Shirley MacLaine enjoyed a sunny lunch outing ahead of turning 92 years old.
The iconic actress was photographed exiting a restaurant in Malibu, California, on April 18, holding on to a companion’s arm. She wore a long brown cardigan over a brown top and pants, sporting black glasses.
Just a few days later, she celebrated her 92nd birthday on April 24.

MacLaine is clearly a fan of Malibu lunch outings.
Late last month, she was snapped smiling with a plate of oysters and a beer in Malibu. The “Steel Magnolias” star, wearing a mint green hoodie and black glasses, grinned at the camera while holding up her fork.
MacLaine was also spotted at celeb hotspot Nobu in Malibu back in January, linking arms with a male companion during the daytime outing.

MacLaine has credited her longevity to her long dance history.
“I started my dance training at age 3 and stopped at about 67,” she said in an interview with People in April 2024. “It taught me discipline, loving music, working with people and dealing with pain.”
She also noted she kept a grateful attitude.
“I have my friends and I am really healthy,” she said.

“My mother took me to dancing class when I was three because I had weak ankles and I fell in love with it,” she shared during her speech. “But here’s what it also included: discipline, love of music, a sense of cooperation with other people, being on time.”
“And from that day on, I went to class every day until in my sixties,” she continued. “I would have to say that dance, what I’ve learned being part of it is why I’m still here.”
She also noted that getting an award for dancing was “the most important acknowledgement [she] could have.”
