Susan Lucci Then & Now: See Her Incredible Transformation on 77th Birthday
Susan Lucci is still stunning as ever as she celebrates her 77th birthday on December 23. See why Susan is still the “Queen Of Daytime TV” in photos spanning her six-decade-long career!
A Hollywood legend! Susan Lucci began her reign as the “Queen of Daytime” back in 1970, when she was introduced by Erica Kane on ‘All My Children‘. She would play the sharp-tongued, alpha-diva on the soap until the series left TV in 2011, making both Susan and Erica icons.
While Susan was an undeniable star, it took some time for the Daytime Emmys to fully recognize her talent. She was nominated for Outstanding Lead Actress 21 times, but only picked a trophy up in 1999 during her 19th nomination. Susan hasn’t slowed down since ‘All My Children’. She’s also had roles in ‘Devious Maids’, ‘Hot In Cleveland’, and the feature film ‘Joy’.
Sharing her definition of success in 2019, Susan said, “Success is not what you have, it’s who you are. Being able to put your head on your pillow at night and feeling happy, grateful, joyous, excited, and all of those good things in your life.” Scroll through to see photos of how Susan Lucci transformed through the years!
