“Dallas” star Charlene Tilton was a 1980s sex symbol, but the 64-year-old said she never felt “beautiful” when she was in the spotlight.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“I had no idea how beautiful I was,” Tilton told People magazine in an interview published Thursday. “I look back at pictures now and go, ‘I really was all that and a bag of chips!’ I really was pretty. But, back then, I didn’t get it.”<\/p>\n

Tilton appeared on hundreds of magazine covers at the height of her fame playing J.R. Ewing\u2019s (Larry Hagman)<\/a> conniving niece Lucy.<\/p>\n

The actress, now starring in the faith-based romance “Heaven Sent” said she couldn\u2019t help comparing herself to bombshells like\u00a0Farrah Fawcett<\/a>,\u00a0Loni Anderson and\u00a0Suzanne Somers at the time.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“There were all kinds of beautiful women in Hollywood. I didn’t think I was anything special,” she told People, adding that she thought supermodel Iman was the “epitome” of beauty.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“I just remember wishing I looked like\u00a0Iman, the model <\/a>and\u00a0David Bowie’s wife,” she recalled. “She just has the most gorgeous bone structure and skin color and is tall and gorgeous. To me, she was the epitome of beauty. I was short, and when I gained five pounds, you could see it. And, believe me, it was mentioned in the press.”<\/p>\n

“I’m curvy. I’m not tall and thin. I’m not elegant, I’m spunky,” she said, adding that she always wanted to be a character actress. She now gets to do that in her 60s with the movies she\u2019s made over the last few years, like “A Welcome Home Christmas”<\/a> and “Starting up Love.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

She said she\u2019s “comfortable and content” with her life in Nashville<\/a>, where she lives near her daughter, country singer Cherish Lee, and her two grandsons.<\/p>\n

“The older I get, I’ve learned to be more present in the day to day,” she said. “When I was on Dallas, it was such a whirlwind. At my age now, I’m more present. I don’t feel the need to take every job, but I do make myself say yes to most things because I believe in saying yes and trying new things and having opportunities.<\/p>\n
