Happy 90th Birthday to Brigitte Bardot!
Ooh la la! Brigitte Bardot, the original blonde bombshell and reigning queen of the French sexual revolution, turns 90 today! From Parisian ballerina to "And God Created Woman" seductress, BB’s sultry on-screen presence captivated the world, making her the poster girl for 1950s and '60s hedonism. With 47 films and over 60 songs under her belt, Bardot wasn’t just a pretty face—she was a cultural earthquake.
In 1973, Bardot bid "au revoir" to Hollywood glamour and hello to animal rights activism. The result? A controversial—but unshakable—legacy. Between awards from UNESCO and fines for public insults, this silver-haired siren still knows how to make headlines.
Charles de Gaulle himself called her "France’s most important export after Renault," but today, she's busy saving furry friends instead of breaking hearts. As for her razor-sharp political views? Love her or loathe her, BB remains a force. Age may mellow most, but clearly, you’re not one of them! Still, it’s not all glamour. Known for her sharp tongue, Bardot has earned more fines than some people earn parking tickets, but let’s face it—controversy was always her co-star. Happy birthday, Brigitte! Always fierce, never forgotten!
