Ageless 80s Icon, 63, Reenacts Famous Valley Girl Scene
Ageless 80s Icon, 63, Reenacts Famous Valley Girl Scene originally appeared on Parade. Actress E.G. Daily isn't forgetting where it all started. The Valley Girl star is getting back to her '80s roots by reenacting a famous scene from the hit teen movie, which also starred Nicolas Cage (as the unlikely heartthrob Randy) and Deborah Foreman (as the conflicted popular girl Julie Richman).Daily, who has since built an incredibly successful career in voiceover work for animated shows and movies like Rugrats and The Powerpuff Girls, played Julie's wild-child best friend, Loryn. While Foreman and Cage delivered plenty of totally tubular lines — like Foreman's classic, 'Yeah, but Tommy can be such a dork, ya know? Like he's got the bod, but his brains are bad news' — it's the movie's iconic sleepover scene that remains one of the most memorable moments of the cult classic. Now 63 (and barely looking a day older than her Valley Girl character), Daily reenacted the famous sleepover dance scene in a recent TikTok video, set to the movie's irresistible opening credits song: 'Girls Like Me' by Bonnie Hayes & The Wild Combo. Fans loved E.G.'s trip back to 1983. One commented, 'Valley Girl is highly underrated.' Agreed. Another wrote, 'Nobody will understand how we felt when we saw that movie.' Totally hearing that iconic theme song brings back rad memories of Saturdays at the mall and endless calls on the family rotary phone.

Friends star, 63, stuns with youthful appearance in new video 28 years after fan favorite role on sitcom
An actress and singer who made a fan favorite appearance on Friends has stunned fans with her youthful glow 28 years later. When she was in her early 30s, Elizabeth 'E.G.' Daily featured as the title character on the 1997 episode The One With Phoebe's Ex-Partner. E.G. made a splash as Leslie, the former singer-songwriter collaborator of Lisa Kudrow 's beloved character Phoebe Buffay. Leslie and Phoebe plunge into a seething feud over Smelly Cat, the song that all fans will instantly recognize as the centerpiece of Phoebe's repertoire. In a scene that Friends devotees remember fondly to this day, Phoebe and Leslie get back together for one last hurrah to sing a duet called Sticky Shoes. Now, E.G., 63, has posted a new TikTok remembering her Friends shot - leaving viewers agog at how she has aged 'like wine' and looks 'amazing.' 'Everybody says that I look like the girl who sang "Smelly Cat" on Friends,' she wrote over a new video of her grinning. 'Probably because I am!' With her hair still blonde, her megawatt smile still radiant and her lithe figure shown off by a crop top, E.G. looked nowhere near her 63 years. Fans flocked to the comments section to gush over how 'hot' and 'amazing' she looks, as one effervesced: 'You age like wine, GORGEOUS.' Other viewers marveled: 'God you're beautiful,' and: 'How do you look so young,' while one prayed: 'Dear gawd , please let me be this pretty when I'm her age.' E.G. enjoys a host of fans who remember her wide variety of roles over the years, including the voice of Tommy Pickles on the children's show Rugrats. Others recall her as Dottie in Tim Burton's classic 1985 feature film debut Pee Wee's Big Adventure, starring the late Paul Reubens in the title role. She has also won her admirers as the voice of Buttercup on The Powerpuff Girls, and a part in the 1983 live-action romantic comedy Valley Girl. However perhaps her most enduring role was on Friends as Leslie, who wrote songs with Phoebe before going off to work for an ad agency. When Leslie hears the tune to Phoebe's song Smelly Cat, she suggests she sell it for a jingle, an idea that Phoebe rejects out of hand. Ultimately, Phoebe gives her old friend an ultimatum - either they can collaborate again or Leslie can hawk Smelly Cat for use as a jingle. Leslie chooses her ad agency, prompting Phoebe to write a song that goes: 'Jingle b**** screwed me over, go to hell jingle w****.' On the personal front, she was married from 1995 until 2000 to Rick Salomon, who infamously co-starred in Paris Hilton's sex tape and whose subsequent wives were Shannen Doherty and Pamela Anderson.
