Eartha Kitt, pseudonimo di Eartha Mae Keith (North, 17 gennaio 1927 – Weston, 25 dicembre 2008), è stata una cantante, attrice e ballerina statunitense, conosciuta anche per le sue performance nel teatro di cabaret. Star di valore mondiale, è ricordata per essere stata interprete della canzone natalizia del 1953 Santa Baby e per il ruolo di Catwoman ricoperto nella serie televisiva Batman (solo nella terza ed ultima stagione). In Italia ha pubblicato negli anni cinquanta alcuni 33 giri per la RCA Italiana, partecipando al Festival di Sanremo 1968 con il brano Che vale per me (scritta da Carlo Alberto Rossi su testo della moglie Marisa Terzi), cantata in coppia con Peppino Gagliardi. Mostrando una notevole vis autoironica, ha fatto parte nel 1992 - nel ruolo di Lady Eloise - del cast del film di Eddie Murphy Il principe delle donne. Wikipedia
