Betty Boop

   Also found in: Wikipedia 0.09 sec.

Betty Boop

Comic-strip character created in the USA 1915 by Grim Natwick for Max Fleischer's ‘Talkartoons’. Sexy and independent, she has short curly black hair, a minidress, and wide-eyed appeal.

Her image and ‘boop-a-doop’ song were supposedly borrowed from US singer Helen Kane (1904-1966). Betty Boop was popular throughout the 1920s and 1930s, and the cartoons in which she appeared usually made comments on social follies of the time. Her film debut was in Dizzy Dishes 1930.
