Debbie Harry rose to fame in the '70s and '80s as the frontwoman of Blondie, and over five decades later, she still knows how to rock a red carpet.
The 80-year-old looked every bit the blonde bombshell she did in her heyday at the NYC premiere of Supergirl on Monday, June 22.
Debbie appears to have barely aged a day as she made a rare red carpet appearance alongside her ex and fellow bandmate Chris Stein.
The "Heart of Glass" singer looked stylish in a black, waist-cinching jumpsuit worn over a shimmery, semi-sheer green top, completing her look with a black purse and white-and-green platform sneakers.
Debbie accentuated her youthful look with a radiant complexion and wore her hair in loose waves that cascaded past her shoulders.
The singer will turn 81 on July 1, and ahead of her milestone 80th birthday last year, she opened up about the "pressure" to "look good," especially after finding success with Blondie, which she co-founded in 1974.
She confirmed that she had indulged in cosmetic surgery, which she has been open about in the past, and affirmed that it served as a confidence booster of sorts for her. "It's always been a tool for me," Debbie explained to Vanity Fair.
"It's not like I started having cosmetic surgery as a kid in school — I think nowadays a lot of girls are getting cosmetic surgery when they're 10, 11 years old. God bless if it improves their lives and they feel happy."
The "One Way or Another" hitmaker continued: "But as far as me having cosmetic surgery, it made me feel better about myself. Maybe it made me feel happy, or more confident."
She explained that she found such procedures a "necessary" evil to lengthen a female musician's tenure in the industry, at least at that point in her career. "It was just something that I felt necessary at the time."
"I wanted to work, and so much of women being attractive, and being a selling point, is clearly showbiz. If you're going to be in the business, be in it."
In her 2019 memoir, Face It, the "Heart of Glass" singer openly spoke about being pro-cosmetic surgery, writing: "I think it's the same as having a flu shot basically, another way of looking after yourself."
Saying she had a facelift for "business reasons," she added: "If it makes you feel better and look better and work better, that's what it's all about."
Debbie continued: "Getting older is hard on your looks. Like everybody else, I have good days and bad days and those, '[expletive], I hope nobody sees me today' days."
On all the coverage of her looks over the years, she even mused: "It's sometimes made me wonder if I've ever accomplished anything beyond my image."
