Cyd Charisse is the epitome of aging gracefully and beautifully! And what an extraordinary talent! I believe Tony and Cyd were married for 60 years or so.
Wow...what an introduction by her husband...made me cry a little bit!! I love Cyd and her husband Tony Martin...beautiful couple!! Her legs still looked FABULOUS!!
She deserved more fame. She’s not a household name like Marilyn or Debbie Reynolds’s, Should be. That is the sexiest woman at that age you’ll ever see her body looks almost exactly like it did in the 50’s
Very true!!! she was a wonderful dancer, beautiful looking, but I watched a movie documentary and a lot of the film crews found her very perfession, but a cold character. 🐶🐶🐶🐶
@@mariaevans7811 As long as she wasn't cold to Tony is what matters. She always had that aloof demeanor in movies, so maybe she was just staying in character. Maybe she was just shy and it came off as cold. How many Playboy playmates said they were shy growing up. Maybe dancing was her way of expressing herself, rather than vocally. Maybe that's why she was attracted to Tony because he express himself vocally. I'm just theorizing here.
@Blythe Girl Well, if she was happily married she wouldn't be putting out those vibes anyway, I would assume. Unless she was a married version of Ado Annie. I remember in the 70s when Farrah Fawcett was the hottest female celebrity, and always complained that she didn't have any privacy. One commentator pointed out that while complaining about this, she did nothing to be less flamboyant and tone down or hide herself.
@Blythe Girl I believe Farah's last relationship, with Ryan O'Neal was a good one. I don't know that it was so much that Farrah self-destructed but that her controlling husband at the time, Lee Majors, steered her wrong to break her Charlie's Angels contract after one year, and she was blacklisted for a while, but she did good work later in TV movies. I don't know much about her son. I saw her live once in the early 1980s at the Burt Reynolds dinner theater in Florida, her first stage acting, in Butterflies Are Free, with Bruce Davison, in the part Goldie Hawn played in the movie, and as a local critic said, she had a bright sunshiney aura on stage, which is true, and she was very good. There are some celebrities who seem to thrive in the spotlight, and even become president.
WOW, I can't believe she is 62 here. She is the most amazing talent of all time and still looks amazing at 62 and still can dance and is extremely flexible. A truly amazing woman.
Keeping active saved her life and she and Tony lived a long time. Fred Astair was active even after he retired, up till he reached 82, and Gene Kelly. Debbie Reynold's, poor soul, who lost her daughter the next day couldn't take living with out her Carrie, she was active, in acting and dancing in Vegas, and other towns. Staying active is the key to life. Sitting all day long behind a computer or on a tablet takes away life. Unless your a shut in a some nursing hole, and can't escape.
@Pumpup Jam Hey its not just “sitting behind a computer” - plenty of people were sitting on their behind before computers. TV, just doin nothin. But I agree about ACTIVITY!! Its fun too!!
What a beautiful couple. She was doing this at 62 years of age. He was 72 when this was recorded. He performed up until he was 95, even after she had passed away in 2008. There just isn't any talent like this any longer. Thanks for posting. Please find more.
Amazing that he went on performing even as late as 1984. If one's honest, he sounds terrible here...he can barely stay in tune...his voice a shell of it's former self. At least Cyd could still kick her legs up high...
This was a very remarkable long-lasting couple. they were truly life-long companions. Cyd is amazing here at past 60 and looking absolutely gorgeous and with the energy and verve of a 20 year old !
I'm watching Cyd Charisse dance and realize that she is dancing with Jerry Mitchell. I had the privilege of dancing with Jerry Mitchell in the Coca Cola Industrial in Atlanta, GA choreographed by the late Michael Peters. Super nice, sincere guy and I learned a lot from Jerry. Cyd Charisse is unbelievable. Her impeccable, beautiful ballet technique and those feet......perfectly placed and just gorgeous to watch.
62 years old in this video and in perfect shape, conditioning and style! What a babe! And she lived another 24 years after this show. R.I.P. My Dear Cyd Charisse!
I was lucky enough to meet both Tony and Cyd, and was fortunate to have seen Tony perform ( sing ) live twice while he was in his 90's.. A real class act.. They don't make them like this any more..
True love. Blissful. It was just that for Cyd and Tony. What a combination. Thanks for the beautiful memories Mr E. When talent was talent. Sorry these other generations have no idea. MGM really stands for magic, greatness and magnificent!!!
Ricardo was wonderful dancer. Classy, debonair, sexy as all get out! He certainly should have been given mentioned. They performed a couple of fantastic numbers in movies back in the '40s
At 62, an extraordinary, exquisite woman that has the best long legs I have ever seen, a great dancer...who says Elizabeth Taylor is better than Cyd Charisse?
I think she was probably the sexiest dancer MGM ever had, without being OVERLY sexy or whorish. very disciplined and talented. Tony was also a GREAT Italian singer.
My goodness...the flexibility, strength, and athleticism here at 62 still at the highest level from this forever BEAUTY!! Cyd, I can't get enough of watching her!
She was first and formost a dancer,classically trained which showed through all her incredible, mesmerazing performences. And yes she was exqusitely beautiful.😊
Aos 62 anos, a deslumbrante Cyd Charisse ainda demonstra os seus maravilhosos atributos físicos, como as pernas, a leveza na coreografia, a elegância, sempre junta do maridão Tony Martin.
Beautiful Cyd Charisse!! "Sentimental Journeys" hosted by her husband Tony Martin, first ever aired as part of the Festival '84 Membership Pledge Drive on most PBS stations including my local PBS station: KPBS for San Diego, California, Circa Saturday March 17th, 1984, TV Worth Watching is TV Worth Paying For!!
Sin duda Sergio, el hombre más afortunado del mundo fue Tony Martin ... El baile, atractivo y la belleza de Cyd Charisse solo puede ser comparado con Rita Hayworth. Y no estoy seguro de cual de las dos estoy más enamorado ... Saludos desde Barcelona.
I was watching Cyd Charisse dancing in a musical called bandwagon with my fat girlfriend. She said shockingly, "she has the legs from another planet!!!"😱👍😜😏😳🤗♥️♥️💞♥️

