“I was lonely, but I have no regrets. I have loved, cried, been mad with happiness. I have won and I have lost.” -Anita Ekberg… Watch Audrey Hepburn ~ the SCANDALOUS “good girl” & Givenchy's muse… NEXT.. ua-cam.com/video/nSTrcoPpMDo/v-deo.html
Strong lady💪 rest in power Anita🙏
Thank you, Karine for doing my reccomendation of Anita. I appreciate it, I know you have a long list of people to do. Thank you.
I’m just now learning of her but from what you’ve told us, it seems Anita didn’t want to be coerced into sleeping with directors. She wanted to be sexy and provocative on her own terms for her own monetary gain, without the control from others. I’m not saying she was right or wrong to create the scandals, but I’m so glad she rejected those predatory men😖
Just what I was about to write. Woman is sensual thing. That doesnt mean that everyone can use her because of that. Femininity is not a tool for men to use. I liked how brave she used it and still managed to reject men. Respect! 💯
It's a HUGE difference between HER CHOOSING to bear her body publicly and some creepy producer FORCING her to physically pleasure him. Just because she showed her body off doesn't give ANYONE the right to have their way with her against her will.
You speak the truth, PREACH🙌🙌🙌
Everyone knows the obvious but let’s face it there’s hundreds of beautiful women like that the directors are going to give the job to the one that blows them just like you’d give the job to the guy that fucking folds you it’s obviously creepy and predatory but stating the obvious isn’t going to change anything
Very well said: akin to people, men AND women, who believe because a woman *chooses* to dress provocatively, she deserves to be the r*ped. Know your power. 🦋
👍🏻👌🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻Indeed,👌🏻well said❗
@@j36793 I would not "give the job to the one who folds" me. Don't act like that's a normal thing everyone does. It's not.
Speaking up is better than keeping silent. And things ARE changing bc enough people are speaking up.
She refused to sleep around with everybody, that's why she wasn't a bigger star.
I respect her even more now.
Good for her, Hollywood love making pretty women out of ho ho hos. When a men see beautiful women...they think they are entitled to them. So kudos to her.
@Kat Smith
I respectfully disagree...She seemed to only speak about sensual harassment when it benefited her or when she couldn't benefit from it.... sounds like one of another one of those hollyweird stars who didn't become as successful as she was "supposed" to be regardless of how hard she worked or how much she "got along", with directors as well... so blamed it on her not being to become as famous because she wasn't doing what everyone else did, when she knows she did it herself.
@@incognito3599 what the fuck are you writing lol 😂😂😂,it's english not your first language?
@@incognito3599 THANK YOU!!
I am shocked you didn’t talk about her shooting a bow and arrow at paparazzi’s who caught her kissing her married producer/director. There are photos online still and yes she shot them with it 😂😂😂😂
She was very curvy, far from skinny. I love that she embraced her curves, and wasn't self-conscious about it.
Swedes as I remember decades ago, we’re sexually liberal. Therefore, whilst she was for free spirited sexuality, she was very against people being forced to have sex
She has a touch of weirdly masculine in her facial features.
Wow.. I never even knew she existed until today 🥹 she was stunning ❤ what a story!
In my film class, I saw her in La docle vita and I was mesmerized.
Breathtaking on screen 😍
Sounds like Anita enjoyed her sexuality as a form of control but when people tried to control her with it, she was not having it.
Her beauty was a double edged sword.😬
For women, it always is. And the more beautiful you are the harder you fall once you hit 35.
@@pbohearn Well that's just mysoginistic.
@@pbohearn there are beautiful women at 35 that you’d swear looks like they are not even 23. They do everything to stay young and some do it right.
@@nannaed7833 I would have to agree with you.💞💞💞
@@pbohearn aging is hard for everybody. I’m 47 going on 48. Hitting the wall is not an option for me. I choose to age gracefully. It’s all about self respect.
3:49-4:38
DAMNNN!! I was just about to say I'm glad she stood her ground, because there were so many actresses back then that would do anyting for game and a lead role, or a role period.
Awesome! She reminds me of a mix between Margot Robbie and Lucille Ball. Beautiful.
I see a little Jessica Lange as well
I believe it was all about control for her. She was against the sexism in Hollywood but did the opposite on her terms. She was bold, but that's what made her iconic.
As a Swede I feel it's a shame she has not been given more attention for her dedication to acting and film. She was and will always be iconic. In her later years it seems like she was forgotten...I find that quite tragic. I saw the film about her life and when she died I was more than surprised to see so few participants on her funeral in Italy. In my opinion she should have had a grand funeral for the whole world to see. after the Italian funeral she was shipped to Sweden... Was that her will?
