Also, I just went to her Wikipedia page and had COMPLETELY forgotten she dated Andre Agassi. She also dated Peter Jennings, Richard Gere, Pierre Trudeau, Liam Neeson, Clint Eastwood, and Peter Weller. Dear celebs of Hollywood: ALWAYS have a spicy Personal Life section on your Wiki page. Do not hold back. SPILL IT. ## Lucille Ball, 1968 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/09/GettyImages-3208070-1600383742.jpg) I enjoy that she's both smoking indoors -- truly a relic of a not-so-long-ago era -- and appears to be reading a script. ## Florence Henderson, 1970 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/09/GettyImages-477637399-1600384094.jpg) Sheers: a scourge for all eternity. ## Cicely Tyson, 1974 ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/bf/b9/bfb99790-924d-4e41-a7e6-5e3c6e04fe57/content/images/static-gofugyourself-com/uploads/2020/09/gettyimages-137484090-1600383930.jpg) She won for "The Autobiography Of Miss Jane Pittman" and looks MAGNIFICENT. I love that dress on her so much, I hope she has worn it regularly since, and she also eerily resembles Michelle Obama in this photo. Who would ALSO look great in this. ## Bea Arthur, 1977 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/09/GettyImages-86249617-1600383833.jpg) She looks exactly as Bea as we all want. Helmet hair, something that looks very blousy... perfect. ## Eileen Brennan, 1981 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/09/GettyImages-141164110-1600383999.jpg) Hey, look, Mrs. Peacock really DID do it all. ## Lori Loughlin, 1982 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/09/GettyImages-1257413672-1600384162.jpg) Lori has just been told by a time-traveler that, for the 2020 Emmys, she will be stuck inside during a pandemic while waiting to start her prison term. ## 1983 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/09/GettyImages-494066447-1600384111.jpg) Eddie hosted, and looks very dapper in his red accessories. ## 1984: Joan Collins, Linda Evans, and Diahann Carroll ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/09/GettyImages-75793207-1600383769.jpg) Diahann wins this one, I think, although I love the sheer random moxie of Joan wearing a long sequin vest. ## 1984: Charlene Tilton ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/09/GettyImages-139757521-1600383970.jpg) Meanwhile Lucy Ewing was on her way to Scarlett O'Hara's when she spotted the fancy red rug. ## 1984: Danny DeVito and Rhea Perlman ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/09/GettyImages-146212577-1600384009.jpg) This dress looks like Rhea took an old summer party fave and clipped on some fabric to add light warmth. ## 1984: Linda Gray ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/09/GettyImages-149570188-1600384018.jpg) This dress makes it look like her nipples just brushed their teeth with Crest. Ding! Sparkling white! ## 1984: Ellen Burstyn ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/09/GettyImages-140366729-1600383982.jpg) Whoops, this is from the International Emmys. But, we're here now. Comfortingly, Ellen would absolutely wear this now, and probably still owns it. ## 1985: Don Johnson and Patti D'Arbanville ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/09/GettyImages-91236562-1600383851.jpg) Patti was on Another World and Guiding Light at various times, so of course that's how I know her. But she also was a friend of Andy Warhol's, and dated Cat Stevens; he wrote "Wild World" about her. And she has a kid with Don Johnson here. See if you can guess what color this is. ## 1985 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/09/GettyImages-91236553-1600383843.jpg) TIS BLUE. Not that shocking, I guess. This gown is the pinnacle of absurd '80s excess and I probably would have coveted the HELL out of it in 1985. ## 1985: Linda Gray ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/09/GettyImages-149571451-1600384030.jpg) Sue Ellen Ewing could wear this now, with a more subdued head-suit of course. ## 1985: Linda Evans ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/09/GettyImages-105862116-1600383876.jpg) Meanwhile the OTHER Nighttime Soap Linda is giving me a carnivale vibe with that. ## 1985: Cybill Shepherd ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/09/119839a-1600383723.jpg) It needs a hoik and a necklace, but I can't be mad at the shoe choice. It probably surprised the HELL out of everyone and it cracks me up deeply. ## 1986: Sharon Gless ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/09/GettyImages-524225060-1600384129.jpg) Yay Cagney! ## 1986: Tyne Daly ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/09/GettyImages-75794724-1600383807.jpg) WHOA LACEY. Someone please get this woman some cold cream for her eyelids. (She was married to Georg Stanford Brown for 24 years! They split up four years after this event.) ## 1986: Alfre Woodard ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/09/GettyImages-75793691-1600383779.jpg) Fabulous. ## 1986: Linda Evans ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/09/GettyImages-75794275-1600383788.jpg) That gown is lovely, and her hair is doing the absolute most to look like there is a stiff breeze. ## 1986: Joan Collins ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/09/GettyImages-75794359-1600383798.jpg) I like to imagine that Linda and Joan, rivals on Dynasty, staged a lily-pond fight at a post-party because they wore such similar dresses. And then laughed and drank a shit-ton of Champagne. ## 1986: Deidre Hall ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/09/GettyImages-139570704-1600383939.jpg) Doc! You look like a very rich society kook and I am loving it. ## 1986: Vanna White ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/09/GettyImages-139652172-1600383960.jpg) It was a sparkly year, apparently! ## 1986: Linda Gray ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/09/GettyImages-149571728-1600384040.jpg) The top of that is absolutely stolen from an ice dancer. ## 1986: Ali MacGraw ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/09/GettyImages-115367013-1600383903.jpg) Ali is leaning HARD away from all the flowers she added to this. Pollen is a beast. ## 1986: Tina Yothers ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/09/GettyImages-163217532-1600384068.jpg) She was 13 when this was taken, and for 1986, this is a superb time capsule. ## Tempestt Bledsoe ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/09/GettyImages-156261631-1600384059.jpg) How did those not give her a migraine? Wait, maybe they are doing it RIGHT HERE. ## 1987: Jason Bateman and Justine Bateman ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/09/GettyImages-886988234-1600384137.jpg) Oh, Jason, those pants seem tight. As for Justine, it's time for another round of WHAT! COLOR! IS IT! ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/09/GettyImages-115406479-1600383912.jpg) The answer is... a thick mustardy beige? With tights that match waaaay too well. ## 1987: Jackee ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/09/6549593a-1600383733.jpg) She is joy. ## 1987: Courteney Cox ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/09/GettyImages-75797320-1600383817.jpg) This is the year she joined Family Ties, her highest-profile role since the Bruce Springsteen "Dancing In The Dark" video, and she looks so endearingly unsure of it all here. ## 1987: Susan Dey ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/09/GettyImages-105861461-1600383868.jpg) I was JUST thinking about Susan Dey, and how much I'd be into revisiting L.A. Law on a streaming service, and whether any dingus in Los Angeles actually tried to get that put on a personalized plate. I like her outfit, actually. ## 1987: Delta Burke ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/09/GettyImages-140421993-1600383990.jpg) She looks dressed for a Grief Tango. ## 1987: Jaclyn Smith ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/09/GettyImages-187094129-1600384077.jpg) Someone would wear this now. I'm just sure of it. ## 1987: Cyndi James Reese ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/09/GettyImages-488273885-1600384103.jpg) Cyndi is an actress who briefly married Louis Gossett, Jr. She looks fabulous in this, which manages to be a hybrid of a gown and a formal caftan. ## 1987: Alfre Woodard ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/09/GettyImages-886996388-1600384155.jpg) Without the poof in the back, this would also age fairly well. ## 1987: Bruce and Demi ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/09/GettyImages-886995728-1600384146.jpg) 1987 Demi has just been told that in two years she will wear bike shorts to the Oscars, and she's trying to understand HOW exactly that is going to work. ## 1988: Mary Tyler Moore ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/09/GettyImages-107585099-1600383894.jpg) Mary, Mary... this combo is quite contrary. ## 1988: Deidre Hall ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/09/GettyImages-139570967-1600383949.jpg) DOC! Still with the shiny metallics! This is pretty good. ## 1989: Marg Helgenberger and Dana Delany ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/09/GettyImages-106206734-1600383885.jpg) What's up, China Beach?!? ## 1989: Blair Underwood ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/09/GettyImages-76052709-1600383825.jpg) Blair just wants you to know that everyone looks hotter in sunglasses. ## 1989 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/09/GettyImages-453249744-1600384086.jpg) She looks like she rose nude out of a vat of liquid gold and someone tried to cover up her boobs with their hands. [Maybe it was time-traveling Reem Acra](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/reem-acras-collection-wants-to-grab-you-09-2020/). ## Jamie Lee Curtis ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/09/GettyImages-123119837-1600383921.jpg) I want a more interesting bag with this, Jamie Lee. ## Jim Henson, 1989 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/09/GettyImages-71088722-1600383752.jpg) Sniffle. [The Emmys of the '70s and '80sBig hair, don't care.![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/bf/b9/bfb99790-924d-4e41-a7e6-5e3c6e04fe57/content/images/static-gofugyourself-com/uploads/2020/09/gettyimages-137484090-1600383930.jpg)](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/the-emmys-of-the-70s-and-80s-09-2020/)
