Lucille's last public appearance was also with Bob Hope in 1989 three months before she passed away. She wasn't even sick then. They were both just as funny.
Actually, she died less than one month after last appearing with Bob Hope. The 61st Academy Awards were filmed on March 29, 1989 (where she and Hope presented), and she died on April 26.
Lucy was about 5'7". I stood right next to her in 1984 at the Museum of TV & Radio and I'm 5'7" too. It's funny but Bette Midler when she was interviewed by Oprah, said Lucy was very tall but 5'7" for a woman isn't very tall at all. Maybe she was influenced by Lucy's tall hair and perhaps high heels she might have been wearing.
@@rtususian No, its that Bette Midler does not even rich 5 feet with heels, 5'2". The husband of Sofia Vergara, he is tall beyond 6 feet, he says Hollywood actors are all short, Robert DeNiro was a midget, ridiculously tiny, so is Scorcesse, but remember film, tv its the big lie, dilution, false messages. And the World praises all these actors, directors as Gods. its Our fault, for me Lucille Ball was in a different class, she had a big heart and gave it to her audience by providing laughter, she did her job, graduated a Master at her craft, and that is why she is an Icon.
@@anyhowe2702 One time I was walking on Christopher Street in NYC in the 1980s and a famous gay porn star Clay Russell was walking on the street and I couldn't believe how short he was! He seemed like 6'4" in the movies, but he was what looked like about 5'9" or so.
The ending of this clip is pretty rare that Bob and Lucy are on stage and talking fairly seriously without jokes every ten seconds.
You know it’s good when Lucille Ball starts laughing and can barely hold it together😂😂😂
Forever and always love for Lucy!❤
Happy birthday Lucy!!

I love her voice
I used to sponsor a kid in Bangladesh. I mentioned Lucy and Ethel in the chocolate factory in a letter. He wrote back that he loved the story.
She and Vivian Vance were so tall.

My parents generation was the best
Her voice sounds like the beginning of "Spongebob Squarepants ".. you know I'm right!...like my post if you hear the resemblance
Oh, her big wigs....they were something else.
