Christmas came early this year because Lifetime announced today that they are bringing some of the ’80s most beautiful divas together for a telemovie.
Ladies of the ’80s: A Divas Christmas stars Loni Anderson (WKRP in Cincinnati), Morgan Fairchild (Falcon Crest), Linda Gray (Dallas), Donna Mills (Knots Landing), and Nicollette Sheridan (Knots Landing and Dynasty).
In Ladies of the ’80s: A Divas Christmas, five glamorous soap opera actresses reunite to share the spotlight to shoot the final Christmas episode of their long-running soap opera. The producer, Alex (Travis Burns) and director Nell (Taylor Ann Thompson), who happen to be old college friends, do their best to keep things on the rails but as the ladies come together, old rivalries resurface that threatens to tear the whole production apart. With the show nearly canceled before it even begins due to the ladies’ famous diva behavior, they reluctantly agree to set aside their differences and past secrets to “act” as if they all still love each other. When old sparks reignite between Alex and Nell, the ladies become eager to play cupid and conspire to bring the couple together. Along the way, the divas also discover that the love between them all is still very strong too.
Ladies of the ’80s will debut later this year. But since it is already filed, I hope it is soon rather than later because I can’t wait to see this film.
So many gorgeous women in one place, and not a single one of them looks any different than they did in the ’80s. They just keep getting better and better with age!

Before Linda Gray was married to J.R. Ewing, she was dating a guy and smoking Viceroy cigarettes with him. How beautiful was the 23-year-old in that 1964 commercial? It almost negates all the negative messaging from that era.
Back in the ’80s, people were glued to their televisions watching Knots Landing, Dynasty, and Dallas. However, we never saw the show’s biggest divas in one room.
However, now we are because Donna Mills, 82, Joan Collins, 89, and Linda Gray, 82, are featured in Hello magazine, and we got this photo of Abby Fairgate, Alexis Carrington, and Sue Ellen Ewing.
And how gorgeous do all of those leading ladies look? So much so that I feel like there is a show in there somewhere. Could you imagine them bringing back the Primetime Soaps genre? It would be a huge hit! Especially with all of the catfights.

On Saturday, Linda Gray turned the big 8-0. However, I would never believe it. I mean, her birthday cake says it, but her face doesn’t.
The Dallas star is not only aging with grace, she is also aging beautifully. Although, she has always been beautiful. The actress is just getting even better with age.
