LOOKING worlds away from her acting heyday, this Golden Globe winner appeared unrecognizable on a recent outing.
Known for starring in a string of hit films in the 70s and an iconic 80s TV show, the actress was seen stopping for groceries with her assistant in Los Angeles.
Wearing blue jeans, black trainers, and a bright blue shirt, the 74-year-old Memphis-born former model cut a low-key figure.
With her blond hair tied back and off her face and sunglasses covering her eyes, the Moonlighting star made a rare public appearance as she ran errands.
That’s it, you’ve got it, it’s Cybill Shepherd.
The star’s career began in the 70s and rose to global prominence in the 1980s as Maddie Hayes on the detective drama, Moonlighting.
Cybill starred alongside Bruce Willis in the hit drama which ran from 1985 to 1989.
But despite Cybill and Bruce’s undeniable on-screen chemistry, in real life the duo had a tense relationship.
Cybill even once admitted that they “hated each other” while working together.
In 2005, when asked about their frosty off-screen relationship, Cybill spilled: “I remember at one point in the show, it had gotten to where we just hated each other.”
LOVE FOR BRUCE
Despite not seeing eye-to-eye, Cybill was devastated when Bruce was diagnosed with aphasia, telling fans she would “always love him”.

Recalling auditioning for Moonlighting with the star for the first time she revealed: “My temperature went up 10 degrees.
“That meant two things to me: one, I was very attracted to him, two, I would never act on it, ’cause we were both very attracted to each other.”
She added: “I will always love Bruce.”
