From msnbc.com - "NEW YORK - Eartha Kitt, a sultry singer, dancer and actress who rose from South Carolina cotton fields to become an international symbol of elegance and sensuality, has died, a family spokesman said. She was 81." www.msnbc.msn.com/id/28386832/Eartha Kitt, of course, was the voice of Yzma from The Emperor's New Groove, who I must say is perhaps the funniest character Disney has produced in the last decade. At least in my opinion. Eartha Kitt's passing defiantly comes as a post-Christmas punch in the gut.

I was really taken aback by this news. She was truly great as Yzma.

The BEST Catwoman the Batman series will ever know. She was so talented, and while I love her as Yzma her career before that was so much more. I am shocked and saddened by the news, though she lived a full life. She has been a favorite actress of mines since very early childhood. She's the reason Catwoman was my favorite 'comic' bad guy. She was freaking awesome in that roll.
And she totally makes TENG work.
Rest in Peace, Eartha. And thank you.

My first thought when I found out was, "Not Yzma!" May she RIP.
