R.I.P. - Eartha Kitt

She sang "Santa Baby" and died on Christmas Day. Her voice and her style were unique. She will be missed.

Paradoxically, she was probably better known as Catwoman than for her wonderful singing.

Blackballed for taking a stand against the Viet Nam war.


The first Dixie Chick.


RIP.

Amazing that she was still performing almost up to her death.

Always loved her song with the line "My Champagne tastes and your beer bottle pockets"
