Bewitched child star is unrecognisable as she surprises Sunrise presenter on ... trends now
One of the most recognisable child stars from the late '60s made a surprise appearance at a pre-Oscars cabaret show in Hollywood earlier this month.
Erin Murphy, who played young Tabitha Stephens in the American sitcom Bewitched, joined singer and TV presenter Nelson Aspen on stage for his show 'Welcome Home' at the Gardenia club in Los Angeles on March 9.
