Salley Jessy Raphael Recently Turned 90
The iconic former daytime talk show host also recently celebrated a significant milestone in her life as she turned 90 in February. She spoke to PEOPLE about the occasion and how she’s embracing the changes.
Regarding how she celebrated, Salley Jessy Raphael said, “We went to Paris, my favorite city. And I went to my old haunts. I won’t tell you what they are because then they’d be everybody’s old haunts. But we had a very good time.”
She then said, “We went to two or three museums and not much shopping. I was with two women. Actually, I should have gone with a man because it’s romantic, but I went with two women. So it was good.”
Regarding turning 90 years old, the former “Salley Show” host revealed, “It’s really interesting being 90 because if you dye your hair and you don’t have any veins in your legs, then people say you look young.”
She continued, “And that’s always nice that people say, although why they think looking young when you can claim 90 is beyond me, but they think it’s a compliment.”
Salley also discussed the “privileges” that come from being 90. According to her, “I think that it has to do with the word ‘cute.’ You’re cute when you’re young, and then for a long time, you’re not cute. And then when you get to be 80 or 90, you’re cute again. People always say, ‘That cute old lady,’ so I guess I’m cute again.”
