I am sad. Rest in Peace Bettie.
Thanks Ellington for making us aware of her plight.And thanks to Adriana for bringing us up to date with this sorry end.

Hi Ellington, I’ve some of these photos on my pinboard and a book too. I’ve “entertained” myself on YouTube with Bettie last weekend, you’re right its Bettie not Betty….I found her so cute, sweet with that naughty innocence…adoreable..
I found out we share the same birthday though with a lot off years in between.
Bettie is still an inspiration these days. I saw Monica Belucci on the cover of December Vogue Espana with Bettie’s trademark hairdo.

Thanks Kpriss for adding the photos of Bettie Page.
They are rather timeless looking photos in away and she makes the Vogue girls look lame and sad.
I have not heard if her dire condition has changed or not, but I am hoping and praying for the best for her. She is a very interesting woman.

I’m glad you like the fish! ;) I even had the kids asking where they went because they love seeing them too!

I added some pictures with ~~Betty~~Bettie Page (I haven’t monitored her health lately. Is she in a better condition now?).

Not only I (too) prefer Karl’s calender for 2009, but as far as latest pin-ups concerned, I’m going for the Hollywood version with Susan Sarandon &co!

Ellington, you’re right. Well, in real life, my life, someone had a heart attack and died instantly. I guess I only have read “heart attack”….I’m very confused and sad…..altho virtual I’m human and so are you girls and I know this is not the place to write such a personal thing….sigh….

Yep I overlooked the details you gave about Betty Ellington!
I think KL’s calender that followed that Paris calender subject got me confused and I think I should slow down with reading too many blogs. Didn’t mean to pull the rug from under you Ells! Hoipe you and the family had a nice weekend!

Hey ladies! I mention about Bettie Page’s grave condition in my previous comment. Didn’t you read what I wrote?
On a happier note, THE FISH ARE BACK!!! HUZZAH!!! : )

Dolly, I’ve read that too but the source I’d read said she’s in a coma.

I just read that Betty Page is critically ill in hospital. She’s 85 and suffered a heart attack. Her family and friends are said to be extremely worried. Get well soon Betty!
