Anyone who grew up in the 1980s likely spent just about every Friday night watching The Cosby Show. The Huxtable Family was just so lovable and relatable, and they had a knack for making us laugh all while tackling common trials and tribulations every family goes through.
Regardless of the unfortunate events that would later transpire with the show’s lead, Bill Cosby, it was a household staple during that decade that left its mark.
By far, the one who held the whole TV family crew together was Clair Huxtable, played by actress Phylicia Rashad. Clair truly had it all — she was beautiful, confident, sassy, smart, and had such a priceless wit about her.
Now 76 years old, Rashad was spotted in New York City on May 16 on the way to the 2025 Drama League Awards. While we don’t often see her in public, fans were blown away by just how stunning she looks at this stage of life.
As one person put it, Rashad is “simply beautiful.”
Another person who viewed the clip said, “Still classy and gorgeous ❤️,” and someone else added, “One of THE BEST TV moms ever! 🥰”
Many others also chimed in and used the word “still” to describe her, to which one fan so perfectly noted, “Clair hates the word STILL. 😊” HA!

Rashad is (still) going strong in her career, and most recently, she directed the play, Purpose, at the Helen Hayes Theater on Broadway.
But no matter how many years have passed since her ’80s sitcom days, she’ll always be the TV mom we know and love, who refused to take any s***.
Get ’em. Clair.
