3. Pet, circa 1967

C'mon, she was all of 35 years old there.

She still does a boatload of tours every years, and she's seen the younger side of her 60s. (I think she's actually 71.)

5. The photo you show

would have been air-brushed to make her look so good.

Simply go back and look at publicity photos of any entertainer and compare them to actual un-retouched candids if you can find any. The difference is astonishing. Another common trick (not sure if it's still used, what with botox) was to smear the camera lens with vaseline for close-ups. That's why a lot of movie close-up shots of aging female stars are always in such soft focus.
