For Dyan Cannon, age is more than just a number.

The 88-year-old actress known for her role in “Heaven Can Wait” tried to visit the White House this week. However, as shown in a video shared online by her group of friends, the Secret Service turned her away due to an age mismatch on her passport.

She made the trip to Washington, DC, alongside fellow actresses Kym Douglas and Tracey Bregman, as well as TV personality and chef Christine Avanti-Fischer.

The group hosts a new podcast, “God’s Table.” 

They went out to do some sightseeing, but there was a hiccup in their plans.

“We’re all set for an amazing tour with the Secret Service and federal agents here, but we’re stuck outside because there was a fib about someone’s age,” Douglas, who was recording the video, explained.

Cannon laughed throughout the explanation as Bregman and Avanti-Fischer teased her.

“Listen,” Cannon said. “Years ago, here’s the thing, I lied about my age on my passport.”

“Who doesn’t, Dyan?” Douglas joked.

Avanti-Fischer remarked, “If we get in, it’s going to be a miracle of God.”

The video was originally shared by Douglas on her Instagram story Thursday, but Cannon reposted it to her own page, writing in her caption, “And I’d do it again.”

She added, “It’s nobody’s business what the number is they’ve pinned on me ….right girls? Right guys? it’s just a blinkin number… no matter what number they put next to me there’s one thing that never changes …I WUV WU”

Bregman commented on the post, writing, “Hilarious. Love you so but seriously, how can I change my age.”

Cannon has been a force in the entertainment industry for decades. She got her start in show business by appearing in various TV shows in the 1950s, and, in 1962, she appeared in her first Broadway show.

Her breakthrough role came in 1969, when she appeared in “Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice,” a role that earned her her first Academy Award nomination.

She was later nominated for the award for best live action short film for 1976’s “Number One,” which she produced.

This nod made her the first woman nominated for an Oscar for her work in front of and behind the camera.

Cannon has also had a storied love life, which included marrying legendary actor Cary Grant in 1965. The couple welcomed one daughter, Jennifer, before divorcing in 1968.

She got married a second time in 1985 to real estate investor Stanley Fimberg, but the couple split in 1991. She also had what she once called a “love affair” with Johnny Carson.

Earlier this year, she told People that “of course” she’s still dating.

She told the outlet she was seeing “somebody very special,” then clarified that she was actually seeing “several special [people]. … I have friends with benefits, yes.”
