HOLY BOOBS — Sabrina, The other much-bigger June Wilkinson? 42½DD (Sabrina) vs. 41DD (June)!!!
America gave birth to the popular stereotype of the bosomy dumb blonde through the likes of Marie Wilson and Dagmar. But it was a British bombshell known as Sabrina who carried the image to its ultimate extension, and indeed epitomized the absurd and wonderful sex symbols of the 1950s.
Everything about Sabrina was manufactured – her heavy makeup, platinum hair, long eyelashes, and stop-at-nothing publicity. Everything, that is, except for one of the most extraordinary figures: 42½-17-36, the “½” was vital. She did grow as time went on! Ever immortalized by pinup photographers. In the absence of any known ability other than a genius for self-promotion, she came to rely entirely upon these remarkable attributes for her fame and fortune. They proved sufficient to make her a phenomenon that could not have occurred in any other decade.
Norma Ann Sykes (born 19 May 1936), better known as Sabrina, was a 1950s English glamour model who progressed to a minor movie career. Her main claim to fame was her hourglass figure of prodigious breasts coupled with a tiny 17″ waist. Sabrina had a natural waist-hip ratio of 0.47, from the waist measurement of 17″ and her hips at 36″ when she first started modeling, although she deliberately filled out in later years when advised by several model agencies. During the late 1950s and early 1960s, Sabrina was called: “The British Jayne Mansfield.”
Born in Stockport, Cheshire, she moved to London in 1952 as a sixteen-year-old, and did some nude modelling, the evidence of which she later tried to destroy. In 1955, she was chosen to play a dumb blonde sidekick in Arthur Askey’s new ITV series, Before Your Very Eyes, and this soon made her a household name. The Goon Show scripts are littered with references to her bosom such as “by the measurements of Sabrina!” and “by the sweaters of Sabrina!” British aircrews of the 1950s Royal Air Force dubbed some versions of the Hawker Hunter fighter plane, “Sabrinas” due to two large humps on the underside of the aircraft.
In the late 1950s the British truck manufacturer ERF produced a semi-forward control HGV with a short protruding bonnet – those vehicles were also nicknamed “Sabrinas” because they had “a little more in front.”
She made her motion-picture debut in Stock Car, in 1955. She then appeared in a small role in the 1956 film, Ramsbottom Rides Again. In her third movie role, Blue Murder at St Trinian’s (1957) she had a non-speaking role in which, despite sharing equal billing with the star Alastair Sim on posters and appearing in many publicity stills in school uniform, she was required only to sit up in bed wearing a nightdress, reading a book whilst the action took place around her.
Her penultimate movie role was in the horror movie The Ice House (1969), as a replacement for Jayne Mansfield who had died in a car crash two years before. Her last film was a year later in the western, The Phantom Gunslinger (1970) where she starred alongside the late Troy Donahue.
In 1967, she married Dr Harold Melsheimer, a Hollywood plastic surgeon though they divorced ten years later. She currently lives in Hollywood.
In 1974, US auto safety regulations mandated sturdier impact protection. British Leyland engineers added two large protruding rubber bumper blocks to the front and rear of the MGB, MG Midget and Triumph TR-6 sports cars. These appendages were quickly dubbed “Sabrinas” by the British motoring press, and the nickname stuck.
Brigitte Bardot, BB
Brigitte Anne-Marie Bardot, often referred to by her initials B.B., is a French former actress and singer, and animal rights activist. Famous for portraying sexually emancipated personae with hedonistic lifestyles, she was one of the best known sex symbols of the 1950s and 1960s.
The French model, actress, and singer was the original blonde bombshell began her days in the arts as a dancer. From a very young age, Brigitte was an aspiring ballerina and very dedicated to her craft. At the age of seven she was enrolled at the Cours Hattemer private school and only attended three days a week, the other three days she spent in dance lessons at Madame Bourget’s dance studio. Perhaps this is where all her seemingly effortless grace comes from. Brigitte Bardot’s style, grace, immense talent and her passion for animal rights, has heavily influenced culture as a whole.
Brigitte Bardot was born on September 28, 1934 in Paris, France. Her father had an engineering degree and worked with his father in the family business. Brigitte’s mother encouraged her daughter to take up music and dance, and she proved to be very adept at it. By the time she was 15, Brigitte was trying a modeling career, and found herself in the French magazine “Elle.” Her incredible beauty readily apparent, Brigitte next tried films. In 1952, she appeared on screen for the first time as Javotte Lemoine in Crazy for Love (1952). Two more films followed and it was also the same year she married Roger Vadim. She wanted to marry him when she was 17, but her parents quashed any marriage plans until she turned 18. The union lasted less than four years.
Capitalizing on her success in French films, Brigitte made her first American production in Act of Love (1953) with Kirk Douglas, but she continued to make films in France. Brigitte’s explosive sexuality took the United States by storm, and the effect she had on millions of American men who had not seen a woman like her in a long, long time–if ever–was electric. Rise to the phrase “sex kitten” and fascination of her in the United States consisted of magazines photographs and dubbed over French films–good, bad or indifferent, her films drew audiences–mainly men–into theaters like lemmings. In 1965, she appeared as herself in the American-made Dear Brigitte (1965) with James Stewart (she only appeared in one scene).
Just before she turned 40, Brigitte retired from movies after filming The Edifying and Joyous Story of Colinot (1973). She prefers life outside of stardom. While it enabled her to become internationally famous, it also carried with it annoyances. It was not anything for her to have “fans” enter her house or wander around the grounds of her home in the hopes of getting a glimpse of her or to take something that belonged to her. Paparazzi constantly hounded her with their cameras. She has been so soft-hearted that some people even have taken advantage of her generosity. After her life in the spotlight, Brigitte went on to become a leading spokesperson for animal rights and started the “Foundation Brigitte Bardot” dedicated solely to that cause. Her work in that realm is, perhaps, far greater than any film she could have made. Brigitte has been married to Bernard d’Ormale since 1992 and they reside in St. Tropez.

