Listening to this Marilyn Monroe song by Nicki Minaj and thinking…
…WHEN IS SOMEONE GOING TO DO A DOROTHY DANDRIDGE SONG?!?!
For the Love of Dorothy Dandridge
About
Dorothy Dandridge broke down racial barriers and set the path for black actresses. She became the first black female to be nominated for an Academy Award in the Best Actress category for her role in Carmen Jones, and the first black woman to grace the cover of Life magazine. However, society was unable to fully appreciate Dorothy during her lifetime simply because of the color of her skin. A legend in every sense of the word, Dorothy Dandridge will forever remain the epitome of beauty and grace.
