Forgive my ignorance but who is she?

 

When I saw the thread title my first thought was of HM Queen Elizabeth II.

A friend once called her that... I've never been able to call her anything else since.

 

Same with Clorox Bleachman (Phyllis Lindstrom)... although that was just a friend repeating what she'd heard Clorox say on a talk show about the funny mispronunciations she'd heard of her name.

I meant “stop it” I couldn’t believe you didn’t recognize Aretha.

 

I think HM has some sort of deal with th devil to live eternal

never too late to have a happy childhood, I guess......I'm upset because somebody wondered who it was and you answered that way, the first mention of her "name" in this thread.....not particularly respectful considering she may be near death

I often refer to Lisa Marie's late daddy as Pelvis Parsley, though I got that from THE PINK PANTHER:

 

Cinderella is a one time character who only appears in the 1969 Pink Panther cartoon Pink-A-Rella

Info/Story

Unlike many of the other cinderella(s) This Cinderella is a scrawny, dirt-poor young girl who lives in a small shack. After finding a magic wand, the Pink Panther used it to give her a nice house, which at first frightened her but when Pink Panther showed her the wand, he used it to give her a makeover and transform her into a ravishing beauty for a night of dance with heartthrob Pelvis Parsley. However when the Witch, who lost her wand, came to get it back, Pink Panther had to take Cinderella home before midnight, which result in her losing one of her heels and changing back to her poor self. However Pelvis chase after her and after slip on her heel on her foot, returning back to her attractive self and she was carried off with him, to live happily ever after.

So did I.

 

I also thought immediately of Queen Elizabeth II. I'm saddened by the news of Aretha Franklin's declining health.

She has been near death a few times. I guess she just sang Think to the Grim Reaper and scared him off.

Funny, but I think of Carole King despite the fact that I was three when she wrote it and seven when she recorded it.

Yes, CBS just reported that she is in home hospice care following an earier story on CNN.