Well, Thank you for research on Anita Ekberg and for reminding us of a selfrelient, strong, passionate and true actress with unwordly beauty!!👏❤️👏🌟 La Grande Belezza!!
I appreciate your videos and all the time and research you put into it! Born and raised in Sweden, I've heard Anita's name being mentioned, but never really knew anything about her 😯 Thank you so much for keeping these iconic film stars alive trough your amazing videos! 😊 ❤
O wow,she reminds me of Anna Nicole 👀(look-wise)
I will always associate her with Ursula Andress, even if the only things they had in common were that they were both Intelligent and blond, and super attractive. They both lived in Rome when the city was a very aspirational place to live, but this is not the case anymore. You could argue that Gina Lollobrigida did the same. Still, she was a native Italian and somehow controversial in her family and artistic choices ( mind that I m Gina's biggest fan, but I m not blind about her missteps, having read about her all of my -almost- 60 years of life, and reasoning about what her son told about her). Do you know who's still comparable to these excellent women? Heather Parisi, an American who found success in Italy, like Lola Falana, but you probably don't know her. She's a great self-reliant woman who still has the audience's love, but somehow she's not active anymore, even if she's younger than Madonna en much, much, much more talented than her. Just another Starsystem trik I will never understand.
She kinda give me kim kardashian vibes with always wanting attention or publicity even if its embarrassing or even planned. However she is talented and I can see her frustration with having talent but not getting where she should've been because she didn't want to sleep around
Another great video ❤
You lost your point when you brought up KK.
@@endiadj how?
She was captivating in "La Dolce Vita." Then, nothing that I remember. Seems she didn't want to put in the work, like Marilyn Monroe, to become a serious actress. She wanted it both ways. Flaunted her beauty and sex appeal yet didn't pursue the dramatic roles. Imo, she basked in the limelight as a "personality" rather than an actress. Loved the glitz and glamour but not the hard work. In today's world, she might have made big bucks with a clothing line, fragrance, etc. Like Kim Kardashian. Thanks, Karine, for your portrait of this interesting woman. ❤❤
I don’t think she was hypocritical because there’s a HUGE difference between doing something on your own terms and having a room filled with male execs demanding it of you.
Hey Karine your new era photos are gorgeous ❤️
Thank you Sue ♥️♥️
@@KarineAlourde🙏
This woman is absolutely beautiful. Nor does she comes off arrogant, overall. Thanks for sharing this, Karine.
The difference is she did naughty on her OWN TERMS.
If a man acted with her level of exuberance, he'd be praised, but not a beautiful woman like Anita. The double standard is tiresome.
I don't think she's that beautiful tbh.
Omg I love your videos.. they take me to another place . Great stress reliever. Please keep up the videos!
Keep up the good work sis!!❤️❤️❤️
Thank you sis ♥️♥️♥️
What an incredible Swedish beauty! Wow..
I'm yet to see a Anita Ekberg movie. Great for her for not sleeping around (with everyone). But do one on JOAN COLLINS and LINDA EVANS.
She reminds me of Marilyn Monroe and Jane Mansfield
Hi Karine, great video as always. I would love for you to do a video on Maribel Arrieta from El Salvador, my country. She represented El Salvador in 1955 in long beach. I haven't really been able to find much about her. I hope you look into her and make a video. Specially because El Salvador is very small and we don't ever really get to hear much about my beautiful country. We are more than being labeled dangerous. Specially now with our president that has turned everything around for us. TYIA
She looked so much like Margot Robbie, except w/ curves.
Learned something new with every video you post ❤!
Hopefully you’re able to do a Paul Newman video soon 👌🏾
Coming soon! ❤❤
5:11-5:30
Of course it was orchestrated. They weren't having wardrobe malfunctions back then, because clothes were of MUCH better quality than they are now. Just look at Fashion Nova, Rainbow, Citi Trends, and It's Fashion. You can only wear those clothes once. It's a total waste of money. You might as well invest in better quality brands of clothing.
So true. I have a dress my Mother bought back in the 1950's and it is so well made. Beautiful fabric that just drapes on the wearer. You can't find fabric like that any more. It is 70 years old and still looks brand new. Most of the clothes you buy today start falling apart after a few washings. I love the beautiful clothes from the past.
@@lizvogler4238 Yeah they fall apart. I think when they used to hand wash back in the day was the best way. A washing machine destroys clothes. You damn near have to put everything in the cleaners. I love clothes from the past as well. You have a family heirloom on your hands. 😊
Reminds me of Sharon Stone.....To me, Anita was a front-line feminist during the 50s and 60s...she was 1 of the first to break untold rules.
