'''Jane Russell''' (born June 21, 1921) is an American actress and sex symbol. She was born '''Ernestine Jane Geraldine Russell''' in Bemidji, Minnesota. Busty star of Hollywood films, TV, and nightclubs Russell's cleavage provided the most crucial issue in the controversy surrounding the public showing of Howard Hughes's ''The Outlaw'' in the 1940s.Hughes was rumored to have been obsessed with her breasts and spent countless hours designing her a special bra to be worn in "The Outlaw".

==Early life==
Jane Russell was born in Bemidji, Minnesota, the only daughter of Roy William Russell (January 5, 1890-July 18, 1937) and Geraldine Jacobi (January 2, 1891-December 26, 1986). Her four younger brothers are Thomas Ferris Russell (born April 16, 1924), Kenneth Steven Russell (born September 2, 1925), James Hyatt Russell (born February 9, 1927) and Wallace Jay Russell (born January 31, 1929).

Her parents were both born in North Dakota. Three of her grandparents were born in Canada, while her paternal grandmother was born in Germany. Her parents married in 1917. Her father was a former commissioned First Lieutenant in the U.S. Army and her mother was a former actress with a road troupe. When Jane was a child they moved temporarily to Canada, then moved to the San Fernando Valley of Southern California. They lived in Burbank in 1930 and her father worked as an office manager at a soap manufacturing plant.

Jane's mother arranged for her to take piano lessons. In addition to music, she was interested in drama and participated in stage productions at Van Nuys High School. Her early ambition was to be a designer of some kind, until the death of her father at forty-six, when she decided to work as a receptionist after graduation. She also modeled for photographers and, at the urging of her mother, studied drama and acting with Max Reinhardt's Theatrical Workshop and with famed Russian actress Maria Ouspenskaya.

==Entertainment career==
In 1940, Russell was signed to a seven year contract by millionaire Howard Hughes and made her motion picture debut in ''The Outlaw'' (1943), a story about Billy the Kid that went to great lengths to showcase her voluptuous bust. Although the movie was completed in 1941, it was released for a limited showing two years later. There were problems with the censorship of the production code over the way her ample cleavage was displayed. When the movie was finally passed, it had a general release in 1946. During that time, Russell was kept busy doing publicity and became famous.

Together with Lana Turner, Russell personified the sensuously contoured sweater girl look. Besides the thousands of quips from radio comedians, including Bob Hope once introducing her as "the two and only Jane Russell," the photo of her on a haystack glowering with sulking beauty and youthful sensuality as her breasts push forcefully against her bodice was a popular pin-up with Service men during World War II.

Though ''The Outlaw'' was not a spectacular Western, it did well at the box-office. It appeared that Hughes was only interested in her being cast in movies that showcased her sensational figure, however, reportedly refusing an offer from Darryl Zanuck for her to play Doña Sol in Blood and Sand. She was not in another movie until 1946, when she played Joan Kenwood in Young Widow for RKO. Though her early movies did little to show her true acting abilities, they helped parlay her into a career portraying smart, often cynical, tough "broads," with a wisecracking attitude.

In 1947, Russell attempted to launch a musical career, recording a single with the Kay Kyser Orchestra, "As Long As I Live". She went on to perform with proficiency in an assortment of roles, which includes playing Calamity Jane opposite Bob Hope in ''The Paleface'' (1948) on loan out to Paramount; and Mike Delroy opposite Hope in ''Son of Paleface'' (1952), again at Paramount.

Russell was at the height of her wry comedic talents with her performance as Dorothy Shaw in ''Gentlemen Prefer Blondes'' (1953) opposite Marilyn Monroe at 20th Century Fox, which is one of her most memorable roles. It was an excellent movie and showed her as a talented actress.

She appeared in two movies opposite Robert Mitchum, ''His Kind of Woman'' (1951) and ''Macao'' (1952). Other co-stars include Frank Sinatra and Groucho Marx in the comedy ''Double Dynamite'' (1951); Victor Mature, Vincent Price and Hoagy Carmichael in ''The Las Vegas Story'' (1952); Jeff Chandler in ''Foxfire'' (1955); and Clark Gable and Robert Ryan in ''The Tall Men'' (1955).

