She was so beautiful and so humble, original, you can’t find people like this anymore, God bless her in the afterlife… I wish music would come back alive before, not like the garbage we hear now…❤❤

[@topsyturvyy4558]

If I didn't know who she was I'd say she is just a singing contestant in some show! She was bashful modest and down to earth considering she was in Dick Clark's show and had lots of succeses behind her back already.

[@espanholparainiciantes6044]

@@topsyturvyy4558 I was impressed by the fact that she used invisible braces in the 80s. I thought it was a recent technology.

[@superfly19751]

She was a extremely talented and beautiful young woman who was ousted by the industry bc she didn’t play their game. Very rare at the time.

[@Chris-lf1ki]

is* She ain't dead. lol

[@TacShooter]

Well, she certainly rode high on the charts for a pretty good stretch. She was no one-hit wonder.

She's just like anyone else who doesn't want to be taken advantage of. Her Beautiful and Rare Talents were Taken advantage of by Greedy Predatory Record Execs.

Know something? Do tell.

[@oldhollywoodfan8009]

Rest in paradise, beautiful, talented Irene Cara.😢💔😞 Thank you for your work that created our childhood soundtrack.❤️ We'll remember your name.💫🕊️🌹

[@pjneslo8979]

I miss Dick Clark. He knew the music industry inside out

[@topsyturvyy4558]

Nah, the Industry is dead today he'd be appalled of what we call stars today.

[@michaelcollins2367]

She seems like such a nice person, who did not let looks, performing ability, and fame go to her head. Because she remained a nice person while having all those other things going for, she truly had it all.

[@lorireece1970]

Irene Cara really should've had a huge recording career! She had an amazing voice!

[@WInnerwinnerchickendinner.]

She did during the Eighties Fame Flashdance Out here on my own.She won Oscars,Grammys,Academy awards. In Fact she was up there with Michael Jackson but her record company where stealing her money from her. She sued and WON but was blacklisted for many years.Hope she takes them back to court for round 2 as I believe you can sue a company if you where put on a blacklist which it looks like she was.

[@jackanthony976]

Insiders say Irene Cara was "blacklisted" from the business which is why she suddenly disappeared from the recording industry. Lesson to be learned...don't make enemies in high places!

[@AngelofAnguish]

That being said, I wonder, "Just WHAT DID the 'head honchos' of the business have against her?"

[@superfly19751]

AngelofAnguish Nothing. They just did that to everyone. Most of them took it. Irene didn’t. Great for her. I hope she had a great life so far. $$ isn’t everything. Her dignity weighted more to her.

[@deronreed2945]

she did.

[@j.ahayward7245]

This woman had so much class,she was a very talented singer and actress.Very Beautiful lady.

[@PennPearson]

She's so fresh, enthusiastic and pleasant in this dialogue. And what a beautiful woman she was! I know she did well and has plenty of money but she had so much charisma and such a beautiful voice that I think she ought to have had more recognition.

[@TacShooter]

I've never heard her speak before. What a sweetheart!

[@keishagray4156]

Such a beautiful girl and so very talented. Miss you Irene.🌹

[@jan_phd]

Spectacular woman... I've always done searches for her performances.

[@topsyturvyy4558]

She is very shy and modest there considering she was already on top of the world!

[@user-bx2cg2ec8c]

She was also blacklisted by the industry.irene never got the flowers that she truly deserved.after 84-85, she disappeared .sadly in later life she became a recluse.bad management 🙏

[@armandoucles5346]

RIP Irene Cara 😢😢😢

[@mrob75]

so down to Earth....Irene should still be in the recording industry today.

[@pamelabacker3654]

She assembled her own band, called Hot Carmel. So, she's still performing, just not on a grand scale.

[@eskimoaleut6157]

I can easily imagine Irene walking off of American Bandstand and entering a beauty contest and winning it .

[@selmasoo]

Rest in sweet peace Ms. Cara 🤍

[@achimw.8283]

Hi ! It's all very sad, such a dear and good singer left us, much too soon! I was 19 years old when I saw the film in the cinema, it shaped my time, it was the time when I got my driver's license, it was on the radio when I had my first driving lesson, I couldn't get up because of the beautiful song concentrate on driving, which made my driving instructor angry! :-)) All in all a very nice time, thank you Irene Cara for making us happy in the 80's with your songs. One of the best singers of the 80's has left us, Irene, you will always be in in our hearts and your music will continue to accompany us through life. Rest in peace dear Irene, your music was great, is great, and will always be great. Your music fills the hearts of many people. Thank you for everything dear Irene Cara! Greetings from Luxembourg in Central Europe !

I don't think she is nervous. She's been a performer for many years. What looks like nervousness is actually her being humble.

[@reg12269]

@@scootergreen3 not as sweet as he tried to present himself..could b very aggressive

[@mshockey73]

I don't think he asked her anything inappropriate. It was also clear to see Irene liked him and felt comfortable in his presence.

[@thelobsterjesus]

@@mshockey73 Irene was a class act, and gracefully tolerated his line of questioning. But it is not classy of him to ask a woman about her age, and point out her appearance/braces, even in jest. He could have simply stuck with the 5 year goals questions and left it at that. He was a prick.
