Pronuciation of "Ginger"

[edit]

The current article claims that it was originally "Ginga", from "Virginia". So was it supposed to be pronounced /ˈdʒɪŋgər/ rather than /ˈdʒɪndʒər/? 89.64.70.133 (talk) 22:13, 16 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

1933-1939: Partnership of Rogers and Astaire section

[edit]

In that section, it says a citation is needed for what Astaire said about Rogers to British television interviewer Michael Parkinson. In Wikipedia's Fred Astaire article's section "Assesment of Rogers" there is a citation 40 providing a link to the YouTube clip of the actual Parkinson interview with Astaire.

Wording issue

[edit]

"Although the dance routines were choreographed by Astaire and his collaborator Hermes Pan, both have testified to her consummate professionalism, even during periods of intense strain, as she tried to juggle her many other contractual film commitments with the punishing rehearsal schedules of Astaire, who made at most two films in any one year."

The words "at most" seem wrong to me, having the opposite implication to what the context seems to require. 2A00:23C8:7B09:FA01:95F6:6B93:6E8D:5A2A (talk) 21:23, 7 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Photo of Truman and Rogers

[edit]

Isn't Ms. Rogers on Truman's left, not his right ? She is on the right as you view the photo. 170.85.54.247 (talk) 01:36, 29 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