She’s a household name in our home❤️💋
Tony Martin was the luckiest man in this world! What a beautiful woman!

Her legs are most gorgeous!
Wow! She was magnificent!!! in her sixties performing this!

Oh Lord, so beautiful and graceful, even into her 70's. we don't see that anymore.
Cyd and Tony's autobiography, The Two of Us was great. I found an autographed copy of it in a used book store in the 90s, for about 2 bucks.
What a find!!! Priceless!!!
...ALL this GREAT talent...AND NO SCANDAL to connect Cyd Charisse with up to 2020 ??? HOW SCANDALOUS !
Wow to dance like this at 62! She’s lovely!💕
They truly loved and were devoted to one another!
She will never stop being the best of all dancers. Wow those legs11111
I loved Cyd in Singing in the Rain. She was such a vamp. That hairstyle was perfect for her.
WHAT A BEAUTIFUL LADY!! AMAZING DANCER WITH FRED ASTAIRE!! ABSOLUTELY EXQUISITE!!!!
She looked fantastic!!
She was 62 years old when she performed this!
an amazing tribute to her talent, discipline and perseverance.
62 years old in this video and in perfect shape, conditioning and style! What a babe! And she lived another 24 years after this show. R.I.P. My Dear Cyd Charisse!
The most amazing legs. 0nly one other female dance I like better and thats Anne Miller.
Such discipline and dedication. Two wonderful Stars. Thank you.
I was lucky enough to meet both Tony and Cyd, and was fortunate to have seen Tony perform ( sing ) live twice while he was in his 90's.. A real class act.. They don't make them like this any more..
You nailed it. I miss this talent. Thank goodness for these videos.
Incredible, such beauty and elegance ! This woman must be a fairy and no human being to defy gravity and time in that way !
Yes, she was the greatest. If you have an opportunity get a copy of the documentary on Ballet Russe that came out about 10 years ago.
bd C will
As a child I just loved to watch her dance. None like her!
Loved her on Philadelphia's Mike Douglas show the time the pekapoo peed on her was hysterical...
True love. Blissful. It was just that for Cyd and Tony. What a combination. Thanks for the beautiful memories Mr E. When talent was talent. Sorry these other generations have no idea. MGM really stands for magic, greatness and magnificent!!!
Amazing and they were in their 60s.
Cyd прекрасная балерина
Cyd Charisse und Fred Astaire sind die elegantesten Tänzer, die je gelebt haben.
My favorites were her dances with Ricardo Montalbano....and she did not even mention him. They had the perfect chemistry together........
yes, she was really with Ricardo as Fred was with Ginger She never complimented Montalban 😢
Ricardo was wonderful dancer. Classy, debonair, sexy as all get out! He certainly should have been given mentioned. They performed a couple of fantastic numbers in movies back in the '40s
06:42
The original 'Girl Hunt Ballet'.
Absolutely love her!!!!
At 62, an extraordinary, exquisite woman that has the best long legs I have ever seen, a great dancer...who says Elizabeth Taylor is better than Cyd Charisse?
I think she was probably the sexiest dancer MGM ever had, without being OVERLY sexy or whorish. very disciplined and talented. Tony was also a GREAT Italian singer.
Marie but better in the looks department than BOTH was AVA GARDNER!! But in all fairness CYD’s legs were DIVINE and better any time
Elizabeth did not dance....no comparison. Elizabeth was the actress...Cyd the dancer regal, who could also act.
My goodness...the flexibility, strength, and athleticism here at 62 still at the highest level from this forever BEAUTY!! Cyd, I can't get enough of watching her!
Oh my! I think she was one of the most beautiful women in Hollywood. And she sure could dance.
She was first and formost a dancer,classically trained which showed through all her incredible, mesmerazing performences. And yes she was exqusitely beautiful.😊
WHAT A MONSTER OF THE SHOWBUSINESS!!!
