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.
Before Barbara Eden was married to the Major on I Dream of Jeannie, she was dating the Bachelor Father. How beautiful was the 26-year-old in that 1957 episode?
I Dream of Jeannie is one of the most beloved TV shows. It has been on the air ever since it debuted. However, it did get cancelled after five seasons in 1970.
Barbara Eden feels it could have gone longer, and she has a theory of why it ended. Over the weekend, the actress tweeted, “What was your favorite episode of I Dream of Jeannie? Mine was the pilot and The Wedding, although marrying Jeannie and Tony was a mistake and ultimately brought about the end of the show, also she was just a wisp of smoke, even if SHE thought she was real! -B”
Do you agree with her? TV experts believe her because it is noted as the first show to get the ax for this reason. Other shows that met their fate the same way are Moonlighting, Who’s the Boss?, and The Nanny. Once the sexual tension is gone, so is the show.
Before Barbara Eden could change the color of soap because she was a Jeannie on I Dream of Jeannie, she had to buy colored Dial Soap. How gorgeous was the 25-year-old in that 1952 ad?
Today is Barbara Eden’s 90th birthday. However, you would never know it by looking at her enjoying her celebratory cupcakes today.
She never ages. I want to know what her secret is. But I think it has something to do with sleeping in Jeanie’s bottle. Does anyone know where I can get one?
Although, if the bottle turns back the hands of time as it does for her, then I will be a baby all over again. And I ain’t going through school and puberty all over again.
Now back to our favorite Jeannie. If you didn’t know her real age, how old would you think she is?
