- During the Golden Age of Hollywood, there were few stars who rivaled Ginger Rogers. She was an incredibly gifted dancer with singing and acting skills to match. Rogers was also Fred Astaire’s favorite dance partner. And though the Oscar-winner dominated the silver screen, TV sets, and stages, she did so much more beyond performing. She was also a skilled tennis player, an avid angler, an honorary Navy Admiral, and more! Indeed, it seems like the actor accomplished a lot during her life. Want to know more? This is the untold truth of Ginger Rogers.

What was your favorite performance by Ginger Rogers?
Kitty Foile and Stage Door.
@@mh.4664 Ginger wasn't even the big star in Stage Door, but it's such a blockbuster cast, and to see her on screen with Lucille Ball is a real kick. Because the both came uomin the studio system together. They all chew the scenery in their own special ways. It's like RKOs sampler of big talent, many memorable performances. Hepburn was the big star but I think all of the ladies got their turn in the spotlight. It's just a great movie. I've probably seen it 20 times. It never gets old. Yeah, it's a soap opera, and it's a formula chic flick, but it's also great fun, with a lot of rising stars.
Then there's Kitty Foyle, Ginger really got to show us her acting chops in that movie, truly deserved her best actress Oscar.
The musicals with Fred are almost indistinguishable from each other, great dancing, great music, silly plots , a bucket of popcorn and hang your brain at the door, films for when yoy want to be entertained without thinking. I think American cinema from the 1930s will never go out of style.

Ginger Rogers was an incredibly talented and hard working actress.
She made you believe she was the character she was portraying in the film.
I am thankful for being alive during the later half of her career. She was a truly gifted performer.
👍🏿
The Charleston contest she won that started her career took place in Fort Worth Texas. The second place winner of that same contest was Mary Martin of broadway fame
Just remember what she said…she could do everything that Fred Astaire could do, but backwards and in heels!
Close study of her work doesn't really support that, but she was very talented and is still my favorite Astaire/co-star chemistry.
Which is not true..he is the choreographer and does a lot more than her in their dancing...but he is such a genius that he makes look the dancing easy...and he always let space to all of his partners!
She didn't say that. It was a joke made in a comic strip. And, if anyone knows anything about dancing, or is even just a keen observer, is patently untrue and very unfair to Astaire.
I'll bet she could. She loved dancing better than he did. To him it was a job. He was great at but still a job. From what I've gathered...
Ive heard this before and i think it was brilliant! Thanks for reminding me.
the devine
ms rogers.. 😃
so thankful my grandparents
introduced us all to her &
mr astaire. 😁
👏🏻👏🏼👏🏽👏🏾👏🏿
now all of our children are fluent in their movies.
a privilege to watch & learn about her 😆
🇦🇺✌🏿✌🏾✌🏽✌🏼✌🏻🇦🇺
She was so beautiful, with such grace and style.
I'm 72 and have loved Fred Astaires dancing since my early 20s. I've seen all of his films and know much about him. I think that Ginger Rogers was his best dancing partner but I didn't know much about her. This was an excellent production and presentation. Thank you so much.
My favorite film of Ginger Rogers was The Gay Divorcee 1934, dancing with Fred Astaire to Night and Day. Divine!!!! She was gorgeous in that movie and the songs were great.
I have that movie. I love it! I’ve watched it at least 30 times. I remember I had the movie (VHS) next to my television along with many other movies that I owned. My friends came to my house who knew nothing about old movies. They saw the title The Gay Divorce and they wanted to watch it really bad. This was in the early 2000s. They didn’t know that gay meant happy back then. They thought it was a movie about two men divorcing. 😂
@@Oliviux78 Ha ha! Funny. I don't know how many times I've watched The Gay Divorcee, but 30 times sounds reasonable.
@@catlover34fla
I have a huge collection of her movies she is one of my favorite movie stars! I love all of her movies with Fred Astaire! I also love heart beat and the major and the minor♥️
Me too! Her movies are fun
hey you. do you collect physical copies or digital? or do you watch them on streaming platforms? can you recommend me places/way to get/watch her movies or old movies in general? thank you so much. have a great day
I am impressed by this gifted lady. 💝
Ginger could do it all GREAT DANCER.....Dramatic Actress.....Comedic Actress !!!!
Ginger Rogers and Barbara Stanwyck are my favorite old Hollywood movie stars. I don't think anyone worked harder rhan Ginger Rogers. She was Fred's equal on the dance floor but a much better singer and actor, with a wide range.
Mark Richards
Astaire was an acrobatic dancer who was always watching his and his partner's feet to check on them. The very idea that he would force his partners to dance for hours and blooding their shoes is abhorrent!
