Oscar-nominated 80s star who dated a former Sexiest Man Alive is unrecognizable while shopping at California market

She is the quirky and talented beauty who has been entertaining audiences with her films and music since the age of fifteen, when she starred in a famous 1989 Christmas comedy opposite Chevy Chase.

At the age of seventeen, she met an actor, who would become People Magazine’s Sexiest Man Alive in 1995 and 2000, and began a four-year relationship.

Her unusual 1990s characters have included a troubled teen who becomes a prostitute, the girlfriend of a serial killer and a victim of a psychotic criminal who targets her family during a summer vacation.

The latter role earned her an Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actress in 1992.

Do you know who she is?

Shoppers at Calabasas’ upscale Erewhon Market on Monday failed to recognize the still-youthful-looking actress, who wore a black hat pulled low over her famous face

The 51-year-old showed off her fit and trim figure with tight camouflage nylon cycling shorts, a gray T-shirt decorated with an image of American pop artist Patrick Nagel and a black baseball cap with a parody of the North Face logo.

If you guessed Juliette Lewis, you’re right!

Shoppers at the chic Erewhon Market in Calabasas on Monday did not recognize the still youthful-looking actress, who wore a black hat pulled low over her famous face.

The 51-year-old showed off her fit figure with tight camouflage nylon cycling shorts, a gray T-shirt with an image of American pop artist Patrick Nagel and a black baseball cap with a parody of the North Face logo.

She looked like she had visited one of the nearby hiking trails in Malibu and had been sweating quite a bit.

As these exclusive photos from DailyMail.com show, the makeup-free actress was surprised but somewhat amused when she was recognized in the parking lot.

In 2003, she quit acting for almost a decade to pursue her other passions, such as music

The singer and songwriter toured with her rock band Juliette and the Licks, first at Johnny Depp’s Viper Room and later across the country and beyond.

“This hat belongs to my friend [N8 NO FACE brand],’ she said as she pulled it out and held it up laughing, ‘funny, right?’

While other celebrities were busy sending signals by driving electric vehicles, Juliette packed her bags in a blue classic Dodge ‘muscle’ car, smiling as she drove away.

Lewis has a quiet confidence in her, which has led her to take risks.

Their romance lasted four years, and according to Pitt, 60, he looked back on their relationship with fondness.

After starring in TV sitcoms such as The Wonder Years and the Showtime Series Home Fires, she won the role of Andrea Griswold in the film National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation.

A slapstick and campy classic, she later said, “I didn’t know this was a movie that plays every year. It’s very special and Chevy Chase was very kind to me.”

Before Jennifer Aniston, before Angelina Jolie, it was Juliette who captured his heart. Their romance lasted four years, and according to Pitt, 60, it is remembered with great fondness.

“It was one of the best relationships I ever had,” he once said Vanity fair.

“The problem is that we grow up believing that love conquers all, and that’s not the case, is it?”
