Some time ago Daily Mail has published the photograph of a teenage Brigitte Bardot with her extraordinary waist.
The photo was taken on the beach at Cannes in 1955 when Miss Bardot made her first appearance at the film festival there. Then unknown 19-year-old actress demonstrates her trademark sexy pose.
Bardot is said to have boasted hour-glass statistics of 36-20-35 in 1956 during the filming of “And God Created Woman”, the Roger Vadim classic that made her one of the world’s best known sex symbols.
In this photograph it appears her astonishing figure is not assisted by a corset, although the belt does appear to be buckled up particularly tightly.
Brigitte Bardot is a French actress, former fashion model, singer and animal welfare/rights activist. In 2007 she was named among Empire’s 100 Sexiest Film Stars.
In her early life Bardot was an aspiring ballet dancer. She started her acting career in 1952 and after appearing in 16 films became world-famous due to her role in controversial film And God Created Woman.
During her career in show business Bardot starred in 48 films, performed in numerous musical shows, recorded 80 songs. After her retirement from the entertainment industry in the 1973, Bardot established herself as an animal rights activist. During the 1990s she became outspoken in her criticism of immigration, interracial relationships, Islam in France and homosexuality, and has been convicted five times for “inciting racial hatred”.
