Regardless Lena was a beautiful inside & out not only that he was trailblazer for all that came after her many year later & even those today. Such A Classy Lady.
Lena looks like she is really having fun with this. OMG, she looks so beautiful.
Notice how she only shook hands with the men on the panel, but kissed the women. She was very astute in doing that, aware of the climate of race relations in the 1950s, which THANK GOD have improved since then. Lena did not want to upset any sponsors.
This was very enjoyable. Thanks so much for posting it.
@nickelwindow53 This episode aired wherever the network aired. It was up to the viewer (just as it is today) on whether or not he/she watched it. If they turned it off, because it was Lena, that was their loss.
R.I.P (1917-2010)Ms Lena Horne.......What a life this elegant woman of grace lived!! May you rest peacefully knowing your work & labor here on this earth will never be forgotten!
Ms. Lena, as Mr. Daly would say, seemed to be having a ball, especially at the end when she says goodnight to the panel. Love the always diplomatic Ms. Francis describing her as "the-devastatingly-beautiful." Always a class act!!
Whenever I hear Lena Horne's name I immediately think of Red Foxx XD

If you can look that beautiful in grainy black and white, what must she have looked like in color?

This was 1958 how did a black woman get on a primetime show like this? I bet they didnt air this episode in the South.

Yup. As you know, she could sing a little, too. Especially in stormy weather like we have here in Los Angeles this afternoon.

Strangely, my favorite part of Lena Horne's impeccable facial structure was her nose. And the most beautiful eyes. She was SO gorgeous!

She was allowed to kiss the women on the cheek, but shake hands with the men. Crazy racism back then.

I thought it was charming that Lena Horne kissed Dorothy and Arlene. Much nicer than the insincere air kisses that some celebrities use today.

One of the most beautiful faces AND figures in entertainment history.
Have no idea what mrspatrickcampbell was thinking??
Although, the original Mrs. Patrick Campbell was a great actress and beauty too.

Lena had those fatass wall-to-wall hips even way back then!
Is Lena still angry?
mrspatrickcampbell 3 years ago
Yeah, she is ANGRY! Lena wanted to be an actress not a singer -- you see it very clearly in her What's My Line appearances!
