Just saw that she passed. Sad day we also lost Janis Joplin on this day in 1970.

She got zero $ from the movie, is my understanding. She lived a full life.

Damn. I hate losing good musicians. RIP.

About her making zero $ from the movie, I can’t find a source anywhere. I did some sleuthing and if this story were true you’d expect that something would have popped up by now. No matter, she was worth over $50 million from what I did find.

It’s interesting to compare Loretta with her contemporary, Tammy Wynette. Both great country singers. Tammy sang “stand by your man” but divorced two husbands and had two other annulments, while Loretta sang more liberated songs but remained married to her husband (when she had reason not to).
