Lena Horne, the enchanting jazz singer and actress who reviled the bigotry that allowed her to entertain white audiences but not socialize with them, slowing her rise to Broadway superstardom, has died. She was 92. ...

Horne, whose striking beauty and magnetic sex appeal often overshadowed her sultry voice, was remarkably candid about the underlying reason for her success.

"I was unique in that I was a kind of black that white people could accept," she once said. "I was their daydream. I had the worst kind of acceptance because it was never for how great I was or what I contributed. It was because of the way I looked." ...

While at MGM, she starred in the all-black "Cabin in the Sky," in 1943, but in most of her other movies, she appeared only in musical numbers that could be cut in the racially insensitive South without affecting the story. These included "I Dood It," a Red Skelton comedy, "Thousands Cheer" and "Swing Fever," all in 1943; "Broadway Rhythm" in 1944; and "Ziegfeld Follies" in 1946.

"Metro's cowardice deprived the musical of one of the great singing actresses," film historian John Kobal wrote.

Early in her career Horne cultivated an aloof style out of self-preservation, becoming "a woman the audience can't reach and therefore can't hurt" she once said.

Later she embraced activism, breaking loose as a voice for civil rights and as an artist. In the last decades of her life, she rode a new wave of popularity as a revered icon of American popular music. ...

[DeadCelebrityAlert] Beat poet & "first underground movie star" Taylor Mead, 88

 

Taylor Mead, a poet, actor and exuberant bohemian who colluded with Andy Warhol in the 1960s to nurture a new approach to making movies - sometimes spontaneously, always inexpensively (hand-held 16-millimeter cameras sufficed) and brashly experimental (one film consisted of an hourlong shot of Mr. Mead's bare posterior) - died on Wednesday in Colorado. He was 88. ...

It was as an actor in what was called the New American Cinema in the 1960s that he made his biggest mark. Warhol recruited him as one of his first "superstars," and from 1963 to 1968 he made 11 films with Mr. Mead. In all, Mr. Mead figured that he had made about 130 movies, many of them so spontaneous that they involved only one take.

The film critic J. Hoberman called Mr. Mead "the first underground movie star." The film historian P. Adams Sitney called one of Mr. Mead's earliest films, "The Flower Thief" (1960), "the purest expression of the Beat sensibility in cinema." ...

In 2005 Mr. Mead, who left no immediate survivors, was the subject of a documentary, "Excavating Taylor Mead," directed by William A. Kirkley. The same year he published a book of poems, "A Simple Country Girl." One poem declares: "I am a national treasure/If there were such a thing."
