Cyd Charisse, RIP


As a TV who loves legs, I couldn't let her passing go unremarked.

She was born Tula Finklea in Texas in 1921 and gained the last name Charise (with one "R") from her first husband. "Cyd" was a childhood nickname (her brother couldn't say "Sis"). She is survived by her second husband, singer Tony Martin, and two children, Nicholas Charise and Tony Martin Jr.