Russell and her first husband, Waterfield, formed Russ-Field Productions in 1955. They produced ''Gentlemen Marry Brunettes'' (1955), ''The King and Four Queens'' (1956) starring Clark Gable and Eleanor Parker, ''Run for the Sun'' (1956) and ''The Fuzzy Pink Nightgown'' (1957).

Her performances in ''Gentlemen Marry Brunettes'', opposite Jeanne Crain, and in the drama ''The Revolt of Mamie Stover'' (1956) displayed her fine acting ability. But after making ''The Fuzzy Pink Nightgown'' (1957), which failed at the box-office, she did not appear on the silver screen again for seven years.

In October 1957, she debuted in a successful solo nightclub act at the Sands Hotel in Las Vegas. She also fulfilled later engagements in the U.S., Canada, Mexico, South America and Europe.

In the summer of 1961, she debuted with a tour of Janus in New England. In the fall of 1961, she performed in Skylark at the Drury Lane Theatre, Chicago. And in November 1962, she performed in Bells Are Ringing at the Westchester Town House in Yonkers, New York.

Her next movie appearance was in ''Fate Is the Hunter'' (1964), in which she was Jane Russell performing for the USO in a flashback sequence. Unfortunately, she made only four more movies after that, playing character parts in the final two.

In 1971, she starred in the musical drama ''Company'' on Broadway, replacing Elaine Stritch. Russell performed the role of Joanne in the play for six months. Also in the 1970s, she started appearing in television commercials as a spokeswoman for Playtex "cross your heart bras for us full-figured gals."

She wrote an autobiography in 1985, ''Jane Russell: My Path and My Detours''. In 1989, she received the Women's International Center (WIC) Living Legacy Award.

Jane Russell's hand and foot prints are immortalized in the forecourt of Grauman's Chinese Theater and she has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame at 6850 Hollywood Boulevard in Hollywood.

==Her family life==
Russell had three husbands, NFL quarterback and producer Bob Waterfield (married April 24, 1943-divorced July 1968), actor Roger Barrett (married August 25, 1968-his death November 18, 1968) and real-estate broker John Calvin Peoples (married January 31, 1974-his death April 9, 1999). She and Peoples lived in Sedona, Arizona.

In February 1952 she and Waterfield adopted a baby girl, Tracy. In December 1952 they adopted a fifteen-month-old boy, Thomas, and in 1956 she and Waterfield adopted a nine-month-old boy, Robert John.

Russell was unable to have children and, in 1955, she founded World Adoption International Fund (WAIF), an organization to place children with adoptive families that pioneered adoptions from foreign countries by Americans.

Though her screen image was that of a sex goddess, her private life lacked the sensation and scandal that followed other actresses of the time, such as Lana Turner. At the height of her career, Russell started the "Hollywood Christian Group," a weekly Bible study at her home for Christians in the movie business that was attended by some of the biggest names. Russell was a prominent Republican who attended the Eisenhower inauguration, along with Lou Costello, Dick Powell, June Allyson, Anita Louise, Louella Parsons, and other conservatives.

Karen Brown, an American BBW adult model of the 60's and 70's.

==Career==
A heavier-set, plus-sized but undeniably cute model, Karen Brown posed from the late 1960's to early 1970's and actually left behind a fairly large body of work. She is known for having posed in such adult magazines as Big Natural Tits , Cute Sexy BBW , and Kingsize International. She even did made a color film nudie-cutie loop appearance in "Big Bust Babes", circa early 1970's.

A huge chested model popular in the early to late 1970's, Mary Waters was probably most well-known for her appearances in "Fling Magazine", which she did almost yearly, on top of appearances in many other like-minded big-bust magazines of the time.

She is known for having very large breasts and thick pubic hair. She is one of the first BBW adult models, and one of the most famous. Perhaps most amazing is her striking resemblance to current big-boob model [[Nadine Jansen]].It was rumored that Mary was a truck driver before turning model.No one seems to know what happened to Mary after she quit modeling.