I respectfully disagree...She seemed to only speak about sensual harassment when it benefited her or when she couldn't benefit from it.... sounds like one of another one of those hollyweird stars who didn't become as successful as she was "supposed" to be regardless of how hard she worked or how much she "got along", with directors as well... so blamed it on her not being to become as famous because she wasn't doing what everyone else did, when she knows she did it herself.
@@incognito3599 that is just you condoning the misogyny and sexual servitude of the Hollywood system. She had a right to have control of her sexuality and career. That pisses some people off, doesn't it😂
She reminds me of blanche from golden girls. She liked sex but wouldnt do it if she didnt want to.
Also i feel like she was like well i cant get rid of this i might as well lean into it
Maybe the infamous casting couch is why Anita had no motivation to work hard for the studio. And things worked out - because she had her most iconic film screens with Felini in Italy.
Wow, I love Fellini's La Dolce Vita and have it on dvd, but never did I know about Anita Ekberg being outspoken and such a powerhouse! She is sooo awesome and truly a legend. I put my dad onto the channel with these videos and watching this one today he said about the channel "I'm so glad she exists to shine a light on these figures!"
I respectfully disagree with you about questioning/criticizing Ms. Eckberg‘s approach to Hollywood in order to become a star. There’s a difference between even posing for playboy or nude modeling or appearing in movies, with a scantily dressed appearance, or even showing your breasts or etc., and being willing to have sex with a producer under pressure in order to get a good job! Hollywood has been pushing beautiful women since it started in the sexiest ways and finally there was a film code that was developed just so that they had boundaries about how far they could go, but the executives pushed those boundaries, and it was an expectation, and the fans wanted to see it and, many actresses didn’t disagree with it. They were willing to look sexy for the fans, that’s what sold magazines. but that’s completely different from feeling like you have to have sex with a producer in order to get a part! Or constantly being leered at or joked about or being touched in a way that’s uncomfortable; it was just part of the environment. That stuff is disgusting and really almost criminal. If not criminal. that’s where “me too” came from.
Have you done a video on French bombshell Bridgette Bardot? And would you compare her at all with 90's bombshell Pamela Anderson?? Thank you!!
She had prettiest eyes!!!❤
Very beautiful eyes
She wanted it to be her idea,
not the desire of other men.
God bless Anita Ekberg, now forever young and beautiful for all eternity in God's rose garden amen🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹.
In those days the motto was, "There's no such thing as bad publicity". Keeping your name and image in front of the public was top priority. Not to mention, if they didn't it could all end.
She knew what it takes to become known, that is why it took her years to get her first movie roles after arriving to the US. She said that she has never seen what people see in her, but late in her life she did admit that she was indeed beautiful. The thing is, she never seemed to be ambitious, she was never looking after movie roles, she was given them. As Raquel Welch said, when you come to Hollywood and you got the LOOK you get things offered and sometimes it works against you because you don't get valued beyond your looks. And Ekberg was honest - she would tell to your face if she didn't like you.
Great Channel: Keep it up! ✨
Could you do profiles of Inger Stevens and Carole Landis?
Although, she was completely against sleeping with producers, she still had her own mind. She showed the world her body, because, she wanted to show her all. Such a beautiful lady 😍
Anita Ekberg, the Swedish, Marilyn Monroe of the 50s, Ann-Margret, the Swedish, Marilyn Monroe of the 60s, Marilyn Monroe, the American, Marilyn Monroe, forever!
I am Swedish!☺
Karine, love your videos! Great work! PS : The correct pronuciation of the Italian word dolce is dol-CHAY not dol-SAY. In Italian "ce or "ci" is pronounced w a hard "c" such as in "church" "cherry" "cha cha" -- therefore the legendary movie in which Ekberg wades thru the Fontana di Trevi in a gorgeous black gown is called La Dol-CHAY Vita!. Keep up the great work! Ciao!
no no... its not DOL CHAY.... its DOL CHE ....no - AY at the end. just A.
Sublime! Une vraie femme sexy,elle affolait les hommes!,,comme je les comprends,elle avait tout pour elle! 💕💕
She was so pretty ❤😍
(Off topic) I ADORE you...(ON TOPIC) ANITA IS THE EPITOME OF BEAUTIFUL BLONDE...Stellar woman and gifted actress ❤❤❤
She was absolutely stunning in "Zarak" next to Victor Mature.
Great video. Anita is stunning.
A naturally gorgeous lady. I remember her well. Thanks so much for the tribute. No plastic surgery here. Love your tributes, Karine.
Your videos are the best!
