Gay Icon Project
In my effort to merge the now-deleted list from the article
Gay icon to the Gay icons category, I have added this page to the category. I engaged in this effort as a "human script", adding everyone from the list to the category, bypassing the fact-checking stage. That is what I am relying on you to do. Please check the article
Gay icon and make a judgment as to whether this person or group fits the category. By distributing this task from the regular editors of one article to the regular editors of several articles, I believe that the task of fact-checking this information can be expedited. Thank you very much.

Dubbing
Real voice?
It's common knowledge that Charisse, not being a singer, was dubbed in most of her films. Does anyone know, however, if she was dubbed in The Silencers? I haven't been able to find out of that's her real voice or not.

I never regarded her a a singer, and could care less. In my view she's the most beautiful dancer in history and the greatest danceer in film history, male or female. I just can't take my eyes off of her when she dances, no matter who she's dancing with. Dancing In The Dark is perhaps my favorite, but she is and always be the essense of female grace, beauty, sensulity and elegance to me. There was simply nobody like her. Bob

Date of birth and age at death
The CBC obit says she was born 8 March 1921, and gives her age as 86, which is mathematically impossible.
CNN says 1922 and 86, which is at least consistent.
Fox news just says she was 86, but doesn’t give a birth year.
The BBC says she was born in 1921, but doesn’t state her age. Both IMDB and IDB say she was born 8 March 1921, which would make her 87. So, where does that leave us? --

Thanks for that. There are a few hits for 1923 on Google, but it seems that if 1921 is out, then the default majority view is 1922. --

The article says Ms. Charisse was a member of Ballet Russes sometime after age 14, and links to the article of that name. But that article says the company stopped performing in 1929, when she would have been seven years old. Was she actually a member of one of the later companies, such as Ballet Russe of Monte Carlo?

Cyd Charisse's last drivers license and California senior citizen's ID are displayed online at Julien's Auctions. For those questioning, the date is clearly shown as 03-08-22 on both.

Thank you for the information. Please provide a link to the license/ID. I searched the Julien's Auctions site and could not find them. --

[4] should take you to one Julien's image. I speculate that she misstated her birthdate at different times for different reasons (both shaving off and adding on), and she won't give it in her Television Academy interview, but this seems to be on multiple ID's.reply
