Married to Quincy Jones, of course. Mother of Rashida, who I believe just had a baby last year. Best piece of gossip I read about her was that she was Paul McCartney's LA fuckbuddy just before he hooked up with Linda in the late 60s. Supposedly left Q after she got involved in some kind of pseudo-religious sect iirc.

Beautiful woman.

to the person s comment that her brother was robert lipton. Robert lipton and sharon tate were close friends. A few days before her death, Sharon attended a screening at the studio of an episode of marcus welby md........ that robert had a part in, she was 8 1/2 months pregnanat, that was typical of sharon to put herself out for friends.

Both Robert and Peggy Iipton attended sharon s funeral.

I always really like peggy lipton. I remember her mostly from mod squad reruns/ a roommate of mine nicknamed the show, the modwad which I found amusing.

I remember Peggy s house in bel air was featured in arch digest a longlong time ago. It had a famous pedigree architect and the title of the article was................. bel air fugue.......................... that always stuck with me for some reason.

I wondered if Peggy retired more or less from acting as she was married to quincy jones and she didnt want to deal with the interracial couple thing. It probably didnt help her career from many years ago.

That's a great clip R150. Peggy was really lovely. With shiny hair and pretty countenance, beautiful smile and dark eyes. Brown eyed blondes always look a bit sad, in a good way. The Hollywood Palace is before my time, but but she could sing well enough to be there, even if she looked charmingly uncomfortable. Lipton didn't project the slightly slutty quality of Sharon Tate, the smirky satisfaction of Cybill Shepherd or the vacant beauty of Michelle Phillips. Maybe her talent wasn't huge, but she is being very fondly remembered for a whole lot more.

No R160. Sammy lost his eye in a car accident. He had a long recovery. Harry Cohen (the mob) did put a contract on him for dating white girls, specifically his big affair with Kim Novak. They gave Sammy 48 hours to marry a black woman. He paid a basic stranger 10 grand and did!

He married a white woman later, someone who was not an asset to the studio system. Sammy was a wildly ambitious and progressive man. He was also an apologist when he needed to be. A sign of the times. Why would anyone fault Peggy Lipton for marrying Quincy Jones? She obviously didn't give a fuck what people thought. Jones ain't the best man but he is a great talent.

R163 It's funny you should say that, I've pondered the same thought. The men and women of 60s/70s cinema (usually born in the early 1940s) had such a healthy and vibrant beauty. And what I loved the most is that they looked like actually adults. So many actors /actresses now have an incredibly childish and adolescent type look. I prefer a more mature aesthetic but it seems to be rarer in film now, and not as preferred by the public.

R181 is correct. Lots of women wear center parts even now, but hairdressers recommend a slightly off center or messy part to be more flattering to most all women. The center part with straight hair is very severe. But don't pretend that Cher and Demi Moore haven't worn it (as older women) quite well. You don't need perfect features or to be young, but you do need large eyes, a good nose and a strong lower face to look great in pin straight long center parted hair.

R183 could wear any kind of hair. She still has a pig nose and blow up doll mouth. A terrible example of anything beautiful, but I guess she was in style then?

The wavy hair messy part teased topped beach waves don't count. You might as well post Sarah Jessica Parker. R170 is still correct. No one but perfect oval faced girls with cornsilk hair and bow lips and symmetrical eyes really look GREAT in the Peggy Lipton hair. Lots of young women wore it I guess. Ted Bundy killed everyone but Peggy and Cher.

R187, besides knowing next to nothing about past hairstyles and fashion, you're an idiot too. Jean Shrimpton, was one of the most famous models in the 1960s, she sure didn't have a pig nose, not when she started modeling. Somewhere along the way she seems to have had a nose job.

Jean and her BF at the time, actor Terrence Stamp epitomized Swinging London. They were the most glam couple on the scene.

Jean was gorgeous, she was photographed by all the greats, Avedon and David Bailey to name a few. Sorry if you are so damn clueless.

R187, clueless yet again, with Cher and Demi Moore, both women had/have super thick luxurious hair. It's not as if either of these women even had thin, flat, stringy hair which they parted in the middle. They both had amazing manes!

Actress Olivia Hussey had amazing hair The thicker and healthier the hair, the more you can hide any facial flaws. Not that she was unattractive, not at all, yet women with thick healthy looking hair don't need perfect features to wear certain styles. Their luxurious hair becomes the focal point, not their face.

