In a recent interview, Barbara Eden, the star of I Dream of Jeannie, revealed some secrets about her personal life! The singer, who met Elvis Presley when she was making Flaming Star finally talked about what the late singer had meant to her.

The 92-year-old actress talked about her enduring legacy from her role as a genie named Jeannie in her hit show. The show is part of television history. It depicted Larry Hagman as an astronaut who finds a bottle with Eden’s Jeannie as a genie inside. The two end up falling in love.

Now 50 years after the show originally aired, Eden shares that people still come up to her and share their love for the series. They also ask the actress to do Jeannie’s iconic blink and nod.

“Oh, all the time,” Eden said, laughing when asked if the request was made often. She shared that the original motion the producers wanted required a little less energy, but she thought her character needed a more distinct motion. “It was supposed to have been just the blink and I added the arms,” she said.

The wink became a trademark for Jeannie and for Eden as well. Her costume at the time was a two-piece that featured billowing pants and a crop top. Now Eden looks back at how everyone was shocked at the ensemble and now days it would not even cause people to blink. She said, “it’s nothing” by what is common on television and movies today and she had never been concerned about it.
