IN the section about Audrey and MY FAIR LADY - Edward Z. Epstein writes that "....the voice behind Audrey, Marni Nixon, made the mistake of letting it be known she was the singing voice of Eliza. She was blacklisted in the industry for years."

I knew Marni, and I do not believe that at all. She appeared a year later in The film of The Sound of Music, and then played Eliza at City Center in one of their My Fair Lady revivals. After her marriage to Ernest Gold ended, she left Hollywood and hosted a children's TV show in Seattle, but I don't think it had anything to do with being blacklisted in Hollywood.

The cats went batshit crazy last night after I was asleep. The bathroom waste basket was turned over and emptied, the rug was wadded up in one corner of the bathroom, and my toothpaste and brush were in the sink. There are DVDs all over the floor and the lid to one of annabelle's treats is missing.

Impressive is that you slept through all of the noise.

DR Jrand & hopefully not former DR Ron, I am thinking of you both this first Mother's Day without your mothers.

Today is my first mother's day.....without my mother.....

I am having a bowl of her favorite Progresso soup....Southwestern Chicken Noodle.....for lunch.

I posted and then saw this. I like your idea for lunch. Instead I put on a ring that had been my mother's.

I am reading a book I purchased at the Dollar Tree called AUDREY and BILL...A Romantic Biography....

Much of it I already knew or had read.....but there are some nice photos.

IN the section about Audrey and MY FAIR LADY - Edward Z. Epstein writes that "....the voice behind Audrey, Marni Nixon, made the mistake of letting it be known she was the singing voice of Eliza. She was blacklisted in the industry for years."

I never heard THAT before. I will only say that anyone who watches that movie and thinks that Audrey Hepburn is singing needs to visit an audiologist AND and optometrist.....

And it still bugs me that Stanley Hollway's lips don't match the track in "I'm Getting Married in the Morning"......even Annette Funicello could match her tracks in Beach Blanket Bingo....

I am shocked Marni was blacklisted.

Thanks for setting the record straight.

Fresh made Blueberry pancakes, bacon, scrambled eggs, fresh fruit salad, coffee and oj

Good morning, all.

No!!

Good afternoon, all.

Marni Nixon was never blacklisted so take nothing in that book seriously.

Apparently 1900 loud children have lighted next door and are loudly celebrating Mother's Day.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #46 on:** May 12, 2019, 10:30:09 AM »

Thank you, BK and DR Elmore. Not that I would have believed that for a moment.

I've only had about four hours of sleep. Made the really bad mistake of having a little of the leftover chicken salad from Jerry's - it did me in, I'm afraid.

I am here to tell you that it’s raining like a mother out there.

Helper is coming by to get the Ballet on B'way invoices - we got them in late Friday.

Is the other part of the story true, is Marni the one who leaked that she did the singing for Audrey Hepburn?

Good afternoon!

Watching and enjoying "Bathrooms Over Broadway." Thanks for the suggestion, DR John G and BK!

Yesterday when the doorbell rang I rushed to answer it expecting/hoping for flowers. Nope, it was just a neighbor.

Jane · « **Reply #56 on:** May 12, 2019, 11:20:37 AM »

I just received a lovely arrangement of flowers from Bryan & Kate. The card says delivery date Saturday. I don't think Bryan will be happy about that. Last year they arrived the Monday after Mother's Day so I am grateful they are here this morning.

Well, I went to the pet adoption and Annabelle and Thatch have a little sister around 12 weeks old. The ACC gave her the name Vince Noir, but I will rename her.

The ACC just emailed me her photo and credentials. I've assembled her new cage/home and now I must go to the event and bring her home.

John G. · « **Reply #58 on:** May 12, 2019, 11:52:54 AM »

She’s beautiful, Elmore, regardless of the name.

Let’s move on ...
