The Real Inspiration And Evolution Of The Betty Boop Cartoon

She Hasn’t Had Her Curtain Call Yet

Betty Boop continues to be popular even today. In 2010 Boop became the official fantasy cheerleader for the United Football League and was used on their female-targeted merchandise. In 2012 she starred in a commercial for the makeup and perfume brand Lancome, alongside model Daria Werbowy, for their Hypnôse Star Mascara. A Betty Boop Broadway musical production, scored by Grammy and Academy Award nominee David Foster, is currently in the works and is set to be released in the fall of 2018. She truly is a legend that has withstood the test of time. Baby Esther would be proud.
