Sometimes glamour never ages and it seems Morgan Fairchild is remaining just as fantastic as her prime years in the 1970s and '80s.

Saturday, Feb 3 is Fairchild's 68th birthday and her youthful appearance disguises her age.

The Denton, Texas native moved out to New York City to begin her acting career and it steadily picked up through the years. From TV appearances on popular 20th-century shows like "Happy Days" and "Roseanne" to recent shows as a guest star in "Bones" and "Revenge."

These days, Fairchild stays busy with her activism groups and keeps her Twitter followers informed about current issues and politics, regardless if they want to hear it from her or not.

"Some of my followers don't really expect the eclectic nature of my interests,' she told The Daily Beast in 2014. 'They don't expect me to be interested in military policy, and the issues of war, and State Department issues. 'Well, I never thought I'd be getting my news from Morgan Fairchild!' is something I get sometimes."
