We at Dolores Delargo Towers are very sad to hear the news that house favourites, the kitschiest-of-the-kitsch cabaret artistes, The Kessler Twins have taken their last perfectly-synchronised shimmy up the glittering stairway to Fabulon, aged 89.
They simply oozed camp - as these examples prove!
Madame Arcati and I have practised all their routines, of course, but we still can't quite get the timing right...
...by way of a finale, here's the routine that kicked off our obsession with them!
RIP, girls. This truly is the end of an era...
+ il shock !
ReplyDeleteSono stati intervistati quest’anno e sembrano aver ottenuto buoni risultati. :(
Inseparabili anche nella morte.
Così bella e talentuosa, le sorelle Kessler sono stati un dono per l’Italia, l’Europa e il mondo.
It appears they chose their own peaceful method of death - synchronised, to the end. The world's a duller place without them. Jx
DeleteThe Kessler sisters, my grandfather enjoyed their records and tv appearances.
ReplyDeleteI don’t know what to think of their death, as I have mixed feelings.
If one was well and the other close to death it makes no sense.
One goes on living because in a way your loved one still lives and it seems they would want you to live your life to the full, I would in this situation.
If both were very ill I can fully understand that.
Very apparent one sister couldn’t live without the other sister in their life.
Both Kessler ladies were so beautiful and talented even in old age.
I pretty sure they’re entertaining all in the Heavens as their legacy entertains us. :)

Who knows the real reason they chose to end it as they did - together. I do, however, agree with the "right to choose" if the prognosis is dire... Jx
DeleteThey were pure joy but they had to go some time at least they went together.
ReplyDeleteIf we got hold of their drag perhaps we could form a tribute act.
We'd look more like the Roly-Polys. Jx
