Prior to her death, Raquel Welch treated herself to a manicure during her final public appearance.
In July 2022, the late “Three Musketeers” actress was photographed receiving a manicure and pedicure at J&J Beauty Lounge in Hollywood Hills, according to images obtained by the Daily Mail on Wednesday.
Welch accessorized her casual white blouse and black jeans with oversized gold hoop earrings and a fedora for the occasion.
The dress resembled the one she wore at her first sighting in almost two years, which occurred in September 2021.
On Wednesday, the “Legally Blonde” actress passed away. She was 82 years old.
Raquel Welch, the iconic bombshell actress of film, television, and the stage, died quietly this morning after a brief illness, according to a statement released by her manager, Steven Sauer.
In the 1960s, Welch became a certified sex icon after posing in a deerskin bikini for “One Million Years B.C.” Although feeling “demeaned” and later claiming she “almost died” from the weather on set, she credits the part with establishing her career.
In 2012, she told CBS Los Angeles regarding her rise to fame, “The Lord was watching over me or something, because otherwise, why?” “I mean, there was no reason for me to be on top of a volcano in that gear filming a dinosaur movie, and now I’m a star when I return. It’s just nutty.
“I was on the ‘One Million Years B.C.’ set and somewhat bored… “I went to Don Chaffey, the director, and said, ‘I’ve been studying the script, so I’ve been thinking,’” she recounted.
“He looked at me and said ‘Do not’.” I actually felt degraded.”
She is survived by her 63-year-old son Damon and 61-year-old daughter Tahnee.
