Bettie Page Hospitalized After Heart Attack

Pinup Bettie Page hospitalized after heart attack - Yahoo! News

We're always losing the world's stars, but many of them have lived their vapid lives and will eventually be forgotten. Bettie Page is one of those who won't be, not anytime soon. As an early Playboy bunny and a popular pin-up girl, she was well known in the 1950's and still is today. Men will be looking at photos of her for years to come, and ladies with class will view her as an example of how to be both lady-like and attractive.

You've probably seen a picture of her even if you're unfamiliar with the name -- probably in a calendar, maybe in a mechanic's shop -- but if you aren't sure:

Nowadays, she's old and grey, but she still has a pretty face. She always had a smile that was genuine, rather than forced and telling of a "spoiled bitch" lifestyle; her body was the real deal, a perfect example of a prime, all-natural girl.

She may not be the same woman she was in those pictures, but she usually declines photos because that's how she wants to be remembered, and who wouldn't want to honor that? Definitely, she was a woman to remember, and will be even if she doesn't make it out of the hospital this time.

I was annoyed with how trendy she was 7-8 years ago when I was in High School. It made no sense whatsoever to me.

Bettie Page has always been well-known. I'm unaware of any sudden surge in popularity that she had, but I can't say it was poorly aimed, considering that she's a lot nicer looking than the vast majority of modern superstars.

Ah, the times when women weren't super skinny. How we miss thee.

she manages to be both a positive model for women embracing their bodies and sexuality while still being appealing to men. you should think more positively of her next time you see a cute alternative/scene/hipster/whatever girl.

So sad...

Also, the last pic you posted in the spoiler isn't her. It's the actress in the movie based on her life.

Thanks for clearing that up. I wasn't totally sure, but the quality of the photograph was making me doubt (since most of her photos look "older," for obvious reasons). I'll leave it in because she was obviously a real good choice, and maybe people will be interested in the movie you mentioned.

I hope she makes it. I love Bettie Page, really made me feel better about myself when I was younger.

COME ON 2008 YOUVE GOT LIKE 3 WEEKS LEFT SHOW US WHAT YOUVE GOT

[Keria]

I didn't even know she was still alive @_@ I hope she recovers, fuck you 2008.

[Kohan]

I hope she recovers, as well. No one lives forever, but wilting away in a hospital isn't the greatest. Even though they say you don't always instantly die when you "pass in your sleep," at least it's faster than spending your last days in a hospital. As a dignified woman, she deserves a more dignified way out. Here's to hoping.

[Xenega]

She just died today...
Was on life support since the 2nd of this month...
So so so sad

She will be immortalized though, I'm sure

[Kohan]

It is very sad. All I hope is that it wasn't painful for her.

[Xenega]

Me too...
Do you know if you like, feel pain on life support?
I hope that if you do it isn't bad ]=

She was really an incredible woman...
I'm so sad right now

[TheShadyMan]

Yes! My ex never fucking shut up about her. I hope she dies and she cries. Alot. QQ yeah yeah I know, fuck off.

[BadKarma]

Well that sucks
