Dukes of Hazzard’s Catherine Bach, 70, Steps Out for Rare Appearance in L.A. [Photos]

Dukes of Hazzard actress Catherine Bach made a rare public appearance in Los Angeles on Tuesday, November 19. She went cool and casual for the outing in an all black outfit.

The ‘70s icon wore a black long-sleeve top with black leggings and black sandals for the outing. She wore a black crossbody bag along with a pair of black sunglasses that were attached to the neckline of her shirt. Catherine went to grab some pet food from the store Just Food for Dogs during the appearance.

The Hustle actress turned 70 in March, and she revealed that she still puts on her famous daisy dukes shorts from The Dukes of Hazzard from time to time. She teased where fans would be able to see her wearing the famous clothing item.

“Only if you come to my house and watch me garden,” she told Fox News Digital in August while attending John Schneider and Dee Dee Sorvino‘s wedding celebration at the Hollywood Museum in Los Angeles. “Or at the beach. I’ll be honest, at the beach.”

While at the event celebrating costar John’s marriage, Catherine was asked about whether or not she was interested in doing a Dukes of Hazzard reboot.

“Well, you know, shows are a mystical thing at best, because you never know what’s going to work and how things are going to click,” she responded. “And you have to have a good writer. It can’t just be writing on an idea.”

“You have to execute that idea. So, yeah, if everything comes together. Of course,” the Ohio native added. “I’m still here, the guys are still here. It would be great, but I don’t know.”

The comments came a few years after she said she was initially hesitant about taking on the role of Daisy Duke.

“Here’s the thing – they’ve been looking for a year for that part,” she told Fox News Digital in 2019. “They went to New York, Chicago, Atlanta, Georgia and California. Nothing. So I said, ‘That’s very nice of you to think of me, and I know you’re doing this as a favor to my husband, but you don’t have to.’ I just didn’t think I had a chance. But he goes, ‘I really want you to come in.’”

“A few weeks later, I was at some little Italian restaurant in Beverly Hills with my girlfriend, who directed my one-act play … I tell her, ‘I do have this interview that I’m supposed to go, but I’m not. … You know part Daisy Duke for Warner Bros.? They want me to come in, but I know I’m not going to get it.’ . . . She goes, ‘It’s Warner Bros. You never know who you’re going to meet on the way in and on the way out. Just go!’ So I went,” she continued.

Catherine was blown away by the reaction she received at her first audition, ultimately leading her to snag the coveted role.

“After I did my reading during the audition, there was total silence. I thought, ‘Oh no, they didn’t like what I did.’ Then everyone, we’re talking about 30 people, got up and started clapping,” she remembered. “They just connected with my vision of how this part should be played. Two weeks later, I was on a plane to Georgia.”
