ANN MARGRET

Swedish actress Ann-Margret Olsson rose to prominence following her roles in the films Cincinnati Kid, Bye Bye Birdie, The Train Robbers, and Viva Las Vegas. Throughout her career, she had gotten nominated for two Academy Awards and has won five Golden Globe Awards to her credit. In fact, she even received an Emmy for her guest appearance in an episode of Law & Order.

The thing about Ann-Margret is that she does not restrict her skills to acting alone. She began making music in 1961 and was, at one point, even touted as a female version of Elvis Presley.

She may be in her 80s now, but there’s no slowing the actress down. In 2014, she even had a recurring role in the Showtime series Ray Donovan. While she might be on TV less, there’s no doubting the impact she has made on the industry as a whole.
