#5: Bette Davis
First Red Carpet: 1935
Last Red Carpet: 1989
In 1935, Bette Davis made her first major red carpet appearance at the Academy Awards, already gaining a reputation as one of Hollywood’s most formidable rising stars. Known for her striking gaze and fierce determination, she carried herself with the poise of someone destined for longevity in the industry.

Her final red carpet in 1989 at the Cannes Film Festival came after decades as an icon of both talent and resilience. Though visibly frail, her sharp wit and commanding presence remained intact, a final public reminder of the indelible mark she left on film history.
