Lauren Bacall: Get Outta My Face!

"You know how to get into a car, don't you, Steve? You just step off the curb, and go." 83-year-old Lauren Bacall (formerly Betty Joan Perske) was just 19 when she whispered words like that to her late husband, Humphrey Bogart, in her 1944 film debut as Slim in, "To Have and Have Not."


Miss Bacall was at Mr. Chow last night -- signing autographs and posing for paparazzi -- some of whom rarely see a star of her magnitude. Bacall chastised an autograph seeker who got to close to her famous visage, saying, "Don't stick things in my face!"

31. Some of you morons wouldn't know a real star if it bit you in the a**! Bacall is grade A Hollywood talent, back then and now. Lindsay Lohan (God bless her and keep her healthy) iwas not, is not and will never BE in the same league. Neither would 90% of today's Hollywood actresses.

Woof

33. I'd rather see a posting on Lauren Bacall than another 15 postings on that loser Britney, Lindsay or just about anything else on TMZ.

38. I wonder why Hollywood can't be the way it once was. Unfortunately, we live in an era where our female "celebrities" flash their privates and are arrested for DUI's. There are people that this site promotes who haven't done a darn thing, except be born into money and behave like animals.

I love Lauren Bacall. I think my hubby looks a bit like Bogie, too!
