SHIRLEY MACLAINE
INSURANCE: $25 MILLION
BODY PART: EXTRATERRESTRIAL ABDUCTION

Nope, this not an episode of the X-Files. This is real life. American actress Shirley MacLaine took out a huge insurance policy to protect herself in case an extraterrestrial spacecraft flies into her location and beams her up. Yep, $25 million insurance policy in the event of alien abduction. Truth is stranger than fiction, indeed. Shirley MacLaine was born on April 24, 1934 in Shirley MacLean Beaty. McLean has received numerous honors, including an Academy Award, two British Academy Film Awards, five Golden Globes and a Primetime Emmy Award.

Shirley, who made her Hollywood debut in the 1955 Alfred Hitchcock film The Trouble with Harry— for which she credits her first Golden Globe award—has always been a believer of aliens. In various interviews, she often described encounters with the third kind in several places, including Washington DC and New Mexico. Apart from aliens and UFOs, the critically-acclaimed actress is also passionate about New Age spirituality.
