As Coco Chanel, self-assured film legend Katherine Hepburn swans her way through the finale of Broadway’s “Coco,” then reveals a singing voice every bit as distinct as that of Lauren Bacall.

That Betty Davis I love her!
And Katherine as Coco. I think that resurrected her career at the time. That was a very long scene but I love all the red.
It’s about time John put up another great video! I love your stuff John, you have a great eye and taste for finding perfection.
Hey, Captain Janeway is all dressed up as a very fashionable older lady– and she’s sing-talking like Magenta! She’s gone mad!
She’s so fierce. Grrr!
File under sing-talking, between Felion, Marc and Shatner, William…
Even after watching this strange stage spectacle, I STILL have a crush on Katherine Hepburn.
Sorry Bette wins. Her song had a nice beat and you can really dance to it.
Nice to see you again Maia! We were just talking about you!
Alive and well! Takes a tickin’ and keeps on lickin’… or something like that.
Leave it to John Q. to post a Kate Hepburn video and bring me out of hiding…
Welcome back Maia! We missed you.
