US actress Raquel Welch dies aged 82

The American actress Raquel Welch has died at the age of 82.

Her manager says her death followed a brief illness.

She won a Golden Globe for her performance in the 1974 production of
"The Three Musketeers" and was nominated for another Golden Globe in
1987.

She shot to fame in the late 1960s, starring in the film One Million
Years BC, a prehistoric drama in which she famously wore a deer-skin
bikini that turned her into one of the most popular models of the era.

In 2012 she told an audience at the Lincoln Center in New York that
she considered herself enormously privileged to have enjoyed a career
stretching back 6 decades.

IN: "I got to…."
OUT: "….how they did it".
