90s Talk Show Host Unrecognizable Now and Furious Over Instagram’s Verification Denial

Once a popular daytime TV host in the 80s and 90s, Sally Lowenthal, also known as Sally Jessy Raphael, is now having trouble with people recognizing her.

The former talk show host recently posted on Instagram that the social media company refused to verify her account, even though she provided proof of her identity.

“So, Instagram doesn’t want to give me my blue check – no matter what proof I send them,” the 89-year-old wrote next to a huge blue checkmark. “AND there’s a fake account called ‘realsallyjr’, and that’s NOT ME! Help me let Instagram know so we can fix this.”

Raphael started hosting *The Sally Jessy Raphael Show*, later called *Sally*, in October 1983 and continued until May 2002. Her show was one of the first to involve audience participation and helped pave the way for other female hosts, including Oprah, whose show started three years later.

Over 20 seasons, Raphael interviewed many celebrities but always said Audrey Hepburn was her favorite.

“I was so awestruck, I could hardly ask a question. Everything she did, I admired. Everything she had done in her life I found to be exemplary,” she told the Daily Mail.

Throughout her career and even after she retired, Sally Jessy Raphael has had a distinctive look that makes her easily recognizable.

When she started filming *The Sally Jessy Raphael Show*, she realized she couldn’t read the teleprompter.

She said, “When we started, I looked at the teleprompter and said, ‘I can’t read that! I’m going blind!’”

While looking for a new pair of glasses, Raphael saw an ad offering an eye test, glasses, and a Pap smear. Despite how strange the ad seemed, she decided to make an appointment.

During the appointment she was told she would need a more expensive pair of glasses, but unfortunately they only color they had was red.

“You got it,” Raphael said.

Although she didn’t anticipate the trouble she’d face from the producers of her show.

“I had to fight to have the glasses. Producers tried to change them. Those shadowy figures objected to everything.”

She has since accumulated over 200 pairs of red glasses.

As of August 2, Raphael currently has less than 650 followers on Instagram, but even though her numbers might not match those of other talk show hosts, her fans are just as loud if not louder with their support.

“The Icon, the Legend of daytime TV, Ms. Sally Jessy Raphael needs her Blue Check Mark ? “

“That’s pretty crazy that someone as famous as you are is having trouble with being recognized. I’m trying to understand what the issue is though”

“We should flood your feed with blue hearts it’s so much better than a blue checkmark”

I remember watching Sally on TV! Do you? Let us know in the comments.

“Like two peas in a pod!” This is what Richard Gere’s firstborn looks like, who is in no way different from his father

In 2019, Richard Gere and his wife Alejandra Silva became parents to a boy. A year later a second son was born. Although these are the couple’s first children together, they both bring experience from previous marriages into raising them.

Gere has a 22-year-old son named Homer James Jigme from his previous marriage to Carey Lowell. Richard Gere rose to fame through outstanding performances in films such as “Pretty Woman” and “An Officer and a Gentleman.”

Before his marriage to Silva, he was married to model and actress Cindy Crawford, with whom he was frequently seen on the red carpet and on magazine covers, before they separated after four years.

Seven years after this divorce, Gere married Carey Lowell and had his son Homer with her. During his relationship with Crawford, he had no desire to have children, unlike with Lowell. Homer was already known to the public at an early age due to his prominent parents.

When Gere’s marriage to Lowell ended in 2003, the family’s private life was heavily discussed in the media. Homer, who has a half-sister from his mother’s previous marriage, became big brother last year to another half-brother born to Alejandra Silva.

Homer himself leads a rather withdrawn life in New York and inherits not only his father’s charm, but also his attractive looks. Although he normally avoids publicity, he made a few public appearances with both parents as a child.
