And happy birthday!
(no, that's not the title of the movie, I'm riffing on that to wish her a happy 89th!)

She really brought sex appeal to the role of Catwoman. Defining the character for future generations until Michelle Pfeiffer reinvented the role.

Thank Christ she doesn't dye her hair.

Eartha Kitt was also crazy too. Halle Berry as well. So being crazy is a prerequisite for the role.

R2, I love you for saying that.

Eartha wasn't crazy, r8, she was just theatrical.

Damn, she still looks good.

She was smart enough to bring a lot of humor to Catwoman, along with those great legs.
Eartha Kitt was good, too, in a totally different way: a glittery-eyed, vengeful cat.

Wasn’t she in an episode of Columbo?

I always confuse Julie Newmar with Lee Meriwether. Both are beauties.

She got some amazingly good work done. the key is not to try to fight the nasal folds too much, lest you end up looking like Demi Moore

r17- that's makeup giving her those cheekbones- it's more obvious in profile and on other younger models.
I've been to Julie's house for a job, and was hoping to do her makeup, but production told her to be makeup ready. I was getting some other ladies ready, when she saw my set up and said that they didn't tell her that there was a makeup artist there. Even at the advanced age that she was (this was maybe 10 years ago), she is still very very statuesque and stunning. All her photos of her in her youth- men must have been tongue tied when they saw her- she was a goddess.

You met her? Lucky YOU, r18! I hope she was nice to you.
I'm sure she was absolutely stunning. There are some women who keep "it" forever. I saw Honor Blackman outside Gieves and Hawkes on Sloane Square in 2012/2013 and did a double take NOT because I recognised her, but because she was an eye-catchingly gorgeous elderly woman. I'm reasonably sure she had had no work done. I got a clear look at her because she was right in front of me on the pavement waiting for a car.
STUNNING. I still remember how I finally twigged that she was Pussy Galore, and I simply couldn't stop staring because she was still so beautiful and graceful. Needless to say she had a gorgeously slim build, excellent though relaxed posture, and was beautifully dressed with a lovely scarf tied french-style around her neck.
Later I realised she must have been in her upper 80's by then, but I still can't believe it. She looked like a very well put together 65 year old.

She must have used Noxzema on that skin.
