Helen Kane, A Lesson in Love
Vaudeville star Helen Kane learns "A Lesson in Love" in this 1931 comedy short and sings "I Love Myself Because You Love Me". The boop-boop-a-boop girl's movie career only lasted two short years, and Paramount replaced her with a less expensive cartoon version of herself, "Betty Boop," voiced by rival Mae Questel.

We all think of a better comeback once we walk away. Respect to Helen for marching back to fire it off
"But I don't want to be your friend. I want to be your husband!" "Oh. You just want to make up temporarily, huh?"

Betty boop ❤ 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
so annoying every time i cant remember what her name I try looking up the person they ripped off betty boop from and that baby esther bs comes up. i hate the internet. Literally the only reason she was brought up was to discredit helen kanes lawsuit against the creators of the character so they didnt have to pay her for stealing her likeness which everyone knew they did. They found several obscure artists to show that the characteristics of betty boop were common and were not invented by helen kane. no part of Baby Esther is present in betty boop or helen kanes work. The internet then shares photos of black women cosplaying as Helen Kane along with captions claiming that Helen Kane ripped off Baby Esther. Meanwhile theres not any recording of Baby Esther as a child performer or any real photos of her. Not even the one photo that isnt a betty boop cosplayet is baby esther its a different adult singer of the same name that had nothing to do with the manufactured controversy.

I know what you mean. I think people are annoyed because of the lawsuit from Helen. I am sick of seeing videos where all you see is comments about how she'd copied so and so too. In jobs people are inspired by those who came before them. So Why can't people just appreciate the talent and enjoy the music.

@@Thewatcher10000 I’m not sure if this is for real, but I think that it’s because in todays society we recognize black people as more impoimportant figures than we did back then, and I also contributed to the fact that nobody even knows who Helen Kane is nowadays sadly. But I don’t know WHY THAT is. Honestly…🙄 But you are right it does not make any sense as to why this even began in the first place, but that’s just my take on it.

thats not dramatic enough. the way people try to spin it is as if it was baby esther that sued helen for copying her. and now the top result for who betty boop was based on shows baby esther with a photo of a woman who wasnt even baby esther. in the end the lawyers won and Helen Kane recieves no credit.

She never stole the style of that kid, but baby esther stole her style and the style of multiple other famous female singers of that time.
The woman STOLE from Esther Jones and she had the audacity to sue the creators of Betty Boop, saying that they stole her style, when SHE was the one who stole from a black woman in the 1900’s! The creators even said she Betty Boop was going to be black since Esther Jones was the TRUE inspiration for her, but due to racism, that wasn’t the case!

@@bunnipawzzz4059 Esther Jones has nothing to do with Betty Boop. You need to do your research. Helen Kane was performing in her "Betty Boop" style as early as 1923. But a singer called Irene Franklin had been doing the "Betty Boop voice" since about 1908. In addition, vaudeville singers had been doing what is today called "scatting" since the 19th century. The film of Esther Jones was recorded significantly AFTER Kane was famous. In it, Esther sings three songs that had all earlier been popularized by Kane. Kane's lawyers said the film should be recognized as "a Helen Kane impersonator", and the Judge agreed. The Judge ruled that Esther was "irrelevant, incompetent and immaterial" in the Kane v Fleischer case. It is only far more recently that some people have completely misunderstood what actually happened, and this "Baby Esther" stuff has gone viral. Edit... Here's a 1911 recording from Irene Franklin. Yes, 1911. This is a key part to Kane losing, and NOT some "Baby Esther" garbage.. m.kzread.info/dash/bejne/o6akrNxvhMS_oJs.html And also from 1911, here's a Gene Greene recording(Note that this is over a decade before "scat singing" allegedly started...) m.kzread.info/dash/bejne/mJiomq-EqJieabQ.html And, as we know Kane had combined both styles by 1923, how could she have "taken" anything from Esther...in 1928?(Especially as Esther didn't even begin performing anything like this until years AFTER Kane).
