Nice to hear this music which was performed before my own time. Dorothy Dandridge was not only a good Singer she was a beautiful gal and could dance very well. Nice to hear and to watch!

Hello Dorothy fans/American peoples/Gentle readers-I noticed there are a lot of comments about Marilyn getting more fame than Dorothy. Well at the end of last year I fell in love and continue to admire Dorothy Dandridge. She was very talented and I made a t-shirt with her on it. I tell everyone about her. And I'm a White New Zealander. I thought it might make you and her proud to know her name is a little more known than you thought. Have a lovely day/night you're all amazing. :)

Now I know where the Eddie Murphy movie "Coming To America" got that idea for the wedding ceremony dance scene.

Did you know that Marilyn Monroe did a similar thing just like this but hers actually got looked at and respected rasicim back then was crazy she pretty much was marilyn before marilyn ever was big i don't know why i don't see Dorthy on tea shirts and picture frames instead

I'd seen her films, of course, but I had no idea what I live wire she was.  Seeing her at her most explosive, reminds me a little of the time I saw Jimi Hendrix play in a small room.  Made the hair stand up on my arms.  Great stuff.  Thank you.

The problem is that people don't realize that history repeats itself.  We all add our twist to it however its the same thing. You put a naive girl on screen. She is winning she is making money and her family too, so they don't see nothing wrong with whats going on.... The majority watch TV or the children watches TV, which is a form of mind control. and they have another group of people going the direction played out for them.This is very sexy... she jiggling all over the place and she was beautiful. Even today people would be like WOW. Beyonce and Nikki are good looking females for today. I guess face wise you can say.  They are shapely, however in fifteen, twenty  years someone pretty, pretty coming up and pushing those females to the side... Its called life.

I miss Dot.  She' s another caught in a social vice not of her making.  It's interesting that I never knew until later in her career that Dandridge was so strong of voice!

Very revealing performance. And people talk about how sexualized we are today.

This is sublime; so spirited & passionate. Suffice it to say, it is from 1941 making the late, great Miss Daindridge 19 years old. What is amazing is that she had such panache & aura & star quality at an age when many people are still students. Halle perfectly captured her sensuality, if not her innocence; I would love to see Rihanna play her on stage, as she is youthful & sensual, hence she could exude the required innocence. This number should have featured in her biography. Thank you.

PEOPLE ARE NOT as smart as they use to be all we've done is add on what was already discovered if you build a house is that a great creation, no anybody can do it who created the brick to build and far as talent goes it required a lot it was a gift im not that savvy but I bet you I can put a beat together it takes nothing that's my point their is nothing talented about it, it took genius to create what has been laid down and that barely exist today
