You're a fool, coreymax23. Ginger never disacknowledged her age and did not wear a fright wig. You might want to look up the definition of "fright wig" or Google photos of it. If you want to talk about Tammy Faye make-up, you shouldn't have mentioned Ann Miller here. I saw Ann on Broadway in "Sugar Babies" and I remember her many TV appearances of the time. She was known to pile on make-up to the hilt. It was over-the-top. She wore more make-up than Max Factor ever created. (And I like Ann.) Ginger Rogers was Hollywood Royalty and will remain so. Troll!

Ah yes, another person who doesn't know what they are talking about.
Acting, well, if that's what you call it
RKO thought she was a great actress, and let her pick and chose and star in many of her films, films which people went to seeevery time!
Just slept with the right people, like Marilyn to further her career.
Listening to sleazy internet rumors, on stupid basement dwelling armchair blogs again?
You need to quit believing that trash!
the flowing gowns to hide her shame that she let her body get grotesque.
Miss Rogers obviously had a free pass to her local all you can eat buffet.
Why don't you put your money where your mouth is and show us proof that she was fat But you can't, can you?
Because, Miss Ginger Rogers was never fat from the 1920s through the 1970s, and was still in great shape, and doing high kicks on Stage into her 60s!
In the scheme of Hollywood Legends, she isn't well liked or remembered, except by a few radicals on this site.
There are plenty of other websites, who talk about Miss Ginger Rogers People in Missouri remember her every year and So on
just stating fact.
Ahh ha ha ha ha h1c84a
WOW You clearly think a lot of your self importance, Don't You!
Hey troll Stating something as "FACT", doesn't make it so
You are stating your OPINION An opinion that clearly belongs to a hateful soul.
Since no one is going to believe you, with posts like yours
Why don't you get lost, and go hang out on Ann Miller's board.
Have A Good Day!
EDIT
WAIT A MINUTE
In the scheme of Hollywood Legends, she isn't well liked or
remembered
, except by a few radicals on this site.
BUT
YOU
REMEMBERED HER AND CAME HERE!
AHH Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha!
Take that
coreymax23
, You
flamer
You!
Have A Magnificent Day!
AHH Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha!

Still don't "get" her charm. Her face was too round, no pretty features, hardened with age. Acting, well, if that's what you call it, was stiff and wooden. Sex appeal? Please
Just slept with the right people, like Marilyn to further her career.
And she refused to acknowledge her age. Remember how idiotic she looked in the 70s with the stiff blond fright wig, the Tammy Faye makeup, the flowing gowns to hide her shame that she let her body get grotesque. Real dancers, like Cyd and Ann Miller, kept their figures, but Miss Rogers obviously had a free pass to her local all you can eat buffet. I'm not judging her, just stating fact. In the scheme of Hollywood Legends, she isn't well liked or remembered, except by a few radicals on this site.

KNOWLEDGE is understanding that
ygrittesnow
doesn't like Miss Ginger Rogers.
WISDOM is seeing
ygrittesnow
spending time on the message board of a actress that
ygrittesnow
does like.
MOVE ALONG!

Did you read the above messages, ygrittesnow? When Fred Astaire appeared on the "Parkinson" show in Britain in 1976, Michael Parkinson asked Fred who his favorite dancing partner was. At first, Fred didn't want to choose. But ultimately he said "I must say Ginger was certainly the one. You know, the most effective partner I had. Everyone knows." You can see the clip on YouTube at "Fred Astaire interview - Parkinson 1976".
Fred was kept soley in films with Ginger made in the 1930s by RKO (except once in a film with Joan Fontaine "A Damsel in Distress" which was a flop and got Fred put on the Box-office Poison list). Ginger was busybusybusy making films with and without Fred. In the 1940s she had a wondeful career sans Fred.
She made many memorable, well-received comedies and dramas, and won an Oscar as Best Actress for "Kitty Foyle". Fred considered his career over after his RKO films with Ginger ended. He called the period between his last RKO film with Ginger in 1939 and hisb68 wonderful "comeback" with Judy Garland in "Easter Parade" (1948) "the dark years".

The IMDb member PixieInChains is another troll. She was on the Ginger Rogers message boards December 24th, 2015 talking trash. She got put in her place by Ginger's fans. I looked at PixieInChains' other posts and sure enough she bashes many of the stars she bothers to post about. Waste of time!

