Jane Fonda

Born into Hollywood royalty,

A liberal film goddess and activist whose views have been the bane of the right,

Immortalised as a sex symbol as space siren Barbarella,

Her politics and causes giving everyone a fright.

Denounced by America\'s Vietnam veterans as \'Hanoi Jane,\'

Charmed by Mr Redford, Mr Sutherland and challenged by Mr Voight and others on screen,

A formidable feminist, icon and talent in Tinseltown,

The greatest actress of her generation ever seen.

Ms Fonda re-invented herself in the keep fit craze of the 80\'s,

As fitness guru, Jane Fonda\'s Workout video and book were the best selling of all time,

Marriages to Roger Vadim, Tom Hayden and Ted Turner brought moments of happiness but did not survive,

Through movies and her life she challenged herself, an incredible tour de force difficult to define.

A grandmother and Hollywood\'s leading Octogenarian at 81,

Paris Fashion Week 2017, aged 79 she modelled on the catwalk to rapturous applause and acclaim,

She continues to push the boundaries for all things possible for her age, generation and in life,

There will never be a phenomenal woman like Jane Fonda ever again.
