You've got a winner with this hub, compu-smart. Betty Hutton is my No. 1 favorite among actresses and singers. She had to face a lifetime of difficulties, but you'd never know by her movies or her singing talent. She was great in "Here Come the Waves," starring Bing Crosby in 1944, the same year he won the Oscar. She played both roles as twin sisters.

Johnny Cash and Tony Randall were great talents, and I agree with adventure that Jackie Gleason was awesome.
