Dorothy
Lamour (December 10, 1914 – September 22, 1996) was an American actress and
singer. She is best remembered for having appeared in the Road to... movies, a
series of successful comedies starring Bing Crosby and Bob Hope.
Lamour began
her career in the 1930s as a big band singer. In 1936, she moved to Hollywood,
where she signed with Paramount Pictures. Her appearance as Ulah in The Jungle
Princess (1936) brought her fame and marked the beginning of her image as the "Sarong
Queen".
In 1940,
Lamour made her first Road series comedy film Road to Singapore. The Road
series films were popular during the 1940s. The sixth film in the series, Road
to Bali, was released in 1952. By this time, Lamour's screen career had begun
to wane, and she focused on stage and television work. In 1961, Crosby and Hope
teamed up for The Road to Hong Kong, but actress Joan Collins was cast as the
female lead. Lamour made a brief appearance and sang a song near the end of
that film.