Yes, there are a few trolls that pick a random message board or two each day, and go there and will say hateful things, lies, or just make crazy stuff up
The one about Carrie Fisher being adopted was flat out dumb, because it was always obvious Carrie inherited Debbie Reynolds eyes
Still, it is hard to tell when the non-"crazy" ones come by, because they are good at being specific and make it seem like they are really genuine.
I guess the lack of specifics coming from the OP, should have been a clue what we were dealing with
I've also learned to watch out for people making statements, and then saying "It's True", but then they don't provide any documentation to back up their claim.
Nevertheless, it still stings to hear such comments concerning our beloved Miss Ginger Rogers.
Unfortunately, the OP wasn't the first one to take aim at Miss Ginger Rogers, and probably won't be the last.

The OP is a naysaying oddball who has been bashing Gwyneth Paltrow, George Clooney, Jennifer Aniston and others on their message boards. Just a troll!

Very odd critic of Ginger. She was much more than a chorus girl Far from unattractive. Perhaps you should watch a different one of her movies and rethink your opinion of her

PREACH, retro!!!

You have no power here.
in all of your pathetic comments pertaining to the divine goddess known as Ginger Rogers.
You have messed with the wrong fans.

Hmmm, what's that smell? I do believe it's troll poo.
To the OP, you are laughably transparent in your trolling efforts, and of course you are absurdly, ridiculously wrong in all of your pathetic comments pertaining to the divine goddess known as Ginger Rogers.
Do everyone a favor and scurry back under your bridge. You have no power here.
You have messed with the wrong fans.

SO true! And remember, Ginger won her Oscar WITHOUT Mr. Astaire

HA!! Ridiculous! I studied tap with a man named Tracy Everitt, who beside doing the Judy Garland Show, studied with Astaire and Hermes Pan.. And he said Ginger Rogers was the only dancer who ever looked natural with Astaire, all the other women he danced with were so impressed by him they let it show in their dance, she was the only one who wasnt, and was herself.. Said she had the best natural balance of any dancer he'd ever seen..
And thats just the opinion of one professional who happened to work in that era.. You only have to watch and have ANY knowledge of dance at all, to see she is amazing.. Oh, and no without Astaire she WOULDNT be a chorus girl, as she had a career in movies before he did!! They just happened to work SO well together, that 80 years later, it still cant be touched!
THATS why today you hear 'Fred and Ginger' NOT Fred and Eleanor, or Fred and Cyd, or Fred and Judy.. Because the one who stood out was GINGER.. Time has proven it..

you mad, bro? or Ms. bro?
I don't need to defend the Academy-Award-winning, #14 AFI-ranked Greatest Actress of all-time, as her resume speaks for itself. If you aren't a fan, fine but no need to jump on her Board and flame about how 'average' she isyou really sound like a sad, sullen person who can only feel relevant by trying to bring everyone else down to your 'average', stomach-churning level. Go take some seltzer, dudeprobably the leftover cat food you ate for breakfast.
And what have YOU accomplished in life to this point? Until IMDb has a1354 dedicated Message Board for 'Coloradochinesecrested' (whatever THAT is), your weak smack is irrelevant - and it would be even if you DID have your own board (in which event I will assume that the proprietors of the IMDb board had completely lost their mind, or had been viciously hacked.)
go back to the Kate Hepburn board or wherever the flip you crawled over here from.

I am not sure how
HATERS
interpret their desires to go see a movie these days
But back in Miss Ginger Rogers time, great actresses like Miss Ginger Rogers were considered to be "
Box Office Draws
". Many People would go to see a movie, because their favorite stars were in it. THAT IS A FACT! That is why Studios signed Great Actors to long term contracts, and used them, time and time again in all of their movies.
Heck, even as late as 1978, which was AFTER Miss Ginger Rogers heyday When
Superman: The Movie
was made While the producers knew that Superman needed to be played by an Unknown Actor, they also knew they needed big name stars to appear in the film too, in order to attract adult audiences, because Superman was considered by many to be "
a character that only children would be interested in seeing
" And so
Marlon Brando
&
Gene Hackman
were cast And if anyone takes the time to notice, they will see that they are are top billed, BEFORE Christopher Reeve. That's really saying something, since Christopher Reeve plays the title role and lets face it We all know that the only real reason, why anyone would want to see THIS movie, is because of Superman! But that told audiences, this was not going to be a "
Kiddie
" film. And it wasn't!
The reality is, without FANS of actresses like Miss Ginger Rogers, Movies would constantly flop at the Box Office, because no one would want to go see them. Eventually the movie industry would have come to an end, and websites like IMDb wouldn't exist.
IMDb owes it's existence to the
FANS
, and it wasn't created so HATERS could bash every fan and every movie!
IMDb is NOT a HATE site!
If any HATER can't accept the reality, that FANS will be on IMDb praising their favorite stars, and mourning them when they pass
R.I.P. Carrie Fisher & Debbie Reynolds
then
THEY
are the ones who are "
Truly Unhinged
".

