Hollywood Squares

overview:
Hollywood Squares is an American panel game show, in which two contestants play tic-tac-toe to win cash and prizes. The "board" for the game is a 3 × 3 vertical stack of open-faced cubes, each occupied by a celebrity seated at a desk and facing the contestants. The stars are asked questions by the host, or "Square-Master", and the contestants judge the veracity of their answers in order to win the game.

Although Hollywood Squares was a legitimate game show, the game largely acted as the background for the show's comedy in the form of joke answers, often given by the stars prior to their "real" answer. The show's writers usually supplied the jokes. In addition, the stars were given question subjects and plausible incorrect answers prior to the show. The show was scripted in this sense, but the gameplay was not. In any case, as host Peter Marshall, the best-known "Square-Master" and the man in whose honor the show's first announcer, Kenny Williams, actually "coined" the term, would explain at the beginning of the Secret Square game, the celebrities were briefed prior to show to help them with bluff answers, but they otherwise heard the actual questions for the first time as they were asked on air.

biography:
Eartha Mae Kitt (née le 17 janvier 1927 à North en Caroline du Sud, et morte le 25 décembre 2008 à Weston dans le Connecticut), surnommée «Miss Kitt», est une danseuse, chanteuse de variétés, de comédies musicales et de jazz, actrice de théâtre et de cinéma américaine.

Elle fut qualifiée de «the most exciting woman in the world» (la femme la plus provocatrice du monde) par Orson Welles.

Eartha Kitt est l'enfant du viol d'Annie Mae Keith alors qu'elle avait 14 ans, d'ascendance afro-américaine et cherokee, par un homme blanc dont on ne connait pas l'identité. Son beau père est William Kitt. Sa mère et son beau père sont des métayers pauvres. Ses parents lui donnent le prénom de Eartha pour remercier la terre (earth) de la bonne récolte précédant sa naissance. Eartha va subir deux abandons successifs, son beau-père quitte sa famille, puis le nouveau compagnon de sa mère force celle-ci à la placer chez des parents alors qu'elle a six ans. Elle et sa demi sœur Anna Pearl, pour payer leurs frais de garde, participent aux récoltes de coton, font la cuisine et du jardinage.

Après bien des tribulations, à ses huit ans, elle est recueillie par sa tante Mamie Lue Riley dans le quartier italo-portoricain de Harlem à Manhattan.

Elle travaille en 1943 avec la troupe de danse de Katherine Dunham et fait des tournées au Mexique, en Amérique du Sud et en Europe. Elle quitte la troupe et s'installe à Paris pour être chanteuse de cabaret (notamment au Bœuf sur le toit) et commence à se faire un nom. La jeune créole, à l'enfance malheureuse, persévère et devient une vedette internationale d'élégance et de sensualité dès les années 1950. En 1950, elle est choisie par Orson Welles pour incarner Hélène de Troie dans Time runs, une adaptation du Docteur Faustus de Christopher Marlowe. L'accueil critique est excellent et Eartha tourne en Allemagne et en Turquie. De retour en Amérique, elle accède à la popularité en jouant dans New faces of 1952, une revue à Broadway, et en sortant ses premiers disques.

Artiste polyvalente à la voix rauque et suave, elle a chanté dans dix langues différentes et s'est produite dans une centaine de pays. En 1953, Eartha Kitt enregistre à New York ses deux plus grands succès avec l'orchestre d'Henri René: C'est si bon le 13 mars et Santa Baby le 5 octobre. En 1954-55, elle est applaudie dans la comédie musicale «Mrs. Patterson» à Broadway puis, en 1957, elle joue au cinéma avec Sidney Poitier dans The Mark of the hawk. En 1967, elle personnifie le personnage de Catwoman dans la populaire série télévisée Batman.

En 1968, elle crée un malaise lors d'un déjeuner organisé à la Maison Blanche par la Première dame, Lady Bird Johnson, en se prononçant contre la guerre du Viêt Nam. Cet incident l'ayant mise à l'index aux États-Unis, elle est contrainte à poursuivre sa carrière à l'étranger jusqu'en 1974. Dans les années 1980, ses tubes font le tour de la planète: «Where Is My Man» (1983), «I Love Men» (1984), «This Is My Life» (1986) et «I Don't Care» (1986). ...
