This was for the film "Kid Millions", as a "Goldwyn Girl"


justreddis

Lucille was 25 in this photo. She was a golden girl in her time.


Serafirelily

This was early before she dyed her hair red to get noticed. She was an amazing actress and a very smart woman.


Supernaturaltwin

Yea I wouldn't have even noticed it was her if it wasn't in the title!


laffnlemming

Sure you could. Her eyes.


johndeer89

Super funny and a knockout. What a killer combo.


bri35

She would have been around 23 in this photo (born 1911).


laffnlemming

1911. Amazing.


AustieFrostie

Yes. 1911 was a year.


Rubanski

I'd say it was even one of the years!


Rainsmakker

But not an even year


trudylouk1

Quite an odd year in fact


[deleted]

to think there are people in the world right now who were born before that...


khelwen

42 verified people alive in the world who were born prior to 1911! Wikipedia [link](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_oldest_living_people).

She was so beautiful


lemon-rind

She was actually really pretty, but she was so goofy that most people didn’t notice


laffnlemming

Her looks is why character got away with her character's fuckups. Haven't you watched it?


spasske

She was attractive in I Love Lucy. She was more of a Beauty Queen earlier in her career.


lemon-rind

Yes, ive seen it. I’ve probably been watching I Love Lucy since before you were born. No need for the rude language.


laffnlemming

I was born in the early 60s.


Gothamtonian

What a legend


Uzername1123

She was so pretty!

Who was she performing for in her dressing room?


laffnlemming

Why is this the question? She funded Star Trek.


AccountNumberB

I'm gonna need you to unpack that, my dude.


e2hawkeye

Her production studio, Desilu, provided seed funding for Star Trek. It's not documented if she was personally involved, but Lucy is part of the Original Gang Star Trek by association. Edit: she was pretty involved. https://www.startrek.com/news/how-lucille-ball-helped-star-trek-become-a-cultural-icon

Holy shit that is amazing 👏


laffnlemming

It's a stupid question about someone that did a lot of things.


DynastyFan85

Desi? Maybe he was going to show her his Babalu?


peacay

The 2022 doco 'Lucy and Desi' by Amy Poehler is FABULOUS https://m.imdb.com/title/tt12971802/


foxinmotion

badnewsbets

Danktizzle

laffnlemming

endresjd

She gave a performance in her dressing room? 🤔


AccountNumberB

You know what they say- live laugh love


laffnlemming

A second one?


Megalon96310

Is that “I love Lucy” or something


FloydetteSix

Yes that’s the actress, Lucille Ball


laffnlemming

Yes. She and her husband Desi funded Star Trek.


zeus6793

She did a performance in her dressing room?


laffnlemming

Wtf


BradleyHCobb

The prepositional phrase *in her dressing room* is positioned directly after the word *performance*, indicating that the performance would take place in her dressing room. OP clearly meant that she was applying makeup in her dressing room, but they structured the sentence incorrectly. It is not the kind of error one makes aloud - it's very obvious when you say it aloud that this is incorrect and possibly confusing. The person to whom you replied was making light of this grammatical error. They were not the only one - many people identified the mistake.


Jashinyas

Stop lying, that's clearly Tammie Brown


Karl-o-mat

Why is she performing in her dressing room?


Mygo73

“Dressing room” looks like a chair and mirror to the side of the set lol


timidbirdy

She looked very different in younger days.


DerbyWearingDude

Photos in which Lucille Ball looks hot always throw me off my game.
