Nice photo. Great figure.
I thought she got prettier in the 60’s in films like ‘Midnight Lace’, ‘Move Over Darling’, ‘Pillow talk’, etc.

By the way, how did you get the solid blue background on your bio page? Very nice page.
I tried it with mine, lots of trouble..had to give that part up.

I wish I could figure out how she got her up-dos to look so good. I guess if you have a professional stylist, it’s not impossible. LOL!

Poor Debbie-—her last and final husband also stole her blind-—she went into the casino business with him. He even stole everything she owned BEFORE she married him...... and had a mistress.

A judge awarded her $2 million but the creep never paid up. She was forced to sell some of her fabled costumes b/c he refused to pay the judgement.

Thanks! Great vid.

She had a lovely, unique, very distinctive voice.
There was no way you could ever mistake her voice for another.

My fav of her non romantic comedy roles is ‘Midnight Lace’ with Rex Harrison.

I liked all her romantic comedies. I especially liked ‘Move Over Darling’.
She took this role when Marilyn Monroe was unable to keep filming. (With Monroe, the film was entitled, ‘Something’s Gotta Give’) Wonder what it would have been like with Monroe..

I also liked ‘That Touch of Mink’ with Cary Grant.

Doris has stated that Rock was a very nice guy..and she never knew he was gay while making movies with him.

I tend to believe her. In those days the gays were locked tightly in their closets. Fear of exposure was great. Exposure would put a rapid end to their careers.

I’d read about Kirk being cheated, too.
Amazing how many stars were swindled out of their fortunes by lawyers, accountants, spouses etc.

Looks like that Manson monster will live forever.
They should have hung him.

I hadn’t read that. You mean ANOTHER beside Karl robbed her blind?
She seems so intelligent..looks like she would have learned.
Shame. She seems like such a nice woman.

Charlie’s Angel Kate Jackson has said then-hubby Andrew Stevens (son of actress Stella Stevens) emptied out her bank account.

Robert Osborne’s audio interview with Doris Day, celebrating her 90th birthday.

She sounds all there to me

Doris was much prettier as aged from the 50's into the 60's. What a difference.

Thanks! I didn’t know about the phone interview.
She really sounds good- very sharp and ‘with it’.

Here’s a sample from her new album ‘My Heart’ that she made just a year or so ago. Amazing for a person approaching 90!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jykW6d6ATc0

All kinds of stories were circulated in her later years about her being a recluse, bag lady, senile, etc.
Anything to sell a story...and she quit Hollywood at a fairly young age while still marketable. Just quite it all. Wouldn’t play their game.
They just couldn’t bear that.
They abused and vilified her to no end.
