Golden Girls And Guys: “Seasoned” (AKA, Older) Celebrities Before They Were Big Stars

Robert Guillaume

Good ‘ol Robert Guillaume, better known to folks in St. Louis as Robert Williams, was, as you can see from the photo above, in the United States Army before he decided to foray into acting and blow up big time. And once he took on the role of Benson on the show Soap and the spinoff, Benson, blow up is just what he did. And while that role garnered him much acclaim and many awards, including two Emmys, he gained the hearts of many children everywhere when he voiced crazy but lovable Rafiki in The Lion King. And as you can see below, at 85, he’s still looking good!
