Hard to know how old she is. For most of her career her birth year was said to be 1933, but someone started publishing the year as 1924 a few years ago. She has never said which is correct. It's likely that she misrepresented her age when she started acting as many women of her era did.

@@joejones9520 I think any logical person understands that. But, you cannot take away Dr. Jeckly's accomplishments just because Mr. Hyde needs to show his ass, due to Trauma. He did not have the tools to express himself any other way. While not an excuse, its very real and very prevalent amongst men of all races. She herself described him as a genius years after their divorce and his death. Im just using her words. I have a natural unforgiving nature, but I still know that people have a good side. I hate what he did to her, but I cannot deny how his music makes me feel. That would be me lying to myself. He was a disturbed person with trauma and mental health issues. Are you expecting people like that to live up to your standards of acceptability and accountability? If you are, you are kidding yourself. Do you want to be judged forever for the wrong you've done? Or do you want to be seen as balanced and a person who did some things right, as well? If so then you need to extend that same foresight to someone else.
