You probably know Lisa Whelchel best as Blair from The Facts of Life, but she insists she’s nothing like her character.For the unfamiliar, The Facts of Life aired from 1979 to 1988, and revolved around a group of girls attending a boarding school. Her character famously shared a kiss with George Clooney’s character. And while most of us would revel in that moment forever, she’s always been more interested in sports and bikes than boys and makeup.
“I was a tomboy growing up,” she shares. “[I] played softball, rode motorcycles since I was five, just a tomboy from the beginning.”“I wish I could say that I have some kind of skincare or beauty routine,” she says. “The truth is, I have great genes. My mom looks young, my grandmother looked young, so I just inherited the young genes.
Besides, “why not?” is the best attitude we can think of in terms of beauty and aging. “I’ve struggled with weight all my life, but it’s come in handy in the later years,” says Whelchel. “Because if you carry a few extra pounds, you don’t have as many wrinkles. They just kind of fluff out a little bit.”Follow us on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest for nonstop inspiration delivered fresh to your feed, every day.
