Nancy McKeon – The Facts Of Life, born in 1966

Val Chmerkovskiy’s Dancing with the Stars partner in Season 27 is not the first The Facts of Life star to appear on the show. At 52, Nancy McKeon may be the oldest contestant this season but fans need not worry as she has always maintained an active lifestyle even as a stay-at-home mom. She does yoga and walks a great distance around her ranch to tend to her crops and animals. This must make lifting easy for her dancing partner.

Lucy Lawless – Xena: Warrior Princess, born in 1968

Lucy Lawless gained fame with her portrayal of the title character on Xena: Warrior Princess. We also know her as Lucretia from the series Spartacus: Blood and Sand and Spartacus: Gods of the Arena. The New Zealand-born actress who is 50 by the way, has managed to age so gracefully she makes us jealous. Her anti-aging secret may lie in a happy life filled with her job, love for her family, charity work, activism, etc.
