[Optional] How do they look?

faye dunaway black and whiteSOLVED!

It’s Faye Dunaway!

Yes, Faye Dunaway was fairly unrecognizable while shopping in Los Angeles a copule of weeks ago. Some of you didn’t even realize that she was a woman. “Mickey Rourke” seemed to be a popular guess.

Faye is a highly-esteemed actor in Hollywood. She won the Academy Award for Best Actress in 1976 for her role in Network.

Dunaway has also won three Golden Globes, a BAFTA, an Emmy.

In addition to Network, our favorite Faye Dunaway films include Bonnie and Clyde (opposite Warren Beatty), Chinatown (opposite Jack Nicholson), and, of course Mommie Dearest. In the latter film, she portrayed Joan Crawford and shouted the memorable line, “No wire hangers! Ever!”

Faye Dunaway, who is now 75,  may not have looked recognizable while out shopping, but she did clean up in time for the Vanity Fair party last night (see pic below). She preened for photos, hobnobbed with the Who’s Who of Hollywood, and then hurried off to do everyone’s dishes.

Congratulations to Thrillckr for being first with the correct answer, and to those of you who caught the “wire hangers” bonus clue!

    • I thought it was Kirk Douglas at first but there are breasts and I don’t think Kirk would carry a purse. Pretty sure it’s Faye Dunaway- she has had some bad plastic surgery and she’s just plainly getting older, so your face changes.

    • I think you are right too but boy, does she look like a dude here! I thought it was Mickey Rourke at first.

    • Yes and reference to Mommy Dearest! Her film about Joan Crawford! It’s very sad getting old you know! I’m there with no resources for plastic surgery but perhaps that’s a good thing?

    • I think you’re right. She played Joan Crawford in Mommie Dearest, hence the “wire hangers” clue. This is not a flattering picture due to the hat and the fact that her hair is not visible in the shot. Other than that, I think she’s looking just fine for a 75-year old out shopping!

    • First I thought it was a man in a mustache. Then I thought it was Faye with a fake mustache. Now I realize it’s Faye and there is no frickin’ mustache – it just looks like it – some kind of optical illusion.

    • I’d have to agree with your guess. The bonus clue about “no wire hangers” is a nod to her film Mommy Dearest. Who could forget that scene? Haha!

    • Darn I just saw the bonus clue surprisingly Faye Dunaway and Kurt Douglas resemble one another now

  6. Mickey Rourke. He used to be handsome when he first started his career. He is a victim of bad genes and even worse plastic surgery!

  7. Mickey Rourke. Such a shame – he was so handsome back in the day. Plastic surgery always looks awful – stop chasing the fountain of youth.

    • I saw him on the streets of Greenwich Village a couple of years ago. He looks worse in person! But he sure loves getting attention!

  9. Either Mary Tyler Moore, or Mickey Rourke. Never thought I’d get the two of them confused for the other.

  15. Actor: it kind of looks like Mickey Rourke but I’m going to guess Frank Langella.

    He looks blurry.

    • Could this be Mickey Rourke? Or my last guess is Kathleen Turner. I noticed you didn’t specify if it’s a male or a female and it’s honestly hard for me to tell which one it is.

  32. This is definitely a woman and looks like Mary Tyler Moore to me.

    For being in her 70s, she looks pretty good.

  37. Faye Dunaway

    If it is her, she looks great. She’s 75 years old. Stop the obsession with having to look young at every age.

  46. Faye Dunaway.

    Given she’s 75, she doesn’t look bad, and at this point, I don’t think she gives a sh*t.

  47. Looks like a dude with boobs. You did not say he or she (“they” refers to more than one person, so is this someone in transition maybe?).
