At 91, she’s still going strong. This legendary actress shows no signs of slowing down.
Carol Burnett, the iconic American actress and comedian, is best known for her groundbreaking comedy-variety show, The Carol Burnett Show, which captivated audiences from 1967 to 1978. Even at 91, Burnett continues to amaze, recently captivating viewers with her role in the Apple TV+ series Palm Royale, a drama set in 1969 Palm Beach, Florida.
Born on April 26, 1933, in San Antonio, Texas, Burnett was raised by her grandmother due to her parents’ struggles with alcoholism. In the 1940s, they moved to Hollywood, where Burnett pursued theater at the University of Southern California. Her big break came in 1957 on The Ed Sullivan Show with a comedic song that playfully spoofed young women’s adoration of Elvis Presley, catapulting her to stardom.
Burnett’s career has spanned decades, with unforgettable performances not only on television but also in movies, musicals, and Broadway productions.
