At the 52nd Oscars

Shelley at the  52nd Annual Academy Awards in 1980

The 86th Annual Academy Awards was such a hit, it reminded us that Shelley herself attended the annual event back on April 14 of 1980. The 52nd Annual Academy Awards was held at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion in Los Angeles and was hosted by none other than Johnny Carson himself. And after nearly a decade of anti-fashion, Hollywood was returning back to glamor, and its new stars were showing how it was done. New York clotheshorse and Supermodel Shelley Hack, one of the Hollywood's newest stars then, was all about glamor that night. In her black cross-strapped evening ensemble with matching gold accessories and with her nearly-platinum blonde mane blown straight, Shelley was drop-dead glamorous at the event. In fact, her look endures; you can wear it today and still look glam.

Rising Star

When Shelley was cast as Charlie's newest Angel in 1979, she was also suddenly cast into media scrutiny. The media interest on Charlie's rising star was relentless and some reports were very negative. Although Shelley was (and is) a very private person, she knew it was part of the territory and so, like any other big sister, she tried handling it as best she could. But that must have been some year for her.

Bosley Interviewed

THE DAVID DOYLE & CHARLIES ANGELS STORY
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cPnrorwoh3o

British film fan and celebrity photographer Barry Iddon interviewed David Doyle (John Bosley of Charlie's Angels) in June 5 of 1980, when Shelley Hack was out of Angels and Tanya Roberts wasn't cast yet (and in 10 days they had to start shooting season 5! OMG!) The David Doyle & Charlie's Angels Story was posted on YouTube by Barry himself (thank you so much!) 

David said of Shelley, "I'm sorry to see that Shelley Hack chose to just do one year and then go on." Aaron Spelling told Glamour magazine in March of 1980 that it was up to Shelley if she wanted to stay on the show or leave. David added, "She's a lovely, lovely young lady. She's highly intelligent. And I think that it was a baptism of fire too that she came into Charlie's Angels at a time when we were, you know, just struggling to keep our popularity rolling and all. And so she had a... She put in one hard, arduous year and now she's off to, I hope, greener pastures." 

Oh, and Barry said of Shelley, "She's rather a dishy lady like.. Isn't she?" Well, Barry, we agree.

Angels Pub Still

Shelley posed for many publicity stills for Charlie's Angels from 1979 to 1980. In this one, she wore her hair up and donned the blouse she used on the Angels episode "An Angel's Trail." Shelley was gorgeous.

The Mixables

Shelley appeared in the spread called "The Mixables" on JCPenney's 1970 fall and winter catalog. She wore the "modified u-neck wool jumper," a modified-princess-cut  dress that could be worn on it's own or over a shirt.
