Mae West (born Mary Jane West; August 17, 1893 – November 22, 1980) was an American stage and film actress, playwright, screenwriter, singer, and sex symbol whose entertainment career spanned over seven decades.

She was active in vaudeville and on stage in New York City before moving to Los Angeles to begin a career in the film industry.

Mae West was my God-mother as in her last days kept very close to her home and in her bedroom, she had Aunt Beverly who was her right hand. The Legend will always live on. Trey Noran
