Lauren Bacall: Get Outta My Face!

Posted Oct 17th 2007 2:46PM by TMZ Staff

"You know how to get into a car, don't you, Steve? You just step off the curb, and go." 83-year-old Lauren Bacall (formerly Betty Joan Perske) was just 19 when she whispered words like that to her late husband, Humphrey Bogart, in her 1944 film debut as Slim in, "To Have and Have Not."


Miss Bacall was at Mr. Chow last night -- signing autographs and posing for paparazzi -- some of whom rarely see a star of her magnitude. Bacall chastised an autograph seeker who got to close to her famous visage, saying, "Don't stick things in my face!"

10. Yes, she IS "Fabulous" to a degree no longer POSSIBLE, but in the old days Stars, when there WERE such creatures, DID stop and sign at least a FEW autographs.

11. Despite my #8 comment, Lauren Bacall is truly a Hollywood talent and star of such a great magnitude that the twit entertainers of today can only hope to be in 30 years.

12. A lady with class and style, natural beauty and I guarantee the paps backed up.
This one I would have rushed to get an autograph from.
Movie people today need to take some lessons from the pros.

#2 & #3 you sound like brit and lilo turds.

14. She should be doing anti smoking ads.

She is a classic example of what happens to a smokers face and voice.
