[...] Why we love Esther Williams [...]
I only recently discovered and am watching videos on Esther Williams. How stunning and oh so talented was she?. They should make a movie on her…maybe. I can’t think of anyone who could do her justice.
I found an interview she did in 2007. She still looks beautiful and graceful. I think I have a new idol (as well as Grace Kelly). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pQ3vAf815ZE
No I can’t think of anyone who would do her justice either! She was amazing wasn’t she? I’ll check that interview out, thanks!
