RIP, Doris Day (born Doris Mary Ann Kappelhoff, 3rd April 1922 – 13th May 2019)
CAMP: "A cornucopia of frivolity, incongruity, theatricality, and humour." "A deadly, winking, sniggering, snuggling, chromium-plated, scent-impregnated, luminous, quivering, giggling, fruit-flavored, mincing, ice-covered heap of mother love." "The lie that tells the truth." "Ostentatious, exaggerated, affected, theatrical; effeminate or homosexual; pertaining to or characteristic of homosexuals."
Oh no...I'll be in black for awhile.

Deletemy fave movie of hers: "send me no flowers"
ReplyDeleteShe and Rock Hudson were the on-screen "dream team"... Jx
DeleteA sad loss
ReplyDeleteRemarkably, every show on every radio station we usually listen to - and that includes BBC radios 2, 3 and 6 - played at least one of her songs. It shows how vast was her repertoire, and how many "boundaries" she crossed... Jx
