"Too brilliant for America. She won over the world quicker than a bomb or crucifix over Christ Jesus. Eartha Kitt is Goddess/God above idealistic culture".
Eartha a class act that kept her beauty even up to the graceful age of 81. A lodestar for me the chawbacon of her days even up to today. Famous not just for being a touchstone in dance and style with grace but; videlicet, acting, outspokenness, a natural gift in leadership, strong drive with a conciliatory personality and look. Kickshaw of the world with an ineffable presence that made many gock and stare filled with joy inside. Ertha will be remembered, missed and is un-replaceable!
oh, eartha!!! the world will not soon forget you were here. you sure brought it and served it, honey!!! even though your own nation wasn't ready for you, you helped us get ready. thank you for the gift of your life and legacy. rest in power. wake up in glory. r-r-r-raaahhhh...
It cannot possibly get any better than this. For me this is definitely among the top 10 most amazing performances of anything in the history of the Universe. ;)
In some ways I think this one's superior to that, or at least a whole lot more fun because of the way her performance style and brassiness evolved and deepened between that one and this one. This performance is *marvelously* over the top and just so heedlessly fun. This one's all diva showmanship, and one can see both the legacy wrought by Catwoman and the persona that created Yzma. A remarkable imprint on pop culture. RIP.
JGerard56: Actually, I still have many doubts about that... Nobody but she can know what the truth is. But her face is really spread, and it's obviously! Only make up cannot make such image.
Eartha has a video concert from the early 90s in Germany (I'm lost for the name, but it's something like "The Most Interesting Woman in the World." It's fierce and I'm recommend looking it up on Amazon. Some selections are here on youtube.
Actually, Miss Kitt has never had plastic surgery and is vocally against it. I remember reading that she can't understand why women would want to hide natural aging. My guess is that it's the lighting and make up in this video that gives her the "plastic face."
I'm shocked this woman hasn't sang a bond song yet. Or has she? If she hasn't...wow. Her and Shirley Bassey should get together, talk about an ear youknowwhatgasm lol
No, Miss Kitt has never sang a Bond song (although Miss Turner has). That is a great question. My understanding is that Miss Kitt is a much nicer person than Miss Bassey.
Eartha is beyond. She's electric. She's magnificent. Without choreagraphy she still moves like she's on the prowl. She's a true legendary DIVA in the highest degree. Jimmy James
What's unbelievable? That he was elected or that Eartha's performing at the White House, almost 20 years after LBJ blacklisted her for speaking out against the Vietnam War?
She encourages my evil.