@@sage1875 Fred was a great dancer and choreographer. He was mediocre at best as an actor and singer. From what I've read, some performers loved working with, others did not. I won't deny his brilliance and his legacy. He was the best at one thing. I think that old studio system turned out great pictures but demanded outrageous commitment from artists under contract. It's probably not fair to blame the perfectionism on the dancer/choreographer. It was a bad system with harsh work requirements.
Rogers and Stanwyck are my two favorite actresses from the Golden age as well! Rogers was underrated as a comedic actress. (side note: Astaire had almost zero comedic talent, IMO)
Ginger rogers a classy lady gorgeous she looked fabulous in all her costumes an amazing talent 😁🇨🇦🇨🇦
Next time I go to a bar I'm gonna order a Ginger Rogers! : D I'm also inspired by her liquor free life! And I think it's great she made the respectable choice not to have a kid when she wanted to devote herself to her career. She realized it was one or the other, Good on her!
Roger that. It got a little ginger flavor in it.
Ginger was a hugely talented beautiful actress and dancer, a true one off. ❤
from an era where films were fun and actors actually had real talent
Many films are more serious now and the actors are superbly talented. Their acting skills are amazing.
The end of the "triple threat" era does feel like a loss. Also, the sheer volume and diversity of movies and music these days means that we lost the bonding experience of most of us seeing the same movies. It was at least a good ice-breaker. Now it's really only thanks to the Academy Wards, Emmys, Netflix, and the Golden Globes that we have some of that experience now.
She was really too talented
I believe she deserves more beautiful life
Really cool thank you for the upload

Thanks for sharing 👍😀
Thank you for such an interesting video.
Ginger was Wonderful.
I met her in the 1960s.
She was doing Hello Dolly
On the road.
RIP
cute
surprised the story of her kidnapping by her father was not mentioned
Always wondered why the theater in Medford was named after her. Never knew she actually lived here.
I've heard she actually performed there when she was very young and starting her career.
Very interesting! Thanks!
Interesting.
Thank you.
Peace💕🇺🇲
Follow the Fleet. My favorite Astair-Rogers movie!
When she was at her peak she was terrific. But her mother, who was by all accounts a nightmare, got between her and every husband she had.
I hope they can reopen that Ginger Roger's Museum I would most definitely go!!I know that woman they showed in the clip😊She is a super nice hard working woman.She told me years ago at a chimney repair class that her and her husband were getting into doing Air B&B ,she never told me any of them wear gonna be cool museums of old Hollywood starlets!That is so cool!
When I was a kid, my mother let me occasionally look through the scrapbooks she had made (and kept) as a young girl. I thought Ginger was so pretty . Then I saw the movies with Fred, and saw how lithe and graceful she was. I think those movies belong in The Smithsonian.
Where is the ‘untold’ truth so prominent in the title? You have said nothing that has not already been ‘told’ already or anything that a Ginger Rogers fan wouldn’t already know.
👍💞👏💖👏💞👍
💐GingerRogers💐
👍💞👏💖👏💞👍
Why is there a photo from Roadside Antiques in the video?
Reopen the museum,such an unbelievable entertainer doesn’t deserve that .They pay more attention to criminals turned celebrities.
Good for Ginger that she had good morals! That is a rarity with all the ho's and horn dogs in Hollyweird sleeping around like a bunch of alley cats! Ginger, what a beautiful talented woman!
........ and five marriages isn't sleeping around?
I'm glad ginger made the right choice for herself to be childfree I had know idea about this
0:09 What TV show or movie is this clip of Douglas Fairbanks Jr. and Ginger Rogers from? It looks like a show from the early 50s.
That was from an episode of The Love Boat, around 1980.
The story abt blood in dance shoes bc of overwork, Ann Miller told the same story. Can’t remember interviewer or show.
Primrose Path she was so incredible and vulnerable. Love at first sight for me
We've gone from class to crass and slaps
Happy Birthday Ginger, 111 years old today. Its appropriate that 1-1-1 appears as that represents that you are number 1 as the most gifted star EVER to grace the silver screen. But don't take my word for it, check out the survey conducted by UCLA, produced in 2019, of EVERY female actress that ever lived, including Katharine Hepburn, Bette Davis, Meryl Streep, Marilyn Munro and the rest of the rest! God Bless Ginger, I bet you're smiling now! !'m now settling down to watch, in my opinion, your 3 best movies without Fred Astaire, Kitty Foyle, Major and the Minor, Roxie Hart.
💗
2022 can get her book, ginger my story, I recently bought it, interesting.
We're in the money!
Women looked so angelic back then😮
Btr 💃than Fred!
Well, one thing I learned from this is that I won't ever be able to watch "Swing Time" without being distracted by trying to see if she looks like she's in pain.
