Wow! I’ve never seen this. I loved her. I first saw her as cat woman. She became a cat 🐈⬛. I loved watching and listening to her on late night talk shows. She was other worldly. I want to hear, now, as an adult, what she had to say, back then, about her experiences as an entertainer and a woman.😻😽
Perfect. The one and only and 100% better than any that have tried since. She's an authentic gem. No plastic face fillers or body lifts, no auto tune. Today, all we get are plastic personalities from plastic people and machine generated "music". Eartha's keeping it real and a real class act.
Ive always been a fan of Ertha Kitt...but I didnt know until recently that she sang the original version of this song. She was beautiful and an amazing dancer, actor , singer and civil rights activist. Its a shame that she was black listed because of her views about civil rights. Thank you for sharing this video!
fantastic FANTASTIC and truly fantastic. Eartha Kitt is truly remarkable in he white outfit and beautiful smile! Many thanks for showing her again ! peace and God bless.
Julie Newmar got to me first so she was my favourite. That being said though, Eartha was remarkable as Catwoman. With her hair pulled tightly back to accent the planes of her feline face and the trill she'd put on her Rs in line-readings that sounded like a cat's purr, she had gotten fully into the character, and she made her costume look like it was painted onto her body. She could have performed in Cats without needing a single stroke of makeup to become a cat. She already had the face and her acting alone would have made the transformation complete.
i saw this movie when it came out,, everyone went to the cinema on xmas & easter while adults did set ups & ladies did clean ups.. so many kids, we were safe in cinemas then, we were stupid then. Eartha was 1 sexy number & what a tease!
I've always enjoyed Eartha Kitt's rendition of Santa Baby, but until now I had never seen her. What a beautiful lady! I love those dimples! How could Santa possibly resist?

It's not Christmas without Eartha Kitt's "Santa Baby!"
This song is often covered, and no other version has ever come close to equalling it. Amazing performance.

Thanks for watching PizzaFLIX. May the Sauce be with you.
Eartha Kitt was a wonderful actress/singer/performer, and the best Catwoman. :)
Thank you, Pizza Flix.
Eartha Kitt was the original Material Girl,
and the original Diamonds' best friend.
Good point!!
Fabulous. 70 years ago still awesome. Actually 71.
Eartha Kitt was truly a class act. 💖
She had so much class. This is why she is a legend. ❤❤❤❤❤ Merry Christmas PizzaFlex.
Absolutely love it. Her version is the best and in my Top 5 Christmas Songs. Thanks.🥰
Eartha singing this is the reason for season.
She was amazing

Thanks🍕Flix

Eartha was bad in this performance, loved her outfit they had clinging on HER ssssssssssooooooooooo sexy for the fifties!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THIS IS GREAT. MRS.KITT IS ONE OF THE BEST CATWOMAN ON FILM. CLASSY LADY.
i think this number put her in super star status, wow! how daring back then.
Love her, love this song 🎶 🎄💃🏻🎅❤
Approaching 70 years ago. Wow.
i saw this movie when it came out,, everyone went to the cinema on xmas & easter while adults did set ups & ladies did clean ups.. so many kids, we were safe in cinemas then, we were stupid then.
Eartha was 1 sexy number & what a tease!
Ohhhh that Cat Woman...
Classic
My favorite Catwoman.
Orson Welles once called Eartha Kitt the most exciting woman in the world.
Best version by far!
Even the music is fantastic, certainly don’t make it like they used to 😍
Wow! What a gal!
Thanks Pizza 🍕 Flix!
🎄 MERRY CHRISTMAS 🎄
🍕🎯🍕

Very Risque. But also fabulous

Orson Welles once called her the "most exciting woman in the world"
Indeed. They never had an affair, Miss Kitt being involved with a French film director at the time. But she and Welles were very good friends.
Oh, thank you!
Oh yes! Thank you! 🎅🏻❤️👍🏻
It is December 2022 and Eartha Kitt still has "Santa Baby" at the top of the best Christmas songs. 🎶🎤🎄🎁😍 BJ/ATL-USA
Thank you. Only one clueless comment.
💛
Wow! 👍😊😊😊
