Suzanne Somers thought her career was over after she was fired from her hit sitcom "Three’s Company" in 1981 over a salary dispute. Little did she know — her career was just beginning.

TV’s sweetheart tells Closer after her revolutionary ThighMaster release in 1992, it's still a hit with her!

Twenty-one years after the ThighMaster’s launch, the 67-year-old says, “I do [use it] still, because I can travel with it."

But becoming the face of ThighMaster wasn’t exactly easy. “I thought it was going to ruin my career,” she explains. But it did just the opposite. “It revived [my career], especially when all the comedians told jokes about it,” adding that the launch was actually the pivotal point in her career. “It sold over 10 million at a time when I couldn’t get a job,” she tells the mag. “My thighs still look good!” Suzanne gushes.
