Welcome to the third edition of the Agnes Moorehead Blogathon. This event coincides with the 50th anniversary of Agnes’ passing from uterine cancer on April 30th, 1974. For the next three days, an array of talented bloggers will be paying tribute to this great Lady, who conquered all corners of the entertainment industry and continues to spawn her magic and bewitch us all half a century after her death.
For those bloggers who are participating in the blogathon, please submit your entry on the comment section below or via email, and I will showcase it on this post as soon as possible. Thank you.
This is for you Aggie. Rest In Peace beautiful lady. In your honor, I’ve changed my font colour to lavender.

Thank you, Gill. Hopefully you receive this reply. WordPress has really been acting strange lately.

Hi Andrew. I tried leaving a comment under your article on “The Invaders’, but I’m still having trouble commenting on WordPress blogs. I just wanted to thank you for your participation in the blogathon and for sharing your thoughts with us all.
I have also announced another blogathon and I would love to you on board for this one too. Here is the link with more details. https://crystalkalyana.wordpress.com/2024/05/13/announcing-the-third-judy-garland-blogathon/
