Shelley Duvall pictured in 1970; a Texas beauty queen who was always owning her own uniqueness and individuality 🕊️ Shelley’s brother Stewart on her cool girl looks – “She was always changing her hair, her looks. She wore white go-go boots, a pageboy haircut in one period, tie-dye and flowing things in another. I heard she quit typing in high school to save her fingernails. And she wore huge false eyelashes; they looked like butterflies on her eyes.” (LA Times, 1991) Shelley absolutely owned those long lashes, which earned her the nickname “Texas Twiggy” granted by columnist Earl Wilson. 📸; Photo shared with me by Bernard Sampson, Shelley’s ex-husband (m. 1970-1977). He still has quite a collection of Shelley photos & letters!

“Shelley Duvall gives a perch to a cockatiel named Wilbur, who’s part of the huge aviary she keeps in one of her five bedrooms.” (People Magazine, 1987) It’s not a big surprise that Shelley is a huge animal lover! This People magazine article mentions that at this time, she had 27 birds, five dogs, and one cat in her Studio City home that she shared with boyfriend Kim Cranston. She still owns three birds today. #shelleyduvall #1987 #1980s #actress #celebrity #retro #throwback #peoplemagazine #photoarchive #80sstyle #cockatiel #birdsofinstagram #birdlovers #80saesthetic #nostalgia #moviestar #helloimshelleyduvall #fanpage

Shelley Duvall with iguanas and lizards behind the scenes of Trevor Rabin’s Something to Hold on To music video, 1989. 🦎 These charming photos always gain traction on the internet of people labeling the animals as her pets but they were actually owned by Henry Lizardlover, who featured them in the same music video. He posted these images on his Facebook page throughout the years. However, Shelley did own a few lizards herself at one point. #shelleyduvall #1980s #celebrity #actress #film #80s #lizards #henrylizardlover #hollywood #trevorrabin #wendytorrance #oliveoyl #theshining #80sfashion #throwback #nostalgia #80saesthetic #80sstyle

Roxanne premiered on this day (June 19) in 1987. Filmed in British Columbia, Shelley Duvall played the supporting character, Dixie, alongside Daryl Hannah and Steve Martin. The movie is a modern retelling of the Cyrano de Bergerac story – but with a happy ending. #shelleyduvall #stevemartin #darylhannah #roxanne #1987 #onthisday#moviescenes #cinema #actress #hollywood #moviestar #80smovies #80sfashion #cyranodebergerac #movierecommendation #80s
Shelley Duvall and Harry Nilsson in the makeshift recording studio on set of Popeye, 1980 – if you look closely you can see the “paneling” was made out of egg cartons. 🎶 Nilsson was hired to write the music for Popeye including Olive Oyl’s ballad, He Needs Me. A really lovely demo of Shelley singing the track exists on the newer edition of the Popeye soundtrack. I’ll share in my stories. Since the release of Popeye, He Needs Me has snuck its way into pop culture. Shelley’s recording is featured in Paul Thomas Anderson’s Punch-Drunk Love (2002), it also appears in a 2011 Nike commercial, and pop star Carly Rae Jepsen even sampled the tune in her song Everything He Needs. It’s also been trending on TikTok in recent months. Shelley and Nilsson made a timeless tune that is soft, vulnerable, delicate, and relatable. #shelleyduvall #popeye #oliveoyl #harrynilsson #1980s #malta #popeyevillage #robinwilliams #robertaltman #80s #groovy #vintage #musical #moviesoundtrack #heneedsme #moviefacts #cinema #behindthescenes #fanpage #photoarchive #actress #celebrity #80sstyle

A year ago today I was invited to meet Shelley’s ex-husband, Bernard Sampson, (m. 1970-1977) in Houston and he had quite the collection of photos & letters from Shelley’s early career I’ve never seen before. It was heaven. 💗 There’s so many finds from this meeting that I haven’t posted yet! Cover photo: Shelley and Bernard photographed at their home for the Texas Sunday Magazine, September 1971. He still has the tapestry that’s behind them – see the last photo. #shelleyduvall #texastwiggy #actress #celeb #vintage #photoshoot #archive #moviestar #houston #texasgirl #fanpage #wendytorrance #oliveoyl #cinema #1970s #houstonchronicle #throwback #nostalgia #archives

‼️ PO BOX CLOSES AT THE END OF JULY AND I WILL NOT BE RENEWING MY PO BOX LEASE. If you want to send mail but you haven’t done so already please send asap. I’m excited to announce that I’m (temporarily) accepting fan mail for Shelley Duvall as a way to lift her spirits during difficult times 🫶🏻 I’ll I ask is that you send LETTER SIZE ENVELOPES/CARDS only to my PO Box. And to keep the content simple and easy to read. Please NO packages/gifts/fan art and NO autograph requests. Any packages/gifts/fan art/autograph requests will be returned or tossed out. Since this address is only temporarily please don’t spread this address around the internet and only share my original posts announcing this. I just want to offer other fans a way to reach her since many people have asked me. I’m hoping to give these letters to Shelley directly, but of course I CANNOT promise that every letter will be open & read by her so keep that in mind and be respectful of the directions above. Shelley deserves to feel the love from all the fans. 🥰💌💐 Sarah, xo #shelleyduvall #celebrity #actress #fanpage #fanmail #theshining #wendytorrance #oliveoyl #popeye #70s #helloimshelleyduvall #moviestar #faerietaletheatre