Get educated, please do talk to an intelligent hairstylist, one who actually knows about hair and how it affects our features. Some women and men can get away with closely cropped hair, while others can never get away with the 'bald look'.

Dude, I recognize that you're crazy, so I won't prolong my own agony R188 and r190. You've already got a thread going about horse face Liv Tyler and you've had multiple threads on geek fashion models of your youth. Not to mention Tori Amos, your failed plastic surgery obsessions and that penile implant that went wrong. I think you like Joan Jett too and think she is the greatest female rock singer of all time? Obsessed loser. Like I said I know you're nuts.

I ain't 60 years old man - this is all before my time, but my observations are correct. No matter how much hair and makeup someone piled on R183, that's still a pig nose girl of no consequence with bad teeth. The other pics you post just elaborate the theme. She was a beauty? Because of her HAIR, but without it, an ordinary chick. Famous models were just that - famous models. Liv Tyler was a successful model and she was born a brain damaged man. She used to be Bruce Willis.

Peggy Lipton was the apposite and opposite of all that. Her hair was pretty, but she was the beauty. Her life was lovely, she died a bit young.

Get your asshole pics of sixties models with big hair out of this thread. And stop talking about how thick or THIN things are, given your unfortunate problems with penile injections. If I want the opinion of a world class hairdresser (I already quoted one of film's finest) I sure don't need to consult an ancient white fag from datalounge.

What does this incoherent rant even mean: "Liv Tyler was a successful model and she was born a brain damaged man. She used to be Bruce Willis." GET HELP, dude!

Family members worked in fashion and showbiz for many years, I've always been around creative people with wonderful stories about showbiz, fashion and musicians. I'm sure not 60. Nowhere near it. One of my relatives was a fashion photographer and another, a session musician. I personally know a very famous guitarist.

Or does your posts always consist of accusations and troll-life behaviour?

Yes, Jean Shrimpton was a super model in her day, for some reason that actual information seems to really burn your ass, but it's the truth. Stop arguing with me and just Google. She was also the face of Yardley cosmetics. Which Rimmel has recently stolen their tag line, "The London Look".

Odd how such a 'young man', I assume you are a man, is 'somehow' obsessed with Peggy Lipton. Hmmm, wonder why and how. See how that works? Use your fucking brain! You accuse me of being "ancient", yet you are obsessed with an actress you really should know very little about. Many, even from Peggy's age group, have all but forgotten her. Peggy was known to younger people as Rashida Jones mother and Quincy Jones ex-wife. As well as for her more 'recent' work, on Twin Peaks.

Agree with R191, Peggy was an ethereal beauty, unlike many posted throughout this thread of 60s/70s actresses, etc. The difference is striking. A delicate bone structure, sensual (but not huge) lips, and very deep, soulful eyes (unlike the dead/googly eyes throughout this thread). Her brooding, mysterious aura also added to her charismatic appeal.

R198, please STFU , you are clueless. Obviously a troll.

Sure, Peggy was pretty, yet not as SPECIAL as you and the other drooling lunatic in this thread are OBSESSING about. Peggy was a cool chick and pop culture icon, but her beauty? She wasn't as facially perfect as you two keep going on about.

Peggy actually had a large odd nose, interesting how you seem to be missing that important point. In certain photos Peggy looked stoned! Her eyes looked dead in a lot of photos.. "Mysterious aura", what are you writing, fan fiction??

None of the actresses and models in this thread have "googly eyes", do you even know the meaning of googly eyes?! Especially not Joanna Shimkus. Large eyes don't automatically translate to "googly eyes". Protruding eyes are actually the definition of "googly eyes".

That's very true some of the best fashion designers have been gay men as well as iconic hair stylists as Vidal Sassoon but Vidal was straight.

The problem with this thread, when others simply wanted to talk about hairstyles and hair texture being important and critical factors in an actress or models appearance, that wacko came in to tear apart one of the most famous and iconic fashion models of the 1960s, Jean Shrimpton. I can imagine their meltdown if anyone posted photos of Twiggy, she wasn't exactly the epitome of sexiness, yet a super model in her day nevertheless.

Another problem with these types of control freak posters, they want to reign over a thread's trajectory. They must be new here. DL threads always veer off course, which is not a huge deal.

That loon wasn't even allowing anyone to have their own opinions. I have no idea what's happening to DL, it's never been filled with this level of mentally disturbed people. Their statement about Liv Tyler being born a man was particularly insane, especially as she's got a few kids she gave birth to, she's clearly a bio woman.