You use IMDb as a hate site, MonicaSellersMonroe. Your mentality "I hate it when people try to use IMDB as a fan site." needs to go. (It smacks of hate!) Where better for fans to discuss their favorite stars than a site like this? I've read the hate you'd written about other actors and actresses here on IMDb. If you dislike Ginger Rogers, Meryl Streep, Barbra Streisand, et alstay off their message boards. This message board is for Ginger Rogers. "Kitty Foyle" and "Storm Warning" are not forgotten by Ginger's fans. Just because a film is old doesn't mean its forgotten. Bette Davis wasn't nominated for an Oscar for "Of Human Bondage". Yet, she won an Oscar for "Jezebel". Just because those films are old doesn't mean they're forgotten by her fans.

I don't hate Ginger Rogers. I hate when people try to use IMDB as a fan site. No one is above criticism. I don't understand why you get so personally offended by people who don't worship her.

Storm Warning and Kitty Foyle are both long forgotten by the public. Not even the presence of former President Reagan and the truly legendary Doris Day have helped.

mcdemuth, MonicaSellersMonroe is a hater. Just by taking a quick glance at the message boards she visitsshe's recently hated on Meryl Streep, Barbra Streisand, Janet Jackson and more. Ignore the hater.
Ginger got superb reviews for "Kitty Foyle" and the movie still packs an emotional wallop. It was a staple on pre-cable TV for many, many years. Since cable, it runs frequently on TCM and was shown often on AMC when it was legit.
"Kitty Foyle" was one of my town's libray's first movies on VHS. Now, our library has both the old VHS version as well as the DVD. Speaks volumes for an almost 77-year-old film.
Regarding "Storm Warning", I've always found it thrilling and suspenseful. I love the scene when Steve Cochran tries to molest Ginger and she gives him a tearful telling-off.
The LA Examiner said the acting of Ginger Rogers and Doris Day in this film was the best seen at Warner Bros. since Bette Davis and Olivia de Havilland. Cue said it was Ginger's finest performance to date. MonicaSellersMonroe is a naysaying troll!

Well, It's been a long while since you last stopped by
And said a bunch of negative things about Miss Ginger Rogers
insulted me
, and probably insulted others here too, for speaking positively about her.
And here you are again, doing the exact same thing.
It's really sad, that you seem to hate Miss Ginger Rogers for some reason, clearly despise people who think otherwise, and are only capable of making negative comments
No one cares if you think
I don't really see why I should care about what you think, either So This is the only thing that I am ever going to say to you
Best Wishes To You For A Happy Life!

You don't know what you are talking about.
As already noted: She won an Oscar as best actress for "Kitty Foyle" (1940), the very next year, after she decided to focus on movies with out Mr Astaire.
And I think she also should have won an Oscar for her performance in "Storm Warning" (1951). Her character gets furious at her co-star, and I was so convinced she really was furious, it made me so uncomfortable I actually wanted to leave the room.
Oscars are just popularity awards. Even Cher has one. Kitty Foyle was a dull film that's only remembered by the few remaining Ginger fanatics. No one cares if you think she deserved an Oscar for the dull and dreadful Storm Warning.
Ok Troll, Do you feel better that you came here, dumped your sickness all over Miss Ginger Rogers' reputation and her fans loyalty, and then ran away like a chicken?
At least Miss Ginger Rogers' was a wonderful human being, and would never have said the things you did, to you.
I suggest that you go see a Doctor, and then watch more of Miss Ginger Rogers' Films you know, the 63 films she did without Mr Astaire.
You are truly unhinged. No one is required to worship your beloved Ginger Rogers. Did you ever even meet Ginger Rogers? How the hell do you know what she was like?

nice reply, McD!!! I was a bit more 'curt'and wanted to be a LOT more 'curt' but not wanting to get tossed off the board
KIG!!!
