It's interesting to look back here at the star quality Mae West had. Although it may sometimes appear she is over the top, it doesn't come off as forced like some of our present icons. She was believable in a movie star way that was arguable sometimes camp and yet pure artistic genius. My hope is that she will never be forgotten. Time of course will tell.

@soulsurvivor2001 - What a GREAT story, LOVE IT! Mae should have been president!

Aint nobody allowed to lay theIr stupid nasty rules on Mae and HER friends! Not in HER 'effing building! I think the landlords whole sick concept pissed Mae off and she acted more on principle against such a gross insult to humanity, regardless of the fact that Williams Jones must have been silky heaven and thunder!

My Oh MY! (sigh).

But i think she'd have done same if he'd had no teeth & one eye.;)

@IdaSputum Ida, Mae was seeing a black boxer named William Jones. When the landlords of her building told her blacks weren't allowed on the property she BOUGHT the building. How GREAT does one have to be in the sack to have someone BUY A BUILDING so you can come and go as you please?

Dig that spunky guitar -- the 1st & top cougar of all time.

@soulsurvivor2001 Whats the problem with Mae West? The song clearly says "Im an occidental woman..."

@soulsurvivor2001 I also like the scene in which Harpo, surrounded by africanamerican people, play a beautiful melody

@soulsurvivor2001 I love the Marx brothers! Such sarcastic and sharpie comments about the society of their times!
