"...and always too soon. Right, girls?" You are SO right, Miss Lilly. ;)

What a comedic genius. We still love you, Miss Madeline.

As a mom and nerd, I must sing or reference this song at least once a week....

@Argyle3Mr, Mel Brooks said that MK auditioned using a song with "Garbage" in it. He also said that he asked MK to show him her legs. MK said "So, you're that kind of guy." MB said no, he didn't fool around, he was happily married. MK, still nervous, asked him why he has to see her legs. MB explained he knew she could do Dietrich but that she had to have the legs, she'd be straddling a chair, etc. So MK shows him her legs, but she says he can't touch. :b

Thank you so much for sharing!!! Please, if you could, please post more Kahn. I believe she has another appearance/segment in the telethon. Corbis has a 1986 Comic Relief photo of her in a different costume. Thank so much again! :)

@MrMbell2 Oh, yeah... and the answer to your question could have been easily Googled. Why put us to work for what could've taken you 30 seconds to find out? Yet you wait six months, then chew me out? What a world.

[MrCrazypython]

IT'S TWUE.

@MrMbell2 I got you. 'playfully facetious' wasn't in the bounds of your lexicon, and 'immature' was the next closest option. (I look forward to hearing from you in six months)
