Trivia Question #2
"There are 2 degrees of separation between this video and a classic animation character; what are they?"
The classic animation character may be a bit obvious but you MUST include the connection between what's in the video above and the character to win... remember TWO degrees of separation.
NOTE: don't worry if you comment doesn't immediately show up, I'm going to keep the comments hidden for a couple days so that people can participate even if the trivia question has been solved so you should answer as soon as possible because like last time the first one to guess it right and answer BOTH parts of the question who is ALSO on my e-mail list will win a prize! I'll announce what it is when the winner is chosen!
It's been solved! Here's the comment that won it:
The song was first performed in late 1928 by Helen Kane, who became known as the 'Boop-Boop-a-Doop Girl' because of her baby-talk, scat-singing tag line to that song. This version was recorded right when Kane's popularity started to reach its peak, and became her signature song. Two years later, a cartoon character named Betty Boop was modeled after Kane.
BUT... there was also ANOTHER connection that could've won it and the SAME PERSON ANSWERED IT:
The character is Betty Boop. Both Boop and Monroe were recognized as sex symbols, and both based their images/personas on a silent film star, Clara Bow.
That pretty much sums it up! Here's a picture with Kane, Betty, and Bow to see for yourself!
And finally, Onions, here is your winner: Crooklyn (Stephie Daniels) from TapouT Radio
... and tell her what she's won: "a Betty Boop computer sitter that will watch in judgment of your every move!"
