Айрин (Ирен) Кара (англ. Irene Cara; 18 марта 1959, Бронкс, Нью-Йорк, США — 25 ноября 2022, Ларго[d], Флорида, США) — американская актриса и певица 1980-х годов. Лауреат премий «Оскар», «Золотой глобус» и «Грэмми». Родилась 18 марта 1959 года в Бронксе (Нью-Йорк, США), полное имя Irene Cara Escalera . Её отец Гаспар Кара был пуэрториканцем, а мать, Луиза, имела кубинские корни. У Айрин было двое братьев и две сестры. В возрасте трёх лет она вошла в число пяти финалистов конкурса 'Little Miss America', а в пять лет уже играла одним пальцем на пианино. Затем серьёзно изучала музыку, танцы и актёрское искусство, в 1970-х годах участвовала в бродвейских постановках, в телесериалах и шоу. В 1986—1991 гг. была замужем за голливудским каскадёром Конрадом Палмизано. За участие в фильме Слава в 1981 году была номинирована на премию «Золотой глобус» в номинации «Лучшая женская роль в музыкальном фильме». Получила премию «Image» Национальной ассоциации содействия прогрессу цветного населения (NAACP) 1982 года за исполнение роли Сисси Лавджой в телефильме «Сестра, сестра». Пик карьеры наступил для неё в 1983 году, когда она записала титульную песню для фильма «Танец-вспышка» (англ. Flashdance): «Flashdance... What a Feeling», которую она написала в соавторстве с Джорджо Мородером и Китом Форси. Кара написала слова в тот момент, когда ехала в нью-йоркскую студию в автомобиле вместе с Форси, а Мородер сочинил музыку. В 1983—1984 гг выиграла несколько престижных музыкальных наград. ©Все права на видео принадлежат их владельцам. ©All rights to the video belong to their respective owners. #Irenecara #fame #fametvshow #tvintro #80stv #80smusic #80skids #rip #gonetoosoon #restinpeace #childhoodmemories #80sera #80sdance #retro80s #rnbmusic #80srnb #grownfolksmusic #vin (at USA) https://www.instagram.com/p/CmZ4jG_tGXP/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Teena Marie/Vanilla Choc

---

We got all these White women today trying to pass. In the '80s many of Us were shocked to discover that Funk Diva Teena Marie was not Black. And as you can see here, she sometimes adopted certain stylistic indications of her cultural affinity. And she was allowed to do that. And some of us might have been mad if she didn't.

You gotta understand. Teena Marie taught herself to play bass, guitar, keyboards and percussion. And before she was even out of high school was already leading her first band. See. She earned her eternal Golden Key to the City of Harlem by being The Funkiest White Woman Ever.

In fact, I would bet that many Black people from that era, when they see images of her today, still give her a melanin wash. But, she never tried to pass. It wasn't her. It was us. We simply couldn't accept that she was White.

I guess that's why we called her "Vanilla Choc." - rp

BTW: if you've never heard Square Biz, go do your booty a favor and check it out. And, turn it up too. So you can really hear what Lady T. was all about!

---

Itty Bitty Black History Lesson: Motown was dying in the early eighties. And Teena Marie was part of a group of stars who, led by Rick James, reinvigorated the venerable label.
