'Ladies of the '80s' stars share wellness tips

Loni Anderson and Morgan Fairchild, who star in the new movie 'Ladies of the ‘80s: A Divas Christmas' with three other legends from the era, recently revealed their best tips for looking young.

"I like looking like me," Anderson told Fox News Digital. "And I would like to stay looking like me and not like someone else. So, even if something didn’t work, I don’t think I’d want to change it."

The "WKRP in Cincinnati" alum, 78, compared herself to a "car who needs to go in for the lube and tube and service and stuff like that and the upkeep" to laughter from her co-stars, Fairchild, 73, Linda Gray, 83, Nicollette Sheridan, 60, and Donna Mills, 82. "Whatever it is just to keep your original vehicle going." She also advised using moisturizer.

Choosing joy and gratitude

Gray, who played Sue Ellen Ewing, the wife of J.R. Ewing on "Dallas," said, "I sound a little like my character, but I think it’s about joy, internal joy, being happy with yourself and conditions and the situation that’s going on."

She conceded that women need to hydrate and exercise, "but internally, it’s like you can choose to be anything you want to be. Choose to be happy, choose to be joyful, chose to be grateful, have great gratitude. I think those things are the things that reflect out."

Gray said on the set of "Ladies of the ‘80s," which premieres on Lifetime this Saturday, it was obvious the five leads take care of themselves.

A fun and energizing experience

Fairchild called working on the holiday movie a "party." "Ladies of the '80s: A Divas Christmas" revolves around five stars from a fictional 1980s soap opera who stir up drama as they reunite to shoot their final Christmas episode.

"It was a party, honey," Fairchild said. "As soon as Larry called, the producer, and said, 'I've got this idea and here's what I'm thinking of doing,' and I said, 'Boy, if you can get them, I'm on board.' You know, before you see the script or anything. It's a great idea. It's a fun group. And I'm here."
