Eartha Kitt died on Christmas Day, 2008 after finally succumbing to a long battle against colon cancer. The American actress and singer was 81-years-old when she passed away.
This video shows her performing the song she was probably best known for, the 1953 Christmas song, Santa Baby. How much better this is than that God awful Ozzy Osbourne and Jessica Simpson racket.
Eartha Kitt was a multi-talented lady, known as an actress, singer, and cabaret star. Orson Welles once called her the “most exciting woman in the world”.
Kitt was not only talented but also a beautiful and glamorous woman. The world will be a less fair place without her. R.I.P. Eartha Kitt – you’ll be sorely missed.
