Bing Crosby & Bob Hope: The Cameos

(My Favorite Blonde (1942) has been removed because...reasons.)
Bing Crosby's cameos in a number of Bob Hope's pictures, and a couple of joint appearances in other people's pictures.
1. The Princess and the Pirate (1944) w/ Virginia Mayo
2. My Favorite Brunette (1947) w/ Dorothy Lamour
3. The Greatest Show on Earth (1952)
4. Son of Paleface (1952) (clip from Just for You)
5. Off Limits (1953) (clip from Welcome Stranger)
6. Scared Stiff (1953) w/ Dean Martin & Jerry Lewis
7. Alias Jesse James (1959)
I would have included Cancel My Reservation (1972), but...erm...unfortunately I don't have it. Or perhaps fortunately, if it lives down to its reputation.

Bob Hope will always be my favorite.i been looking at his moves for 60 years live that man.❤

[@theironclads]

These cameos were always a hoot to see. Cancel My Reservation from 1972 also had Bing doing a cameo in Bob's movie that was very funny.

[@Glasshousebc]

They were brilliant to watch. Loved the static moment.

[@glenlay3293]

Two masters that's always a joy to see 😊🇬🇧

[@alvaropelayo8084]

I have always been a fan of Bing Crosby, and so much that I include in my preferences to Bob Hope. God bless them!!

[@QueerOkie]

Bob also got a mention in White Christmas in the song 'Gee, I Wish I Was Back in the Army' "How we would yell for Dietrich and Cornell Jolson, Hope and Benny all for free"

It's always amusing when someone in a movie breaks out of the make-believe and looks directly at the camera and addresses us, in the audience. Meanwhile, as seen here, the other performers in the shot pretend that's not happening, and just keep acting. Oliver Hardy, half of the Laurel & Hardy comedy duo, did this as well in the 1930s. He didn't speak to us, but he looked at us, when he was particularly exasperated with what Stan Laurel was doing.

[@WULDORI]

Did you know that Laurel chartered the same boat trip to America as Chaplin?

[@gregwatson8219]

Classic Duo!

[@ellenthorne8222]

I remember some of these cameos

[@LtScarecrow87]

Ok not gonna lie. I actually really enjoyed the static part

[@corbse2059]

Oh man I really love your channel! Bing Crosby is one of my favorite singers And I'm positive you think that too! just joking but really thank you I found my Great Grandfather's records and At least half of them are Bing Crosby and I really didn't Listen to them till I watch your videos and realized that I really enjoy his music. Thank you.

[@nicoley133]

+Cooper makowski You're welcome and thank you for the nice comment! How did you ever guess that I like Bing Crosby? :D

[@josephfernandez2130]

So ... it's genetic?

[@Fireeater-rl4ep]

Crosby did it before Stan Lee. :)

[@classicalhollywoodfilm8378]

There will never be anything similar to either of them. Fun fact bing Crosby and Bob hope were both born on the same month and year may 1903 they were 50 years old already in 1953🫢. But was still very active Bob hope died in 2003 at 100.

[@spectrum7virkeytroni]

That boxing scene made me think me that I bet kids today don't even know what horizontal and vertical holds are.

[@saganich74]

More static 🤣

[@TomBarrister]

The song Crosby is singing in "Welcome Stranger," (cameo in "Off Limits") is "My Heart is a Hobo."

[@Jlongtors0]

Help me out. I'm looking for a movie in which Bob Hope's grown son is played by Bing Crosby.

[@jamesfrancismchalejr7944]

I heard Bob was quite the " ladies Man " on the Silver Screen. He was a dedicated Husband, Father & Friend to the love of his life: His Beautiful Wife.

Weeee

1:00 rackshalack?

[@carp68]

"Rack-shellac" - slang for toothpaste. Teeth are the rack, the paste is the shellac. A reference to Bob Hope's sponsor, Pepsodent toothpaste.

[@jameshudson169]

@@carp68 yeah, he did love his pepsodent. it should have been his epitaph: you're gonna wonder where the yellow went when you brush your teeth with pepsodent! Robert Townes Hope May 29, 1903 - July 27, 2003 ty

[@billygillan821]
