The Mistinguett legend

Edición de la obra The Mistinguett legend

Rival to Josephine Baker and inspiration to Edith Piaf, Mistinguett- born Jean Boureois in the French village of Enghien in 1875 -was the original torch singer, the sultry chanteuse whose throbbing signature song "My Man" would later be immortalized by Fanny Brice and the movie 'Funny Girl.' Flaunting her gorgeous legs- rumored to be insured for millions of dollars -and clad in sequined skirts and flowing feather capes, she shimmied onto the Parisian music hall stages of the early 1900s and reigned supreme until her career ended in the 1950s.-Book jacket.
