This alliterate foreign born singer/actress/model from back in the day has never made it much of a secret that she does not like men of color, so her recent actions shouldn't come as a shock. She once refused to present an Oscar in the 1960's because she was going to have to present with this permanent A list mostly movie actor who is a man of color.
This Oscar nominated/Oscar winning actor was probably A+ at the peak of his career as he was a trailblazer and the first of his kind to win a prestigious award. Later, in his career he did more directing. He is very old and largely retired but is still seen as a cultural icon of sort.
This old B+ list mostly movie actor is 3/4 of the way to an EGOT if you count nominations and halfway if you count wins. He has had some memorable roles in tv and movies, but back in the day he was in this movie based on a book.
