Jane Birkin has passed away

Retired actress and singer Jane Birkin passed away on July 16, 2023. She was 76 years old. In here memory, here's a gallery of photos she posed for at her height of fame during the 1960s and 1970s.

Rumor has it that Jane Birkin didn't wear shoes until she was 27 years old. After taking a walk in the snow on her 27th birthday, she discovered the usefulness of footwear!

Happy birthday, Jane Birkin!

Born on December 14, 1946, English actress and model Jane Birkin was at the height of her fame during the 1960s and 1970s while she was living and working in Paris.

It's summer, it's hot. We should all do what Jane Birkin is getting ready to do: Lay around in a hammock, wearing just enough to not get arrested.

Circumstances may be such that isn't an option, though. Then, you can play with the kids in the pool. 

That way, they'll be tired, they'll go to sleep early... and you'll have some quiet time with the hubby (or to just lounge about in that aforementioned hammock)!

It's time for another visit with Jane Birkin. What is she getting up to?

 

Your guess is as good as mine.

I don't know what she's doing here, either...
