[cyrilmaude]

To the incomparable Mae West...then to Mae let us sing, that Mae is excelling; she excels each mortal thing upon the dull earth dwelling: To her let us garlands bring.

[airliebird58]

Mae has always been a bit of a heroine of mine. Lovely video, thank you :D

[basilnelson]

You may be pleased to hear that I will be releasing my second tribute to Mae West on February 9th.

[MegaBrand101]

@xxblackpeltxx She never had kids so how can she be anyone's "great great great g-ma"?

[iamnormal1]

Thank you very much. Mae West had it all.

[twdeck]

Mae's writing was so well received in her own movies that MGM approached her to pen dialogue for their resident blonde bombshell...Jean Harlow! Wisely Mae turned down the offer.

[RMS1103]

Now, there was a star who had something completely her own..Great tribute to the incomparible Mae.

[mswest1]

I've been a fan of Mae's for over 25 yrs, she was before my time and ahead of hers....This is a great tribute to an original and one and only star....Great job....Thanks for sharing..Bill

Mae West was great! She was so beautiful and seductive, yet so sassy. I love her! What is the music from? I really enjoy it! Thanks BAZ

[basilnelson]

There are two pieces of music here. The video begins with 'Serenade in Blue' and finishes with 'That Old Sweet Roll (Hi-de-ho)'

[mykoreanclass]

Where can I find this version of Serenade in Blue?? Who is the composer here??  It sounds nothing like Glenn Miller, it's much better!

[basilnelson]

This version of 'Serenade in Blue' is played by Bert Kaempfert and his Orchestra.

[Palomablanca2008]

I just love Mae West in the old movies, the way she could deliver a sentence and make it sound oh so naughty!! Thanks for posting, I have subscribed to your beautiful channel! Paloma (5*)

[GEVMM]

Mae West was the pionner of talking about sex in cinema and that's great. Love Mae West

[vt32943]

Yes my dear friend, that's the one!

[vt32943]

actress, screenwriter, comedian, and sex symbol. One of the most controversial stars of her day. More than a few acting careers were lauched on the basis of an unforgettable costume and the one that comes to mind is from the 1933 film, I'm No Angel. Baz, do you know which one that is? Fondly, Hedda

"Ah like gowns that are tight enough to show I'm a woman and loose enough to show I'm a lady".............Mae West.

[basilnelson]

It must be the dress covered in 'flowery' stars featured on the film posters. The full-frontal view of the dress is quite suggestive. Am I right?

[sammybowen111]

i adore mae, thankyou for this tribute!

[joeocho88]

She was a grown-up flapper!I think she represented GLAMOUR and she was soooo OUTRAGEOUS! She and W.C. Fields were certainly as act! My grandmother used to play the piano for silent films afer Opening Night (When they usually had an orchestra) at the cinema in New Orleans. She met a few of the old stars. WOW!

[paulotomaso]

mae west is the original gangsta. she did bling and fur and many escorts way before the dawn of hip-hop or music videos. such a comedic genius and terrific movie star. get you some of that ole sweet role

[valadga]

well peel me a grape honey!

[globehunter2]

In later years Mae West even in her 80,s still

squeezed her form into sexy dress,s!playing in

a Spoof of a movie,s with Muscle men and college

boys, she never said quits!! she turned old age

into a re-inforced Monument of timeless Seduction `

comical to some` but a serious matter to her.

Pierre Thankyou Baz

[globehunter2]

The Bonde BomB Shell* Mae West said things and did

things that most women would,nt dare`Actually she

did,nt care what you thought! she had a Sex appeal

that captavated male movie goers and women too!

she was a `Universal "Fashion" statement poured in

a dress, witty and humorous also.And she loved men

perhaps even more than her Diamonds.

Beautiful images
