I am watching White Christmas and realizing, not for the first time, that some actresses from the 40s, 50s, 60s, had TEENY TINY WAISTS!
The thing about it is they weren’t anorexic, they were just incredibly skinny, some actresses took drugs to stay thin, but for some, it was natural. Here are a few that have always struck me…
Besides, this is a great opportunity to share some of my favorite clips! Win-win!
Vera Ellen, for example, I’m not sure she had one! Check out this clip from White Christmas. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=meO3ims3GvU
Rosemary Clooney wasn’t much larger, look! [And I love this song!] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bzUfmh3G9AE
Audrey Hepburn, Funny Face! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9dcybKF8Pjo. If you know, you know I HEART Audrey Hepburn!
Judy Garland, but unfortunately, you know what Hollywood did to her, but I still love her to this day! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0odXnKhKBxQ
Marilyn Monroe was stacked and to me, her tiny waist never seemed odd, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eL7ETLLkQTY
Leslie Caron is another actress that I have always love with a teeny waist. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l0oNLU4PSxE
I love Virginia Mayo, but mostly because she is in movies with one of my all time favorite actors, Danny Kaye https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gbpBxkOt7HQ
There are more, but you get the idea.
