Sorry folks, but it is not David Bret's book that is in contention here. It is Mr. Kaufman's Book that Doris is
appalled about. Here is a link that will interest you all, I am sure.

"So, if you take the emotions out of this issue, there would be no issue at all. Privacy is something stars give up once they become famous -- and they KNOW that. I'm sure Doris is neither surprised nor dismayed at this attention. People need to quit trying to "protect" someone who doesn't need prot...

I have to totally disagree with you here Bryan. Just because Doris wrote her own story, it does not mean that she has opened the door to other people writing about her and making their own window into what she does behind her bedroom door. These are things we have no right to know unless she wants t...

Sorry, you are not feeling well Bryan. Sending warm thoughts for a speedy recovery. I guess I know from your statement that the book would probably rub me the wrong way. Just a comment regarding Doris' huge impact for the animals...due to her work in raising the consciousness of America about animal...

I have tried hard to stay out of this mix the best I can, but I have to say that I too agree with John....because we have already seen from the Vanity Fair Article things that I feel have already crossed the line of privacy. I would like to believe that what was in that article is the worst we will ...

The New Banner is fantastic Bryan!! I love it!

I would have to agree with John, in that I would love for her to have recorded Send In The Clowns and of course, anything from Phantom Of The Opera...such as Music of the Night or All I Ask. That would be heaven.

My favorite has always been Midnight Lace. The story line was gripping and Doris' acting was above reproach. She was fantastic in it, because she put every emotion she had into it. She literally collapsed after doing the staircase scene. She should have won the Oscar for that scene alone. I remember...

The reality is no tabloid garbage and no trashy book is ever going to change how the fans know and love Doris. I am certain the death of Terry has not been easy for her, and perhaps she does not go out and about like she did before his death...whatever, she entitled to do what she needs to take care...

The problem with these trash magazines is that Doris doesn't grant interviews with them, and she lives a very private life...so they have to create stories, slanted ones, in order to draw people into buying their crap. Why can't they just leave the lady alone! She has earned the right to have a priv...

Tonight, during the award ceremony, Doris was honored by Tony Bennett for her Lifetime Achievement Award. It was a delight to see them honor her, along with the other winners. Here's a toast to Dear Doris on a career well done! What a great night for Ms. Day!

John, I could not say it any better than you just did. I want to think that someone could do a book about Doris without throwing her private life and private information up for scrutiny. There are alot of things about our Doris that can be used and does not invade the boundaries of privacy, especial...

Didn't I read somewhere that Doris and Lauren Bacall did not get along at all in the "Young Man With A Horn?" Perhaps Ms. Bacall was always self absorbed in herself. Too bad, because I think she is a good actress. Regarding Mamie Van Doren, wasn't she a bit of an airhead? It would seem to me Clara w...

Jas, your point is well taken. You are right in that Doris does not have that kind of ego, never did and never will. The difference is like night and DAY, no pun intended. Doris has always had alot of grace in everything she does, while Striesand makes her demands known instantly. However, I still l...

It is a shock to know that Heath Ledger is dead. He was a talent that was just beginning to be recognized. His performance in Brokeback Mountain was one of the best I have seen since the likes of James Dean. It is truly a sad loss. I thought it was very classy how Daniel Day Lewis paid tribute to hi...

Streisand is very much a perfectionist who has to have everything just right. She may be a pain in the butt, however, I think she has earned her way to be what ever she wants. Some people can get away with their eccentricities, and she is one of them. I really don't think she gives a hoot if she hap...

When you think about it, it is sad that Doris had to work so hard all her life only to be left in debt at the time her husband passed away. What is really unbelievable is how truly classy Doris was by saying, " I prefer to believe that Marty was taken in by Rosenthal, as well." The consensus is that...

Sounds almost impossible that with a voice that has been matched by none, that Doris has never won a Grammy....until now! I think these people should have woken up years ago, but unfortunately, now when they see her CD's and re-releases doing so well, they must be stunned to see that years after her...

Welcome Michele. I am new on board too. You will find a nice group of people in this forum...most of whom are true and loyal fans of Ms. Day. You will have a great time sharing your love for her here.
So put your feet up and stay awhile! Have fun!

The consolation to all of this is that she is #1 in all of our hearts...I have a feeling that means more to her then any AFI tribute anyway. The Cecil B. Demille award was different, I think, because the foreign press had always been good to her and honored her during her career. I think that is why...
