Bette Davis Trivia
|
- Interred at Forest Lawn (Hollywood Hills), Los Angeles, California, USA, just outside and to the left of the main entrance to the Court of Remembrance.
- She was voted the 10th Greatest Movie Star of all time by Entertainment Weekly.
- In 1952, she was asked to perform in a musical, "Two's Company." After several grueling months at rehearsals, her health deteriorated due to osteomylitis of the jaw and she had to leave the show only several weeks after it opened. She was to repeat this process in 1974 when she rehearsed for the musical version of "The Corn Is Green", called "Miss Moffat" but bowed out early in the run of the show for dubious medical reasons.
- Mentioned by name in Madonna's #1 hit "Vogue".
- All of Bette Davis' four husbands were gentiles, while her friend Joan Blondell's husband Mike Todd was Jewish. Blondell called Davis' brace of husbands the "Four Skins."
