Janis Paige his died after a 60-year-career Hollywood actress and Broadway star Janis Paige has died aged 101. One of the last surviving stars of the Golden Age of Hollywood starred in many movies over her 60-year career including The Pajama Game, the Doris Day comedy Please Don’t Eat the Daisies, and Silk Stockings, in which she danced with the late Fred Astaire. The actress continued working into her 80s.
She revealed in a 2016 interview with Miami Herald that he didn’t know she wasn’t a classically trained dancer. ‘Fred never knew it, but he was so great. He would come in the morning and say, “I have a great idea for a step. You think you can do this?” ‘I never said no to him. I wouldn’t dare say no to Fred Astaire. Especially when we did the end of it, when you have to catch the chandelier and swing out over all those people.
