Eartha was born on a cotton farm in 1927 and had a long career as a singer, sometimes actress. She was probably the first black woman that white men could say was hot (without being shot) because of her light skin and sultry voice. Wierd to think about, isn't it? People were so ass backwards. Eartha was actually bi-racial. She died yesterday at the age of 81. Rest in peace, Eartha, you were too good for the bastards and we all know it.

I loved her voice. It was so seductive. She will be missed by the generations who appreciated her. I'm sorry the younger generation never got to know her style!
She truly deserves to Rest In
Peace!
RIP Eartha, u were a dear soul.
This woman had a face for the ages. High cheek bones, dimples, beautiful smile. Whenever I hear her name, that stunning face always comes to mind.
Used to watch her on Sullivan when I was a kid.
Luvved her "pussycat" growl.
