'I want to be alive'

Charo, whose real name is María del Rosario Pilar Martínez Molina Baeza - has always been open about her diet and fitness routine and credits exercise for helping her stay in such great shape.

The Fantasy Island star told Fox News Digital, "I want to be alert. I want to be alive. I drink water, good wine. I don't do drugs, and I do some exercise and I try to think positive."

She added, "But yeah, take care of yourself and exercise, exercise. Cut the gluten and the fried foods, exercise, no more sugar and apple pie... If we fight against time and if we do it in the right way, and God helps us, you feel healthier all the time."

The Cuchi, Cuchi! singer also believes that not smoking cigarettes and enjoying the outdoors help her maintain such youthful skin. "I have all of this on my side. But yes, vegetables, exercise. If you have to go (out) into the sun, I love Hawaii and the sunshine, then put (on) protection, but enjoy. Enjoy jumping into the water and swimming and have fun because nature is priceless."

However, Charo does indulge in dark chocolate now and again. "I like chocolate. I am completely addicted to dark chocolate. I don't drink coffee because if I drink coffee... you will have to (call) 911. Woo hoo! But dark chocolate, once in a while, it makes you happy."
