The Betty Hutton Story - Part 1

[@EagleRockers]

I was able to meet Betty when I was a young teenager in the mid-60s. I got her autograph and a sweet smile I'll never forget.

[@asteverino8569]

Betty was before my time but I think she was fabulous!

[@robertgardner1498]

I found myself smiling the whole time. So charming!

[@PacRimJim]

Amazing that she lived so long despite her addictions and other problems.

[@gerardbouilloncom]

Now she makes the angels laugh ! A great woman with such an energy. (soory for my english)

[@Roco43]

Thanks, she was a fantastic person, hope you get time to watch the rest.

A beautiful, heartfelt tribute to gem of a human being. Thank you for posting such a professional, informative and entertaining piece of media. I thoroughly enjoyed walking through the life and times of Betty Hutton.

[@almeggs3247]

god bless you for this tribute what an incredible compassionate struggle for this young talented girl who sacrificed so much for her alcoholic mom once this truly was a great country where selfless people like betty could succeed

[@TheSpearhead45]

Thank You for posting the story on Betty. I only recently learned about her and I don't think it was just coincidence. I related to her struggles with addiction and like her I sought spiritual guidance; changed my whole life. She's an example of what happens to many lives; no matter who you are. But she also turned her life around as a result of a priest that came into her life, when she was at her lowest point. God Bless, Roco43.

Great compilation Barry and Roger - brought it all back vividly to me too! A truly superb trouper who accurately hit the mark in every genre she mastered, sometimes an unlucky loser, but always absolutely her quite unique self and right on top of her task. And - she was one of the few great performers to find success on stage right up to her departure from her glitzy world - at 86!! A pretty commanding perormance in any language!!

[@alepryor]

Yes watched all the parts yesterday. Enjoyed it all! Thanks so much!

+D.V. A. Thanks for the comment...Glad you enjoyed a look back at this wonderful person.

[@CarolAnnNapolitano]

I thought she got back together with her daughter and grand daughter. I was shocked to hear they weren't around when she died.

[@DMalltheway]

They didn’t even attend her funeral

[@Roco43]

Great! Thanks for watching.

[@Roco43]

[@OzPix]

@dayfan1962 Very pleased that you enjoyed it. Many thanks for the comment.

[@dianabeurman9937]

MAKES ME SICK TO THINK NOT ONE DAUGHTER CAME TO HER FUNERAL!!-!

[@MsSpitfire66]

I really enjoyed Ber Betty's story and this video. I have become a fan of Betty's since seeing her in Annie Get Your Gun." I wonder if she really was treated badly by her Annie co-stars as some have said. Personally, I believe her "insecurities" came from er father leaving two years after she was born. He didn't leave when her sister, Marion was born, only after Betty came along! Personally, I loved her as Annie and think she did a great job as Annie Oakley!

[@Roco43]

@MsSpitfire66 You are probably right. Her fathers departure must have made an enormous impact on the very young Betty. Many thanks for your perceptive comment.

[@rhythmictiger]

She said in an interview with Phil Donahue (? Think that's the guys name) that she left school at 9 but clearly she did go to highschool. Maybe she left at 9 briefly then went back, maybe she honestly couldn't remember bc of the effect of her addiction which she possibly inherited genetically from her mother.

[@Roco43]

Many thanks. Pleased that you enjoyed it.

Break it down girl!

[@unclealand]

Never noticed how much Bette Midler stole from Betty Hutton's movie performances.

[@Roco43]

Yes, you're probably right. Thanks for comment

[@user-nd5jc8xv8v]

ye and thanks uploader---they mwere a ma baker type mob but all artists------betty was an entertainer from 5 years old n stuck out------her mum said while they travelled to a gig at least the police are behind us now------i like that

[@Roco43]

@rgarcia77 Thanks, glad you enjoyed it. Yes Betty was a great star. Sorry for the delay but your comment got flagged as spam.

[@marydonovan6681]

There was alcoholism in Betty’s family. Her mother suffered with it as well as Betty. Alcoholism is a family disease that destroys relationships. Betty’s daughters could have benefitted from professional counseling and self-help groups like Al-Anon. We must forgive the behavior of our loved ones who are under the influence. This is not for the benefit of the offenders,; they don’t deserve it, but we deserve peace.

[@dutertefan]

3:51 censorship or edit?

[@rhythmictiger]

Merman was such a # to remove her song, she would've known what a break that was.

[@highlyfavored12]

I'm not a fan of the narrator.

[@mariatobe2205]

Her 3 daughters were ungrateful so called human beings. They are not the judge of their Mother only God is, She could have aborted them 3 numbnuts but she did not. God has said who do you honor your parents once a Famous Man was asked a question. Who do you honor first @the man said your mother, then he asked then who do you honor 2nd the man said your Mother, then the Man said who do you honor 3rd the Man said your mother, then he said who do you honor 4th then the Man said your Father. So you see Your Mother holds a High place in GODs Eye. So no matter what your Mother does in Life it is not your place to condemn her, you should honor Her the woman that gave your spoiled ungrateful self LIFE. MARIA IS MY NAME.
