I Dream of Jeannie’s Barbara Eden and classic TV star Morgan Fairchild, but they never saw the two blonde beauties together.
That was then. Now, they came together for one man. Who is the one man that could get them in the same room? That man was Larry Hagman, and they are part of a documentary about the legendary late actor.
What a lucky man to have two gorgeous ladies who can’t stop talking about him. Can you believe that Paper Doll’s actress is 76 and the Harper Valley PTA mom is 94? I don’t! I think they can get any man hard without the help of any drugs because they are still sexy sirens.

Today is Barbara Eden’s 93rd birthday. However, you would never know it by looking at her with her “darling husband Jon” as they went out to lunch to celebrate her special day.
Seriously, doesn’t the actress look almost half her age?
This makes me think that she not only played a Gennie, but Jeannie really is one.

In 1965, Barbara Eden’s life changed forever when I Dream of Jeannie debuted on television. Since then, the comedy about a genie who is released by an astronaut and they fall in love, has never left our TV sets.
On December 2. 1969, Jeannie (Barbara Eden) and Major Nelson (Larry Hagman) got married. Five months later, NBC divorced themselves from the show. That is when we learned that when the “are they or aren’t they” couples get married, the show barely makes it past the honeymoon stage, like Who’s the Boss, The Nanny, and Castle, to name a few.
So, with that legacy, does Eden think they made the right to marry them off? Last week, when she was at The Hollywood Show, she was asked that very question. “No, they should’ve married. Never.” Then she explained, “She wasn’t human. I mean, come on. She was an entity [?]. And that was part of the funny part of the show, was that she thought that she could just be a human. And he knew she wasn’t. Then they just made her a housewife. She wasn’t a housewife.”
I understand what she is saying, but as a kid, I didn’t care about that. As an adult, I still don’t care about the reality of it all. Do you?
Now, let’s talk about the 92-year-old actress. What was in Jeannie’s bottle? She still looks like she did on the show. She is still just as gorgeous!

Back in the late ’60s, boys were dreaming of Jeannie and couldn’t help falling in love with Mrs. Elvis Presley. However, the two gorgeous women never met to give them the three-way image for them to fantasize over.
That is until now because Barbara Eden. 90, shared a photo of herself meeting Priscilla Presley, 77, at Graceland during Elvis Week. It might be over a half-century later, but they are both still just as beautiful, if not even more so. I want to know their secret.
BTW While Eden never met Priscilla until now, she met Elvis back in the late ’50s when they made the movie Flaming Star. I am sure they talked about how good of a kisser the King of Rock was.

There was something in that Jeannie bottle that Barbara Eden lived in because the I Dream of Jeannie star hasn’t aged a day since 1965. Don’t believe me? Look at the actress, and tell me old you think she is? You would not have guessed 90 if I didn’t tell you.
If that is what being a nonagenarian looks like, then I am looking forward to it.
