Mamie Van Doren, 95, Stuns with Youthful Look

Hollywood legend Mamie Van Doren is back in the spotlight and better than ever.

The retired actress and model, now 95, is one of the last living stars from the Hollywood golden era of the 1950s.

While Van Doren has stepped back from the public eye in recent years, she resurfaced on social media this week to promote the release of her latest memoir, You Thought I Was Dead: My Life of Celebrities, Sex, and Champagne.

Despite being almost a century old, the former screen siren still looks incredibly glamorous and much younger than her years.

Beaming on Instagram, Van Doren donned a long blonde wig with youthful pink streaks and a ruffled black blouse that covered up her famous cleavage. 

Addressing the camera, the starlet said, 'You may not know me if you're of a certain age, but I was present for the sunset of Hollywood's golden age.'

She then shared a raunchy confession about her time in Tinseltown.   

'I rubbed elbows with some of the legends of the silver screen, and if the vibe was right, sometimes we rubbed other things,' she said with a cheeky smirk. 

Van Doren's fans were blown away by her ageless beauty, with one commenting, 'You are THE TOTAL ICON! What an inspiration for ALL WOMEN to keep being sexy, glamorous and fun at any age!'

Another gushed, 'Not dead, and sharp as a whistle! Looking forward to reading your memoir.' 

You Thought I Was Dead is Van Doren's second memoir, following 1987's Playing The Field: My Story.

Playing The Field was re-released in 2013 as Playing the Field: Sex, Stardom, Love, and Life in Hollywood, with brand new cover art and photographs.

Despite sharing her story before, the new memoir promises to reveal even more about Van Doren's wild life. 

In the 1950s, Van Doren was known as one of the 'Three Ms' alongside Marilyn Monroe and Jayne Mansfield.

The trio of blonde bombshells were infamous for their sex kitten personas, and while Van Doren was arguably less renowned than the iconic Monroe or tabloid darling Mansfield, she still became a notable star and has remained in the spotlight for decades. 

Born in South Dakota in 1931, Van Doren got her first taste of the spotlight doing beauty pageants before being discovered by legendary producer Howard Hughes.

She had small roles in a handful of films before her profile received a boost when she got engaged to heavyweight boxer Jack Dempsey, who was 35 years her senior.

From there, she landed a studio contract with Universal, who planned to turn her into their own Monroe.

Bigger movie roles followed and Van Doren eventually found herself sharing the silver screen with A-listers like Tony Curtis, Clark Gable, and Doris Day.

But by the end of the 1950s, Van Doren had lost her Universal contract, so she spent much of the next decade starring in B-movies – many of which have gone on to become camp classics. 

In 1964 she appeared nude in the raunchy comedy 3 Nuts in Search of a Bolt and also posed for Playboy to promote the film.

She's been married five times and has been with her fifth husband, actor and dentist Thomas Dixon, since 1979.

In 1994, Van Doren cemented her place in the history books by getting her own star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. 

In her 'gloriously unfiltered' new memoir You Thought I Was Dead, Van Doren promises to reveal more about her life than ever before.

A blurb for the book calls it, 'a candid, no-holds-barred memoir in which Hollywood icon Mamie Van Doren busts myths, settles old scores, and unveils untold stories from a life lived at the glittering and gritty edges of the Golden Age.'
