My birthday song, my happy world (Part 248).....

 Badass Birthday 

On this date, in 1908, in Massachusetts, Bette Davis was born. 


Seriously, it's going to be harder to find anyone, especially and actor or actress, who embodies to perfection the word Badass!

She had a decades long career.  She had 10 Oscar nominations, and 2 wins for Best Actress.   She took not shit from anyone and had no problem playing unsympathetic or even villainous roles.   And she was the title of a #1 Billboard Hit near the end of her life (Kim Carnes' Bette Davis Eyes), and was mentioned in a hit song years after her death (Madonna's Vogue).

She passed away in 1989 at the age of 80.
