Today In History Ella Fitzgerald, dubbed "The First Lady of Song," was born in Newport News, VA, on this date April 25, 1918. Fitzgerald was the most popular female jazz singer in the United States for more than half a century. In her lifetime, she won 13 Grammy awards and sold over 40 million albums. Ella Fitzgerald voice was flexible, wide-ranging, accurate and ageless. She could sing sultry ballads, sweet jazz and imitate every instrument in an orchestra. She worked with all the jazz greats, from Duke Ellington, Count Basie and Nat King Cole, to Frank Sinatra, Dizzy Gillespie and Benny Goodman. (Or rather, some might say all the jazz greats had the pleasure of working with Ella.)

Quando uma boate de Los Angeles se recusou a contratar Ella por causa da cor de sua pele, Marilyn Monroe prometeu ao proprietário que ela se sentaria na primeira fila todas as noites para os shows completos se ele fosse em frente e a contratasse. Ela manteve sua palavra, isso trouxe uma enorme quantidade de publicidade e mudou a trajetória da carreira de Fitzgerald para melhor. Ella disse mais tarde: "Depois disso, nunca mais tive que tocar novamente em um pequeno clube de jazz". . ∎∎∎∎∎∎∎∎∎∎∎∎∎∎∎∎∎∎∎∎∎∎∎∎ PIC: Marilyn with her favorite singer Ella Fitzgerald in a Jazz club in Hollywood: the Tiffany Club on November 19, 1954 Marilyn was a great friend and supporter of Ella Fitzgerald. When an L.A. nightclub refused to hire Ella because of the colour of her skin, Marilyn Monroe promised the owner that she would sit in the front row every night for the full run of shows if he went ahead and booked her. She kept her word, this brought a huge amount of publicity and changed Fitzgerald's career trajectory for the better. Ella later said, "After that, I never had to play a small jazz club ever again." ≪≫≪≫≪≫≪≫≪≫≪≫≪≫≪≫ . ☛ @4everstyle1 40's | 50's & 60's PORTAL . ≪≫≪≫≪≫≪≫≪≫≪≫≪≫≪≫ #4everstyle #EllaFitzgerald #marilynmonroe #normajeane #oldies #50s #60s #40s #vintage #underground #jazz https://www.instagram.com/p/CjYfwREAC7A/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