In movies, Ginger was dressed in very chic and tasteful outfits - on her own, though, she chose clothes that ranged from gaudy to almost weird, which is a strange contradiction.
to be a woman in hollywood in those days was to be a slave.
Still is
You have a picture of the wrong William Marshall.
The guy narrating this video is hot!!
😂 Haha yeah! I didn't notice till I saw your comment then had to rewind and have a look!
Your image of her last husband William Marshall has the wrong William Marshall (1917-1994)....
Ginger rogers and Fred Astaire
Da jeg var 3,fik de mig til at danse🎉🎉🎉😊
'her feet hurt'.........yeah she wore HIGH HEELS
She wasn't married to Blacula, she was married to William Marshall the actor/singer
Kitty Foyle never impressed me as a story, nor did Ginger Roger's performance therein impress me. Loved her singing and dancing.
They should have put high heels on Fred Astaire...
W😱W- 2 👀 Dolly/Mame! 🎭
My all time favorite star from the Golden Age. A real beauty , she was also a pious Republican, tho not as bad as Loretta Young. Astair would not be interested in Ginger, or any women.
Fred Astaire married Phyllis in 1933. She died in 1954. He was loyal to her throughout. Astaire married Robyn Smith in 1980. He died in '87.
I think Fred Astaire dance Joan Crawford first short time then Ginger Rogers, also other few ladies.
Parla troppo in fretta ed il mio inglese purtroppo non è all'altezza
That's what dancers do, go backwards and in heels. Been there done that
I think every guy wanted to marry her.. I said marry.
Can't recall who said it but, "Ginger Rogers did the same dance Fred Astaire did and she did it backwards and in high heels.
On the darker side, Lucille Ball was always losing big parts to other women. She was talking with Ginger Roger's mother and the problem she was having getting parts.
Roger's mother replied, "I'll tell you what I told my daughter. If you want the part you have to get in bed with the producer."
Astaire was a "confirmed bachelor"
Until he got so old he needed a caretaker 1/2 his age and married her.
No, Fred Astaire married Phyllis in 1933. She died in 1954. Astaire married Robyn Smith in 1980. Astaire died in 1987.
He was married to Phyllis, who was jealous of Ginger and attended every filming session.
Christian Scientists? Is that Scientology?
No. Google the difference between the two and you'll find the basics easily. It is also different than traditional Christianity.
@@kennethgoin628 oh okay, i thought that was the same thing, thank you I will google
No they are different
That's not her fifth husband. Same name. Simple Google search could've corrected that error.
I was about to post the same thing. The picture was not of her husband
wrong William Marshall shown in the video.
All thise black & white movies make light colours all look white, & was she a red head? I told she had blond hair.
She had reddish brown hair, but it was accidentally dyed blonde by the studio in the early 1930s and she kept it that way until WWII. She went back to being a brunette until the mid 1940s. Then her hair colored varied. Strawberry Blonde, to grey, to Blonde again. And some various in between shades along the way. It was bleach blonde towards the end of her life.
Are cookies ginger snaps named after her?
WERE GINGER & RITA HAYWORTH COUSINS?
Only by marriage. I believe it was Ginger's aunt married to Rita's uncle.
Why did she change her birth name?
Yeah, okay.
Do you work out? 😂
She married Blacula? Did I here that right?
Ginger Rogers is a Christian scientist? Is that also the religion of movie legend Jean Harlow? I wonder what kind of denomination is this? In my country, there are no Christian scientists
Jean Harlow's mother called herself a Christian Scientist, but her daughter did not.
It sure is progressive. Considering science proves there is a true creator yet the cabalist elite that run everything lie & kill to keep it a secret.
Fred 😝👀🤢
I’m gay🎉
Hahaaaa at 0.38min not sure why u hv to show yourself....for that secs of fame. Hahahahaaa. Bcos this type of video its usually just voice over
she was a conservative republican
Amazing because she had diabetes 1 all her life.
Not true
rightwing anti communist
Fred’s. Best dancing partner was sister adele
Ginger was stunning and an excellent actress 'Primrose Path' for instance. Fred was quoted later in life saying that 'Ginger really sold the films they made together'.
Although he considered Rita Hayworth his best dance partner he knew all too well that Ginger was the more talented actress above and beyond all the others and gave her credit for the success of their 10 films.
Her movies okay but I never liked her. My favorite dancer was Sid Cyress.
The French actress was called Cyd Charisse.
Then why watch this??
@deegeraghty9426
Cyd was an American Dancer.
Who are these random people you keep posting?!
Changing one's birth name is like slapping your parents in the face. It's disrespectful and unnecessary. This is especially true if it's done for the anticipation of greater recognition and or financial gain.
Another century- almost inconceivable- like an alternative universe. American culture fading into obscurity. 🇺🇸🪓🪵
