She would have been 68 years old at this time.

[JrG171]

@bvscfanatic No, she would have been 105 years old if she was still alive. She was born in 1906. So she's 69 at this time if this year was really 1975, knowing YouTube get the dates wrong anyways.

[bvscfanatic]

@JrG171 That's what I was saying. That she was 68 at the time of the video (in 1974). Not TODAY. I KNOW when she was born. I KNOW her history.

[JrG171]

@bvscfanatic Oh, I though this year was 1975! Oh, duh, I didn't read the title.

Thank you for this.

[koldusopera]

what a woman!

[JyonasanVolkov]

It is interesting that all of todays stars: Beyoncé, Lady GaGa, Grace Jones, &c. were inspired by beautiful ladies with enthusiasm & courage to break the standards. Lady GaGa was not just born with a passion to be free? She was born with the passion to be rebellious, as with these women [&, if I may say so, back then women who showed a single leg or an arm was considered a sin.]

BE GRATEFUL FOR WOMEN AS THESE! BE GRATEFUL FOR FREEDOM!
