The Real Inspiration And Evolution Of The Betty Boop Cartoon
Hungry? There’s A Betty Boop Diner
As if we needed more evidence of Betty Boop’s monumental impact on popular culture, you can now dine at a Betty Boop-themed diner. The diner, which opened in Tokyo in early 2017, features a 1950s America theme, which captures the image of the iconic Betty Boop character as well as a sales corner featuring souvenir products.
“We are thrilled to be partnering with FBC, who has extensive experience in managing character-identified restaurants and cafes in Japan,” said Cathleen Titus, vice president of international licensing for King Features. “They have done a terrific job of capturing Betty’s combination of glamour and sassiness to communicate genuine ‘50s vibes for the diner.”
