The same with other tragic stars like Jean Harlow, Natalie Wood, Marilyn Monroe etc. And yes, I believe it was coined for her, at least I've seen it used in relation to her a lot of times!<br /><br />@Tharwa - Thanks for voting! :)<br /><br />@Caftan Woman - Yay for Irene! I love all the ladies on the list but Irene is definitely one of my favourites!

I ultimately went with Carole because she starred in so many screwball comedies and I associate her career most with the genre. Many of the other actresses went on to do many other types of films. Dear Carole didn't have a chance to but she left us a wonderful legacy of the films she did make. Also, wasn't she the one that the term was originally coined for? (Could be wrong on that, though.)Audreyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06729516870952658426noreply@blogger.com
