Eartha Kitt You Will Be Missed
By Saintless. Filed in Personal |
Eartha Kitt was an amazing woman and performer. I just found out that she passed away yesterday, Christmas Day, through One Utah. Miss Kitt was known for her role as Catwoman, as well as the above song, Santa Baby. Her story is amazing.
All of the reports are saying she passed away yesterday, so I’m assuming that her web site simply has a typo, where it lists Dec 26.
Her song “I Want To Be Evil” has been a personal favorite of mine, one of the only songs that touches me profoundly every time I hear it. I listen to it almost daily. At a recent party I held, I made everyone watch the old (above) and a new version of “Santa Baby”, after listening to “I Want To Be Evil” and even dancing and singing to that song. After that party, I thought about taking a vacation to see her in one of her 2009 performances, but I guess I have missed that opportunity.
I’ll always be a fan. Rest in peace, Miss Kitt.
