RIP Bettie. I really think you changed the face of our society. I think you were the right person at the right time.

I'm a dummy. Betty who? Betty Boop? Betty Ford? Betty Crocker? Betty Rubble?

Whoever it is/was, then Godspeed Mystery Betty :)

I do think it's also terribly sad that she didn't even want anyone to see her in her later days though, due to all the hype and pressure about image, weight and all of that good ol' crap. That fact is more in my mind than all the image that people have obsessed about and worshiped for so many decades.
