I still can't get over how GREAT Lena looks for her age. I wonder how Alicia Keys is going to do when she plays Lena in the movie?

"Believe In Yourself" Lena Horne - The Wiz 
^The original studio version when Lena was 61.
^The amazing live version on Broadway when Lena was 64.
This is still available at YouTube, but the owner won't allow it to be
embedded 
^Shakily introduced by a bearded Richard Chamberlain, a 64 year-old
Lena receives an honorary Tony in 1981, followed by another wild live
rendition of "Believe In Yourself".

I just caught her last night on a rerun of the '70's sitcom Sanford & Son. She was so beautiful and still is. Is she part white?

From what I've read, both sides of Lena's family are mixed with Native-American and white.

Oh, I didn't know about her Native American ancestry. Interesting. Whatever her heritage, she's stunning.

Many African Americans have Native American in their background
I never thought Lena Horne was all that attractive. She was kind of funny looking. Now Dorothy Dandridge on the other hand...
P.S. to the OP, you're supposed to put [actress/singer] in th thread title!! ::gives you the side eye of death::
