Redhead You Didn't Know!

Cassandra Peterson

by CelticCurls

CelticCurls Author's Note: This is a timely Halloween repeat of a blog from May on another site.  I'm already researching another fun one and hope to make "Redhead You Didn't Know" a semi-regular feature.

 

Have you ever heard of this redhead?  She was born in 1951 and still looks remarkable in the recent photo shown below.  She holds the Guinness Book of World Record's title for youngest show-girl ever in Las Vegas, starting that job days after graduation in 1969.  She makes two small appearances as a redhead showgirl in James Bond 007 movie, Diamonds are Forever.  She even was part of an Italian band and had a small role in film.  Elvis dated her for awhile!

But...do you really know who this fabulous redhead is??  (scroll down for the answer)

 

Cassandra Peterson

Elvira - Mistress of the Dark

 

That's right!  None other than Elvira, Mistress of the Dark!

The campy, valley-girl/goth-influencing woman with the quick-sarcastic wit, hosting awful B-films from her red Victorian couch during the 1980's.  Her Los Angeles-based show became syndicated nationwide in the U.S., with tons of talk show appearances, and even a few movies.  She's the one who's become a sort of unofficial hostess of all things horror and halloween.

Couldn't wait until Halloween to share this with all of you - I never would have guessed, but in retrospect, it all makes sense.

 
 Here's a sample from her tv show:

Until next time, "unpleasant dreams..."

    It really is a neat story, huh? Glad you like the feature Rojo :-) Working on some new ones, though it might be hard to top. Oh, just added a link too, you can find her shows on Hulu.com.
