40 Intimate Photos Of Celebrities In Their Homes During The '70s

Just like us, celebrities of the '70s spent a lot of their time lounging at home. Some had extravagant mansions filled with riches while others had small, crumby apartments in downtown New York. These photos of famous faces give us a glimpse into both worlds. Take a look at the minimalist era of funky architecture, big hair, and groovy fashion choices that made-up vintage Hollywood.

40. The Jackson 5

How cute is this rare photo? The famous Jackson boys found a moment to get in a game of basketball in between all the world tours, sold-out concerts, and press junkets. This moment at their Hollywood Hills home in 1972 depicts Michael Jackson (catching the ball) and his brothers from left to right: Jermaine, Jackie, Tito, and Marlon. Check out those flared pants and that funky driveway roof!

39. Freddie Mercury

Never a stranger to short shorts, Freddie is seen here enjoying the sunshine of his 1975 home in Holland Park, London. He poses seductively as he sips his drink and flicks his long, luxurious hair for the camera. The Queen frontman sports a Ginzano tank and matching red bottoms as he lounges on his outdoor couch, checkered with a modern '70s design and framed with bamboo. Little did this young stud know, the next twenty years would turn him into a music legend.

38. Ali MacGraw

Actress and activist Ali MacGraw is seen here on March 8th, 1971, relaxing on a couch in a standard retro apartment. The radiator sits remarkably close to a door, indicating the small size of the room. Even the lamp matches the era, painted with a floral design. Ali looks stunning in her classic '70s get-up. From her straightened hair parted down the middle to her tall leather boots to her flowing patterned shirt, we can't get enough!

37. John Lennon and Yoko Ono

Ah, the couple that broke up the Beatles. At least, that's what hardcore fans say about John Lennon and Yoko Ono, seen here in their Ascot, England, home in 1971. They lounge as an interviewer asks questions, all while John throws cigarette butts into an ashtray on the floor. He sports a red and black shirt with a bright yellow star on the front, as well as a funky pair of embroidered jeans. Yoko examines her nails in a colorful top and a pair of killer heels.
