The “I Dream of Jeannie” star recently told Closer Weekly that health and fitness have always been a priority in her life.
"They have [serum] drops [called] line repair," said Eden. "I use that morning and night. I also use sunscreen. I don’t go out without sunscreen… I [also] don’t wear makeup unless I’m working."But one thing Eden refuses to give up, no matter her age, is her sweet tooth. Some of her favorite treats include gumdrops and marshmallow circus peanuts."They’re a holdover from my childhood," she said. Earlier this month, Eden spoke to Fox News about her iconic role as a 2,000-year-old genie in the beloved ‘60s sitcom. She described how her belly-baring costume caused a stir at the time."When we did the pilot and the first 13 episodes, they didn’t say anything about it," she explained. "But when we came back, they suddenly decided they had to put a lining in the pantaloons. Someone was always on set, constantly making sure we followed the best practices. The bottle couldn’t be in Larry’s bedroom. The smoke couldn’t be there. It was a little ridiculous, but it’s funny. But anyway, it worked!" Eden previously described how Mike Connolly, a columnist for The Hollywood Reporter, had a fascination with her navel, which was famously covered in the series."It didn’t so much help me become a star, as I was known because I had done lots of movies before I did ‘I Dream of Jeannie’ at studios like MGM, Columbia and Universal," the actress explained to The Hollywood Reporter in July.More Related News
