Thanks for posting this wonderful video. Pearl did have a costarring role in the movie version of Carmen Jones. (There's also a video somewhere on YouTube where she's singing with Sarah Vaughn and Ella Fitzgerald.) Again thank you for posting this.
I am presently writing a screenplay about Pearl Bailey. In fact, I have written several drafts. Pearl's story is just so amazing and captivating. I know one day someone from Hollywood or maybe Queen Latifah will want to tell her story.
Amazing that you said Queen Latifah , I watched the clip before i started to read the comments and I thought Movie, life story-- "Queen Latifah " as Pearl Bailey. Wow!
wow thank-you johnxxx20000 lets face pearl was just as flawless and dorothy and lena (i love them too) but we know why she wasn't carmen jones...love your video post...can we be friends?
I was little tired the day I wrote that can't you tell by my english. Anywho, I was trying to say Dana Owens should play Pearl Bailey. Sorry about that misunderstanding.
Nobody in Hollywood sees the potential of a Pearl Bailey biopic, with her portrayed by Queen Latifah? I wish I had several million to float the project myself.
You know what DMMeltzer, before I read your comment, I was looking at Pearl Bailey pictues and I just couldn't help but thinking of Queen Latifah to play this beautiful woman. I would go to the movies to see. I think she can protraye her life on the silver screen!
Not only could she sing, but she was beautiful to boot!!!!!
