Good morning, angels.
In a delightful nod to nostalgia, the iconic stars of “Charlie’s Angels”—Kate Jackson, Jaclyn Smith, and Cheryl Ladd—came together once more, lighting up the red carpet at PaleyFest in Los Angeles. The occasion? A grand 50th-anniversary celebration of the beloved television series that captivated audiences decades ago.
The three actresses, embodying the charm and charisma that made them household names, posed for photographers with radiant smiles. Jackson chose a classic black and white outfit, exuding timeless elegance, while Smith and Ladd embraced soft pastel hues, adding a touch of warmth and grace to the event.
This highly anticipated reunion was first announced in January, stirring excitement among fans. Reflecting on the show’s impact, Jackson shared with People, “Charlie’s Angels surprised everyone when Farrah [Fawcett], Jackie, and I hit the ground running (thanks, in part, to Farrah’s iconic poster) and the pilot went through the glass ceiling.”

“Overnight, we were hailed with something akin to ‘rock star fame.’ When Cheryl joined us in the second season, she added a special element uniquely hers and the crazy went on,” she added.
The three women said in a statement that along with being “lighthearted,” the TV series “quietly delivered the important message that women are just as capable as men.”
“We are proud that we were able to entertain the television viewing audience for an hour each week, let them put their feet up, forget their troubles and, at the same time, inspire and empower young women all over the world,” they said.
“Charlie’s Angels” aired on ABC from 1976 to 1981.
The series initially starred Jackson, Smith and the late Farrah Fawcett before undergoing multiple cast changes.
Ladd replaced Fawcett after Season 1 in 1977. Fawcett quit the show to pursue a film career.
Two years later, Jackson exited the series was replaced by Shelley Hack and then Tanya Roberts, who died in 2021.
Smith was the only original cast member to star on all five seasons.
In 2023, Jackson and Smith reunited for Smith’s son Gaston Richmond’s wedding to Bonnie Lane.
Smith included footage of Jackson in her Instagram video montage from the nuptials.
Before the wedding, Jackson had not been photographed in public in over a decade, with one of the last times being at Fawcett’s funeral in Los Angeles in 2009.
