Facts about
One of the many posters hanging on Tessie Tura's dressing room wall is a caricature of Ethel Merman, who created the role of Rose in the Broadway musical version of "Gypsy".
It was widely thought that during the filming of this movie, Rosalind Russell stuck the hat pin through her head, and that when the scene was over she passed out. This is noticeable at the end of the "Some People" when she sings "Well, they can stay and rot!" When she takes the plaque, you can clearly see the other end of the hat pin doesn't stick out.
