Betty Boop was created by Grim Natwick and appeared as
the girl friend of a dog
named Bimbo. Betty's figure was modeled after Mae
West's and her singing style taken
from Helen Kane the "Boop-Boop-a-Doop" Girl.
Betty Boop made her debut as a sexy canine cabaret singer in the Max Fleischer
short "Dizzy Dishes" on Aug. 8, 1930. In 1931 Betty's friends Koko the Clown and
Pudgy, Bimbo's replacement, were introduced. Betty Boop evolved into her own
with "Betty Co-Ed" when she shed her dog identity and the
long ears became
earrings. Betty Boop's beginings were quite risque and ahead of her
time as
gusts of wind raised her skirt long before Marilyn Monroe. By 1932 Betty was
considered to be the first andonly female animated screen star who could do it
all - Drama, Musicals and Comedy. Betty Boop had a flare all her own, she could
be daring and
assertive while keeping an air of innocence . In 1939 her last film "Yip Yip Yipee"
was released. In 1934, King Features Syndicate started distribution of "Betty
Boop", a newspaper comic strip drawn by Bud Counihan.
