Composer Oscar Levant said back in the 50s - “I knew Doris Day before she was a virgin. “

I am sad today about the death of Doris Day, one of my all time favorite actor/singers. She was so wholesome and her movies are all good. I just watched Calamity Jane for the first time a few weeks ago. She was the personification of grace and class. When I was a child, I had an album of hers and I would play it on my little portable record player over and over. This song was on it and I would sing along. It's from the 1958 movie Teacher's Pet, a romantic comedy with Day, Clark Gable and Gig Young which has become a favorite of mine. I hope you enjoy the song.

No love for Doris Day on Drudge?

Health and fitness pioneer Jack Lalanne died of pneumonia too at age 95.

Her death has overshadowed Lena Horne’s, more proof of white privelege. /sarc

Today’s Hollywood is a cesspool.

Even though Lena Horne died nine years ago, LOL!

“It sounds like she lived a rather lonely life in her later years. Sad for such a lovely and vivacious lady.”

Those who live into their 90s outlive their friends and often their children as well.

Some paper ran it as news a couple of days ago. I think it was the Failing LA Times.

Listen to "Secret Love" if you really want to hear a great singer. No auto-tune needed!

Here she is at 96

The caption says only;

"Dancing was her first love"

There was speculation that Terry Melcher, Doris Day’s son was the original Target for the Manson Murders At The Tate residence where Melcher was had lived just prior to Tate moving in.

Apparently Melcher thought about recording Manson but decided against it and Madison felt highly disrespected enough to target Melcher, but Melchet wasn’t there and the people who had moved into the residence were murdered instead by the Manson cult killers.

There was and will only be one of her. She was the absolute best and her movies with James Garner and Rock Hudson were full of laughs - a person with many talents - all sensational.

AND could she wear clothes - the greatest figure and most beautiful wardrobe in any movie made... Did we watch her for her acting - or her singing - or her clothes? I loved everything about her.

Someone wrote that she sounded lonely - I’m sure she would have taken exception to that as she apparently derived much happiness from her charities and love for animals.

Doris Day looked like THIS on her 97th birthday just a month or so ago. Incredible.
