LOS ANGELES: Raquel Welch, the film actress whose sultry, curvaceous looks made her a leading sex symbol of the 1960s and ‘70s, died at age 82 on Wednesday.
Welch came to the wide attention of moviegoers for her role in a 1966 sci-fi adventure, Fantastic Voyage.
It was followed by her iconic appearance later that year in the prehistoric drama One Million Years B.C.
Although Welch had just a few lines of dialogue in B.C, images of her memorable appearance in a fur-skinned bikini made her a bestselling pinup that transformed her into a global sex symbol.
