Jaclyn Smith, the sophisticated angel who never fell

Actress, entrepreneur, and always impeccable

Jaclyn Smith was born in Houston, Texas, in 1945. She dreamed of being a dancer, but ended up as an actress and entrepreneur, all while never losing her perfect hairstyle.

The eternal angel: Her consecration on TV

In 1976, she played Kelly Garrett in 'Charlie’s Angels', a show that mixed crime, glamour, and impossible hair choreographies. The success of the series turned her into an icon.

The only one who never jumped ship

While her co-stars came and went, Jaclyn Smith was the only one who stayed throughout the five seasons of the series (1976-1981). Loyal to the end to the project that gave her global fame.

Not just a pretty face

Although beauty was her passport, Jaclyn Smith cultivated an image of a strong, elegant, and professional woman. Never scandalous, always impeccable.

Hollywood and Its 'fallen angel' syndrome

After the series ended, many TV actresses disappeared, but she reinvented herself, became an entrepreneur and, unlike many, did not end up in survival reality shows.

The empress of affordable fashion

In the 80s, she launched her own clothing line with Kmart. Against all odds, it sold millions. The key? Affordable fashion with her face on the cover. Perfect marketing and unbeatable prices.

The queen of the TV movie

Throughout the 80s and 90s, she starred in over 30 television films. Family dramas, soft thrillers, biopics. Always with that air of an ideal mother, albeit with murky secrets.

A face that doesn't age

About to turn 80, Jaclyn Smith still looks as if she's stepped out of a hairstyle catalog. She has denied surgeries, although her face suggests otherwise. Hollywood forgives everything, except aging.

Emeritus businesswoman of American style

Besides clothing, she sold perfumes, beauty products, and furniture. One might say she was a Kardashian before the Kardashians. And without the scandals.

Kelly Garrett, the character that never left

Despite everything, Jaclyn Smith could never detach herself from Kelly Garrett, her character in 'Charlie's Angels'. But it didn't seem to bother her: she used it as a personal brand, as a letter of introduction, and, yes, as an eternal key element of her marketing.

A style bulletproof against time

While Hollywood modernized and changed fashions, Jaclyn continued with her pastel blazer and her mane. Like a living statue from the pre-streaming era. And that was her superpower.

Discreet millionaire with no paparazzi

Jaclyn Smith achieved what few could: a life without scandals, a well-managed fortune, and a long career. As if she had read the good angel manual and applied it to the letter.
