Gentlemen always seem to remember blondes.
I remember when I got the part in Gentlemen Prefer Blondes. Jane Russell - she was the brunette in it and I was the blonde. She got $200,000 for it, and I got my $500 a week, but that to me was, you know, considerable. She, by the way, was quite wonderful to me. The only thing was I couldn't get a dressing room. Finally, I really got to this kind of level and I said, "Look, after all, I am the blonde, and it is Gentlemen Prefer Blondes!" Because still they always kept saying, "Remember, you're not a star." I said, "Well, whatever I am, I am the blonde!
Men no longer prefer blondes. Today gentlemen seem to prefer gentlemen.
If gentlemen prefer blondes then I'm a blonde that prefers gentlemen.
Gentlemen prefer blondes... but gentlemen marry brunettes.
Gentlemen prefer blondes.
Blondes also prefer gentlemen.
It is possible that blondes also prefer gentlemen.
Gentlemen prefer blondes, but take what they can get.
I'd love to do 'Gentlemen Prefer Blondes' again - especially on Broadway.
It isn't that gentlemen really prefer blondes, it's just that we look dumber.
Remember, gentlemen, what a Roman emperor said: The corpse of an enemy always smells sweet.
It is perfectly right for a gentleman to say "ladies and gentlemen," but a lady should say, "gentlemen and ladies." You mention your friend's name before you do your own. I always feel like rebuking any woman who says, "ladies and gentlemen." It is a lack of good manners.
Fix me up with a mannequin, just remember I like blondes. I'll be the life of the party, even when I'm dead and gone.
'You Must Remember This', the podcast about 'the secret and or forgotten history of Hollywood's first century', has a thread dedicated to Dead Blondes, which is a clue to where it's coming from.
When I despair, I remember that all through history the way of truth and love has always won. There have been tyrants and murderers and for a time they seem invincible, but in the end, they always fall... think of it, always.
Then I despair... I remember that all through history, the way of truth and love has always won. There have been murderers and tyrants, and for a time they can seem invincible. But in the end they always fall. Think of it always.
