I Wanted To Be Betty Grabel

Betty Grabel was a quintessential entertainer, pure Hollywood. With a gorgeous smile and sexy dancing legs that looked fine in heels. Her blonde curls appeared natural; who cares if they weren’t? She lit up the fifties and sixties with her empathetic brown eyes. The epitome of beauty, she was only one of my heroes. I could have been here too if I had learned to dance or wear heels. Watching her on the big screen brought joy to my childhood. Many of my favorite dreams involved being Betty Grabel.

Didn't she have her legs insured for millions of dollars?

For some reason, I barely remember Betty Grable. She was a beauty, though.

Oh, she was fun! The Dolly Sisters is one of my favorite shows ever.
