Congratulations, Carol Channing! You're not dead yet!
"Are you shhh-ure?"
Well, Miss Channing, if you can survive Skidoo, you're probably damn near indestructible.
"Raaaaaaaasssshhhhh-berries!"
We couldn't have said it better ourselves.
So, besides getting down and funky, what will you do to celebrate?
"Oh! Well, firssshht, I'm going to pick out hatshh with my dear friend, Halshhton!"
"Then, I'm going to take a roll with that marveloush Shteeve Reevesh!
He looksh sho darling in his shandalsh!"
"Then I'll trade shome fashion tipsh with my fansh! The gaysh are sho good at that!"
We think that's just swell, Miss Channing. Anything else you'd like to say?
"Raaaaaaaasssshhhhh-berries!"

Her hair and makeup gay from photo 2 should be banned from the industry for life. Or at least taught how to use spirit gum correctly. And what's with that color on the nose?
ReplyDeleteGod love her!
ReplyDeleteAnd fantastic dental work as well!
Goodnesh!
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday to her....but I do say, it's a bit much to see this early in the morning.
A reminder, and a welcome one, that for a little while longer, at least, some great ones still walk among us...
ReplyDeleteUnique, simply unique...
ReplyDeleteI saw her in SF about 7 years ago
ReplyDeleteA one woman show kind of affair
I went thinking she would be some kind of camp joke but she was really great and put on a very entertaining show
She is such a freak of nature. LOVE HER!
