How Old Is Rita Moreno?
Born in 1931, Rita Moreno is now approaching 90 years old. She was the subject of a recent documentary called Rita Moreno: Just a Girl Who Decided to Go for It, but there’s a lot the actress left out of her never-ending interviews. The now 89-year-old is still a looker, but back in her heyday, she was a sex object.

“You hate it when they call you a sex object,” she told Yahoo! “And here’s the truth, and this is something I didn’t mention in the film only because I didn’t think about it: I would dress up in a very, very provocative way.” Moreno said she would always wear “tight little dresses with my cute little bum”—but she “somehow never acknowledged” that it “wasn’t helping.”
