Capturing a moment from the golden age of television and the golden age of pop-rock, hit-recording artist Tommy Roe presented Barbara Eden, television’s “Jeannie,” with the Timeless Beauty Award, bestowed by the Hollywood Beauty Awards. The 1st Hollywood Beauty Awards were held Feb. 15, at the historic Fonda Theatre in Hollywood.
Roe said he was honored to be a part of the 1st Hollywood Beauty Awards, but even more honored to be a part of presenting the Timeless Beauty Award to television icon Barbara Eden, an award he says she especially deserved.
“Barbara is well known as Jeannie on the hit TV series ‘I Dream of Jeannie,’ but her body of work spans decades and is well documented as one of the most illustrious careers in Hollywood. She has also won many prestigious awards and her generosity when it comes to her charity work is second to none,” said Roe. “My wife, Josette, and I have known Barbara and her husband Jon for years, and consider their friendship very special.”
Roe is the singer-songwriter behind genre-defining hits “Sheila” (1962) and “Dizzy” (1969), both of which are certified at more than 2 million airplays. In addition to “Sheila” and “Dizzy”, Roe helped define the 1960s music scene with a string of Billboard Top 10 hits, including “Everybody”, “Sweet Pea” and “Hurray for Hazel”. Eden was the star of the hit television series “I Dream of Jeannie” which aired for five seasons from 1965 to 1970, and in Flaming Star (1960) alongside Elvis Presley.
The 1st Hollywood Beauty Awards were presented by LATF, a daily news site and monthly online magazine covering entertainment and lifestyle content worldwide. Information about the HBAs is available on the LATF Web site, www.latfusa.com.
