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."

Betty White Bread
It's Betty White Day again - the lady herself, one of our icons and eminent Patron Saints blows out 98 candles on her cake today!
She really IS the best...
Betty Marion White Ludden (née White; born 17th January 1922)
[PS "Diva season" is definitely upon us! Also born on this day were Eartha Kitt, Dalida, Moira Shearer and - erm - Shari Lewis. Yesterday it was Susan Sontag, Sade, Marilyn Horne and Miss Merman; tomorrow Jane Horrocks; and Sunday it's Tippi Hedren and Dolly Parton!]

ReplyDeleteLamb Chop - who "came to a drug-fuelled end at a Los Angeles pool party", allegedly - according to Miss Hope Springs, anyhow :-)
