In an era where stars were born from the echoes of their footsteps on stage, one dancer outshone them all, yet her story remains shrouded in mystery. Vera Ellen, a name synonymous with grace, faced adversities that would have halted others in their tracks. With the world at war, resources scarce, and the entertainment industry on its knees, Vera Ellen danced through the hardships, weaving hope into the hearts of many. Yet, behind the curtain, she battled demons that sought to dim her radiant light. The stakes were high; in a time when a woman's worth was often measured by her visibility, Vera Ellen risked fading into obscurity. Her legacy, a testament to resilience, challenges us to look beyond the surface.

I absolutely loved Vera, two of my favorite films of all time are White Christmas and On The Town. I was so sad to learn she lost her baby, there is no deeper tragedy. And I am astonished that she accomplished those amazing dance numbers while suffering with anorexia. She had the tiniest waist and the best legs in Hollywood, and she was so beautiful. I will always be in awe of her.

Yes, Eleanor was the supreme queen of tap and Vera was the best for all around ability (ballet, tap, partnered dancing, etc.). In 1981, when Vera was terminally ill, she deeply appreciated the call she received from Eleanor expressing her concern and the admiration for her contributions. And, needless to say, Vera in turn idolized Eleanor.

Excellent and informative tribute to Vera-Ellen, however, not all photos were of Vera-Ellen.However, t must be said that she was one of the greatest dancers Hollywood ever produced.Her combination of ballet, tap, and modern dance had no superior in talent. Vera-Ellen ranks with the likes of Eleanor Powell, Cyd Charisse, Ann Miller, and yes, Ginger Rogers.

@2528drevas Месяц назад
Eleanor Powell was superior in talent. FRED ASTAIRE said so. He revealed in an interview that SHE was the only female dancer whose talent intimidated him. He said she was almost too strong of a dancer who could "pick 'em up and put 'em down as good as ANY man." I defer to Mr. Astaire's judgement.

Like Ann Miller, Vera Ellen was a great actress, and not just a dancer. Her career should have carried on past the dancing era. She was my favourite dancer/actress of that time. If she was anorexic, one of the reasons may have been her youthful chubby cheeks, something she saw every time she looked in a mirror. In an industry where looks are everything, chubby cheeks are not welcome. I've also got chubby cheeks and I got worryingly thin in my late teens to get that "classic" profile. Meanwhile, my body was stick thin. Luckily I snapped out of it with some loving support and without long-term damage but I loath my chubby face to this day, and I'm 61!

Good actress and great dancer. Some films she was incredibly skinny due to her eating disorders. This biography bounced around to much and really did not give much personal insight to her life. She seems to have had a very lonely life. Though she was praised for her artistic expression and had married twice. She must have had constant self esteem issues. She died at age 60, which to me is quite young.

No… she was not anorexic. Her mother had very odd eating habits. Vera ate a steak every day. There was a long list of foods she did not eat, and there were food combinations she would not eat. She ate a high protein low carb diet.
@sharonhines3476
@sharonhines3476 2 месяца назад
Your own statement about a long list of foods she wouldn't eat and the food combinations she avoided are red flags for disordered eating. Since anorexia and other eating disorders were not a diagnosis at that time, she was never diagnosed or treated for it. She did have what they called a dieting obsession at the time.
@debbiek316
@debbiek316 2 месяца назад
Have you read her biography? It goes into her eating in great detail. It was indoctrinated into het by her mother, who held these food beliefs . Example: one cannot eat potatoes with steak. One can eat steak. One can eat potatoes. But not together.

@@sharonhines3476 she did not write an autobiography. This was written by another. I think by today’s standards: she maintained a very Keto diet. Very high protein. I never said the only food she ate was steak. Is maintaining a keto diet an eating disorder? In her early movies, she was much less thin. The studio wanted her thinner. Her problem was the opposite… she was told her thighs were too muscular, too large. During filming, she would work so hard rehearsing that she would lose weight during filming.

If you're going to mention an eating disorder, you need to also mention that this has never been verified or diagnosed and a lot of her contemporaries and friends deny it. Until proven otherwise it's speculation and/or : gossip, body-shaming, intrusion, et al. Also quite of few of the photos are obviously not her. There just needs to be more competent and responsible storytelling...especially when the subject is no longer with us. Let's just all stick to talking about her dancing in which she is clearly at the top. In a multitude of folks opinions, professional and otherwise, she's up there at the very top with Gene Kelly, Eleanor Powell, and Astaire. And I wholeheartedly agree.

Vera Ellen DID NOT have anorexia. If you read any authentic biographies on her you'll learn she was fine boned and actually had to eat a substantial diet to maintain her weight. A person who has anorexia will not be able to do this. My twin sister has been anorexic for 53 years. Even having some control over the disease she maintains a weight 20-25 pounds under normal. When the disease wins the battle her weight drops 40 pounds. I wish this rumor would stop. It's not fair to keep saying it. It's like saying all distance runners are anorexic because they're so thin. She was right up there in the category of an extreme athlete. If she truly were anorexic she would never have been able to maintain the dancing career she did.
@johannaholmgren8088
@johannaholmgren8088 Месяц назад
Yes, in my work as an RN, which spanned many years, I saw a fair number of anorexics. Vera-Ellen was naturally slim, and as a dancer (especially the kind of dancer she was) she would have had a hard time keeping weight on. It's certainly possible she had periods where her weight dropped too much, due to personal issues (the death of her only child leading to depression) but she certainly could not have been anorexic or she would have been physically unable to sustain the kind of demands her work required.

Vera Ellen was an artist whose legacy was talent, skill, technique, grace, elegance, and brilliance in her craft. You have managed to diminish her with a photo that isn’t even her, and would never BE her, all for the sake of the potential for added clicks. Vera Ellen did not deserve this, and neither does her audience who know better. Shame on you!

The unique colors and form fitting craftsmanship is without comparison. Today's gowns look like gunny sacks or bed covers. 🤷🏼

Friend, While it is clear that you are illiterate and intelligent soul, your gift for creating complex narrative which really circumvents any true facts or information is nothing short of remarkable. Your ability to manipulate language is so good, so clever, that you're able to take a paragraph or two skirting around a subject without ever hitting the nail on the head. In its way. It's almost admirable, were it? Were it not so frustrating. Has anyone ever told you that you would make an excellent politician? A little simpler, and a little more substantive, and you'll be on your way. A word to the wise!

I think anybody who says Vera Ellen doesn't have eyes but it doesn't take away from her insane talent. I guess prior to this video I never doubted that those high neckline was to hide the anorexia but in many shots with the neckline exposed it doesn't look that unhealthy though any extra clothing would always made her looked more balanced. So I'm a little indecided and I hate being on the fence on any subject matter. I would say that the neckline was no where near as revelling of her condition as her legs in the number Mandy in White Christmas despight this being the highlight number of her career. I just could never enjoy watching White Christmas because it represents all the pretenisons of the 1960's - those boney legs made her look so hautingly and painfully thin and Bing Cosby's son's tell all book as well didn't help his characterisation either.