Sábado, 6 de Junho de 2009, DAN HILL: SOUNDS ELECTRONIC 2
Dan Hill. Sounds Electronic 66/33. Rare 1966 South African Cheesecake cover
Original released on LP CBS ALD 6977
(South Africa, 1966)
Once more, and this time because of the sad departure of the South African maestro last Sunday, I’m going to re-upload all the Sounds Electronic albums.
So, let’s begin, not quite from the start (’cause I don’t have the first one from the series) but with the 2nd volume, from 1966. Still in Mono, but the first one to have a gorgeous pin-up on the cover, which I guess helped to create and develop the great success of the collection. I was convinced that I wouldn’t put my hands on this album again (my father had it in Mozambique and was the first one he got). Thanks to Gideon, a Rato’s friend in South Africa, who discovered and sent it by what he called a snail mail (but it arrived!) I was lucky enough to have it again. After a little polish, in both the cover and the sound, here you have this rare gem from the mid-sixties to begin your Sounds Electronic collection.

“There was a wonderful iconoclastic talent seizing what it saw. I thought it should be let loose. In the fashion pictures of the Fifties, nothing like Klein had happened before. In my opinion he was the first to bring into photography what Léger achieved in art — the glorification of the life and rhythms of the street.” — Alexander Liberman

59 Photos Capture The Art Of Cool – Goodyear developed a tire in 1961 using mounted light bulbs in the wheel rim to make them glow in the dark, but never went into production.
It was in the early 1960s, when Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co. decided to get their “cool” on. They began developing what the referred to as ”the tire of tomorrow.” Goodyear scientists experimented by developing a translucent model with tiny light bulbs mounted inside the wheel rim.
They poured dyed compounds of Neothane synthetic rubber into special molds and heating molasses-like batches to 250 degrees. With synthetic rubber, they could dye the tires any color. Engineers ended up installing 18 tiny bulbs in each rim to make the wheels would shine in the dark and wiring devices supplied electricity to create a glow.
It was all controlled by the driver with a switch inside the car. The control could make the tires blink individually or together.

Katharine McPhee stuns in $68 bra from her new collaboration
Yahoo Lifestyle Canada is committed to finding you the best products at the best prices. We may receive a share from purchases made via links on this page. Pricing and availability are subject to change.
Katharine McPhee Foster has joined forces with MINDD, a brand that designs intimate apparel for “bustier” women — and fans are here for it.
On Tuesday, the 37-year-old took to Instagram to share the news of her collaboration with her more than 870,000 followers. McPhee’s post featured three photos and one short clip of her modelling a few bras from the new collection, as well as a caption explaining the inspiration behind her partnership with MINDD.
“I am beyond excited to finally share that I’ve partnered with MINDD, my favourite intimates brand, which was created by a D+ woman (the immensely talented Helena Kaylin) for D+ women, who, by the way, make up more than 60 per cent of women in the U.S. today, which is wild, right?” she penned.
The singer revealed she began wearing the brand while pregnant with her son, Rennie, and has been wearing MINDD’s products “every day since.”
“My body over the years has definitely changed in sizes in all kinds of ways but this bra will change with you,” she continued. “It’s really innovative. I love that these bras make me truly feel comfortable, supported and sexy at the same time.”
McPhee Foster concluded by announcing that her capsule collaboration with MINND will be available for purchase next month, and includes bras, bodysuits and underwear handpicked by the star.
MINDD Mid V Wirefree Lined Bra
McPhee’s announcement was met with praise by her fans who agree that there aren’t enough bra options for women “with breasts bigger than a B cup.”
“Finally, cute bras for women like us,” one person commented.
“Thank you so much for this! I will be buying,” another person chimed in. “Sixty per cent? Yay for being part of the majority!”
“Thank you. It’s so hard to look for a bra. You’re right, our bodies really change,”a follower wrote. “My kids are grownups, but ’til now I haven’t found the right one. Hope I can try this.”
“OK, I love this partnership,” someone else added. “Obviously, I need this bra.”
McPhee later revealed to People that the collection will be titled Katharine McPhee Foster X MINDD, and how her allegiance to the brand developed.
“It’s comfortable, it’s beautiful, and it’s designed for women who are D+ and above without compromising the way it looks, without compromising beauty and comfort,” McPhee Foster said.
McPhee explained that despite her body fluctuating in size, the bra was extremely adaptable.
“Over my adult years, my body has fluctuated so many times, whether it be time of the month or whether it be my size in jeans, and, as a woman — I think all women can relate to this — your breasts change,” she said. “And this is long-winded, but it’s a bra that you literally never have to change.”
