JANE RUSSELL at 'The Party', Los Angeles, California - 17.10.05

The stunning actress, who once wowed movie tycoon HOWARD HUGHES, walked away from Hollywood years ago, but, at 84, she still entertains the crowds at a twice-monthly karaoke night in Santa Maria, California.

Russell and friends entertain as part of the SWINGING 40S show in the bar of airport hotel the Radisson in the sleepy California town, where MICHAEL JACKSON was tried for child molestation last year (05).

The GENTLEMEN PREFER BLONDES star says, "I got fed up with there being no entertainment for people of my age - people over 40. I started out singing by myself in a Mexican restaurant nearby. Then I got a few singers together."
