Hungría (1917 -). Actriz húngara, cuyo verdadero nombre es Sari Gabor, nacida el 6 de Febrero de 1917 en Budapest. Tempestuous blonde Hungarian personality and sometime actress who has parlayed her ability for headline-grabbing into a career. Gabor's performances have always taken a decided backseat to her fur-swathed, be-diamonded appearances before talk show hosts and reporters as a worldly-wise femme fatale. Along with Jayne Mansfield, Gabor nourished and came to epitomize the American concept of celebrity: a spotlit persona who exists in the public eye not because of any unique accomplishment, but simply by Being. Oh, Dolink, zese are just my vorking diamonds. The same wit engaged her in numerous feuds throughout the years. In more recent years her publicity has soured, most notably in 1989 when she was found guilty of driving without a license in Beverly Hills; her confidence was reportedly bolstered by an open bottle of vodka. Claiming rudeness on the part of the arresting officer, Gabor delivered the now infamous slap, which resulted in a brief stint in jail. Gabor made memorable decorative turns in MOULIN ROUGE (1952) (dubbed as Jane Avril) and LILI (1953) but is best remembered by cultists as THE QUEEN OF OUTER SPACE (1958). On TV she guested on the camp television series Batman (1966-68) as the gold-digging Minerva, whose mineral spa fleeced swells by extracting secrets from their brains.