Under the Tuscan sun with Diane Lane,the pay homage to Anita throughout the movie..if you haven't seen it,u would like it!
I have a question for you, Mrs. Karine Alourude: do you read/speak Italian? How I wish you could!
She was about liberation and sexual freedom, also with values where it was unacceptable to force women to have sexual relations. - answer to your question… 🙄
4:57
I love this lavender dress. If she was frequently featured in Playboy I already know what time it is. 🥴 She played on the public's tops, because she more than likely was getting down like the rest. 😒😔
I agree...She seemed to only speak about sensual harassment when it benefited her or when she couldn't benefit from it.... sounds like one of another one of those hollyweird stars who didn't become as successful as she was "supposed" to be regardless of how hard she worked or how much she "got along", with directors as well... so blamed it on her not being to become as famous because she wasn't doing what everyone else did, when she knows she did it herself.
@@incognito3599 They become bitter me too broads
She looks similar to the actress Jennifer Morrison, from the television series, “Once Upon a Time.”
Now i have to put her above monica Bellucci, Jennifer conelly in the list of gorgeousness
I can't afford your circle friend ship ....but I sure do love ❤️ your way of d
Speaking about the golden ages of Hollywood
Very pretty!❤
Would love to see/hear more of our legendary queens (no interest in Shesau) when WE are the standard of the Creator's beauty. Js
My deceased husband had a crush on her when he was a teenager and into his twenties before I knew him, as I am sure many men did.
But once he met me, I won him over her!
Well at least in this case, she didn't get the man in the end. HA HA!
La dolce vita, was epic. But like this post ses, she was a super strong woman, in a mans world, she made her own fame on her terms
She was in control of her sexuality and independent!!!
Gorgeous!!
The Italians seem to accept all of these beautiful, smart, sensual women.
These clothes are to die for!
We had some good times as siblings, playing board games etc.
Elle est magnifique🧚
Women have the right to take control of their sensuality or their persona but that doesn’t make it right to be preyed on that’s not an invitation. She beautiful and I love her talent and fashions 💎💜💗
It's not pronounced Dol-say it is doll-ch-ay (chay as day).
Could you do the french actress and Godard muse Anna Karina
Can you do one on Esther Williams?
Some girls have all the luck
I wouldn't want the fame. I want the fortune, so I don't consider them lucky no celebrities. Well maybe the best of the best athletes for their incredible genetic abilities. I think they're BLESSED!!
@@louisianacookingwithkayagreed
Voluptuous. Glamorous. Sophisticated. And really really sexy! She had that certain unmistakable star quality in spades. I miss that type of do or die glamour and sensational beauty.
8:07
Wow I love love her makeup here.
14:42
Back then we always find out they were tomboys.
In some of her pictures, when she's looking sideways, she reminds me of Sofia Loren.
I always , been a ‘Golden Movie Classic Fan’ I never knew much about ‘Anita Eckberg’ I did hear rumours about her lifestyle? Was Anita , a Bisexual?
So she was a clout chaser, but she actually had talent
A Perfect 10!
Yes. They complained but didn’t stay true to their “principals.”
Something about her reminds me of Anna Nicole Smith
Blonde, curvaceous and tall.
14:49-14:57
I figured she was an animal lover, when I seen all those photos of her with animals.
We need a breakdown of marlon Brando
Hello Karine, make a video about the actress Lida Baarova 💃👍
She'd be perfect today with all those publicity stunts and staged photo incidents
Sorry, I don't think any of these stunts mentioned here or her affairs have anything to do with the sexual exploitation she spoke against.
You can take part in publicity stunts of any kind or have affairs with whoever .. That doesn't give anyone the right to force you to sleep with them in exchange for work..
Consent is the key word.
I honestly don't see the so called hypocrisy.
She spoke about Americans being obsessed with breast while also exposing her breast to paparazzi for publicity… yeah that’s a little hypocritical. In no way was I saying men wanting to sleep with her was the hypocrisy. I was speaking on her playing on the fetlshes that she spoke against for gain.
@@KarineAlourde oh ok, then there is a point to be made.
Because you were speaking about some producer who wanted her to "earn" a role but she refused to sleep with him and how she was vocal about itt, then immediately after you talked about how Amita may have played into this culture and thus, was hypocritical.. I think I did bad math. Apologies.
@@fashionearrings I wish I clarified in the video cause I see what you’re saying. I don’t want people to think that’s what I was saying at all 😭😭
@@KarineAlourde I understood Exactly what you were saying
@@fashionearrings That was big of you 💙🤞🏾
She reminds me of sofia vergara, 😍
Hey friends I'm on replay. I enjoy your channel and u are beautiful 🌟
