BETTY GRABLE
(Elizabeth Ruth Grable)
-1916-1973-
‘I have got two reasons for success and
I’m standing on both of them.’
‘The practice of putting women on pedestals began to die out when
it was discovered that they could give orders better from there.’
‘It’s loud, it’s cheap, it’s gaudy. It’s like
everything I’ve ever done – I LOVE IT!!’
‘When I used to be a little kid I used to go every Saturday afternoon
to the picture show close up to the screen my life wasso serene
I lived through every scene with my movie queen.. Betty Grable
Three hundred howlin’ kids were always pack the house
But they just came for Donald Duck and Mickey Mouse
But there would be a world of fantasy wrapped in the melody
She sang and danced for me.. Betty Grable.’
