Raquel Welch
Undoubtedly Raquel Welch is an icon from the 60’s, 70’s, and 80’s – known for her unique persona, strong female leads, and the shedding the status of a “sex symbol”, Welch was loved and admired by all. So when she released her own line of fitness books and videos in the 80’s, people were buying whatever she was selling. In 1984 she released her first set of books and videos, The Raquel Welch Total Beauty and Fitness Program. Welch’s book includes a hatha yoga fitness program along with her personal views on healthy living and nutrition – the book also included a section on beauty and personal style. Before you ask, Welch is still making television and film appearances.

Suzanne Somers
While we easily recognize Suzanne Somers as Chrissy Snow from Three’s Company and Carol Foster Lambert from Step by Step, she is so much more. Throughout the 80’s, Somers was the spokesperson for Thighmaster and appeared in many infomercials for them. The 71 year old is also the author of many best-selling self-help books, including four diet books.
