Shelley along with other celebrity guests braved the heat of Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, for the McDonald's-Sunday Mail Celebrity Tennis event in April of 1986. The other stars in attendance were Cagney and Lacey star Martin Kove, model-actress Deborah Raffin, Medical Center's Chad Everett, Mission: Impossible's Peter Graves and Lyle Waggoner from The Carol Burnett Show and Wonder Woman - just to name a few. In addition to the tennis event, the Hollywood stars were going to participate in a farewell dinner show where the sponsors will donate $10 for every guest to a non-profit organization dedicated to preserving Malaysia's historical and cultural landmarks. Asian fans came in droves to get a glimpse, as well as autographs, of their favorite Hollywood stars.
