C L A U D E Posted October 11, 2011 Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 I am just a Lucy fanatic who around 1985 started saving clippings of her and eventually buying and collecting vintage photos and magazines. I have tons of Lucy clippings from 1936 on - my favorite eras to collect being the 1940's and 1950's being her glamorous movie star and I Love Lucy eras. OIC, i thought you were an insider to have such rare photographs, but you're a collector then, you're doing great work, that must be some collection you have!

Taylor Posted October 12, 2011 Report Share Posted October 12, 2011 Wonder if Bill ever farted while in that thing. I heard Viv was afraid he'd do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh so that's why there's this pic of him eating mountains of BEANS at the comissary that day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C L A U D E Posted October 13, 2011 Report Share Posted October 13, 2011 Like Hep: Diana Ross, Lucy, Dinah Shore Oh yeah, i remember this, Diana was auditioning Lucy and Dinah as the NEW Supremes. BUT, Lucy's Do Wops weren't up to par. This is another dress chosen by gary no doubt! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylor Posted October 13, 2011 Report Share Posted October 13, 2011 Yeah, I don't know if it's the pattern or what, but it looked like Lucy's got a tummy on her. Not the most flattering outfit I've seen her in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the most flattering outfit I've seen her in. Her protruding tummy was the main reason she lost the spot as a PIP with Gladys Knight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C L A U D E Posted October 22, 2011 Report Share Posted October 22, 2011 Absolutely beautiful, and some nice upper chicklets too, you so seldom see her upper teeth, unless they're blacked out of course, even the dog looks cute as hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 Can anyone do a translation on the rest of the lyrics to the "Like Hep" song. "To Be Like Hep. It's like you're hip, but the hip is so much hipper. Flip but flip is really flipper. More like a ...........stripper (or tripper). You're in that special spin. You only play to win. You're so far out, you're in. When you act like hep." To be like hep. You stay up late for the Betty Grable movies. (next line unintelligible) Quote every speech by Herbert "Hovie". You buy that Disney lamp. You're hot for Terence Stamp? The world is one big camp when you act like hep..." Lucy actually holds her own and then some as part of this once-in-a-lifetime team: Dinah Shore and Diana Ross, but the outfit and hair are dreadful.

The line following Betty Grable movies is "Think Vera Ralston's groovy." The other one sounds like "More like a heavy tune named(?) tripper."

I bet that wasn't the case here: it was a special, right? Then there were costume designers and consultants involved, she certainly didn't pick this herself! It was probably picked or even designed to -- in theory, anyway-- fit the theme of the number but somehow, somewhere went terribly wrong! The hair I can't explain -- it's her last season(s) HL wig, perhaps a variation thereof so I kinda like it but if it doesn't look as good as usual, perhaps this may have been a rare instance where Irma couldn't be there to maintain it as she usually would and she was left in "lesser hands". Just a hunch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
