"The biggest female name in cinema, Brigitte Bardot is the embodiment of all that is sensuous and exciting about fifties and sixties pop culture. This is the soundtrack to The Girl in the Bikini, Brigitte's second film made in 1952. The original vinyl edition of this album is an almost impossible rarity; amongst the most sought after of all Bardot artifacts. Brigitte Bardot's enormous international reputation is based on her incredible beauty and intelligence and the work she did in film with Roger Vadim and in pop with Serge Gainsbourg. Brigitte Bardot -- the name has generated headlines and cinema queues over five decades. Her very initials are known far and wide and signal instant revolution in films, fashion, lifestyles, sexuality.

In addition to her film career, actress Brigitte Bardot ... had a healthy track record as a recording artist, resulting in some of the catchiest French bubblegum pop of the late '60s. As with many of the other "ye-ye girls", much of her repertoire was written and orchestrated by pop bad boy, Serge Gainsbourg. Bardot wasn't a great singer, but she sure was easy on the eyes, and a great sport, to boot. She was the only real competition Francoise Hardy had as France's most babilicious singer.

Former bombshell Brigitte Bardot was never a fan of plastic surgery. Instead of using cosmetic surgery to stay in the limelight as she got older, she moved on to other endeavors and let herself slip away from the spotlight. Bardot is in her seventies now and she looks like it as you can see from the pictures at a recent blog post that show Bardot ‘then and now’. There’s nothing wrong with aging naturally but it’s no coincidence that Bardot’s choice to not get any form of plastic surgery was aligned with her movement out of stardom. It would be interesting to see what Bardot might look like today if she’d gotten plastic surgery back then. That’s not her story and that’s okay but wouldn’t it be neat if it was possible to digitally determine what Bardot would look like at seventy if she’d had work done at 40 to keep her Hollywood-perfect?

Brigitte Bardot was born in Paris on September 28, 1934. She studied music and dance as a child, and began modeling at the age of 15, appearing on the cover of the French magazine Elle as a beautiful teenager. By 1952, she showed up in her first film, Le Trou normand (Crazy for Love). That same year, upon turning 18, she married director Roger Vadim, whom she met several years before. (They divorced after five years of marriage.) After Vadim put her in And God Created Woman (1956), her popularity soared. She appeared in her first American film in 1954, Act of Love (Un acte d'amour), opposite Kirk Douglas.
