Gossip Column Magnet

tidbits about Shelley, Charlene Tilton and Michael Douglas
from Modern Screen magazine, 1980

When Shelley joined the cast of Charlie's Angels in 1979, she immediately became a gossip column magnet. Everything about her was news - even before she filmed anything for the TV series. It wasn't unusual though. Every Angel that came before her (and even after) experienced the same thing. Shelley told E! in 2002, "I had press people crawling in my windows." But Shelley was determined to keep her privacy - and the privacy of her family. She didn't want them to undergo the scrutiny she was going through just because she joined the hit series.
