YVETTE MIMIEUX – 77

Yvette Mimieux has been retired for almost 20 years, but her contributions to the film industry are still memorable. She is also an anthropologist; and a very successful businesswoman, particularly in real estate. Before Mimieux got into acting, she auditioned for one of Elvis Presley’s films and eventually got into the final four before being overlooked for the role. Her fate changed after she signed a long-term contract with MGM, and her career peaked thanks to the movie Platinum High School.

Nominated to three Golden Globes, Yvette Mimieux reached the height of her career. Though things may have worked well for her, tough times eventually took their turn.  Mimieux’s career seemed to slow down as he is starting to receive fewer projects. She even hired an attorney and sued her agent for the lack of projects and her fear of bankruptcy. At the age of 78, however, she still looks stunning as she remains flawless and glowing.
