Badass Birthday
In 1942, in Boston, Madeleine Kahn was born.
Sadly she passed WAY too young in 1999 from ovarian cancer at the age of 57 (as old as I am now...damn.)
Anyway, in that much too short lifespan, she was a total badass! Why? Well she had her own TV "Oh Madeleine" for 19 episodes in 1983-84. While I Remember watching that show, I honestly remember nothing about it. So maybe that wasn't too badass. So allow me to mention the following film roles:
Eunice Burns in "What's up Doc?"
Lil Von Shtupp in "Blazing Saddles"
Elizabeth in "Young Frankenstein"
Empress Nympho in "History Of The World, Part 1"
And of course
Mrs. White in "Clue"
A comedic genius. And absolute badass.
