I never really got her shtick.

If she released a golden shower video with Ray J she would also be as big as Kim Kardashian

And she passed away on March 4, 1996, of cancer of the price tag.

Her real name was Sarah Colley (Cannon after she was married), she was from a prosperous family and graduated from Tennessee's most prestigious college for women. In real life she was quite intelligent and soft-spoken and nothing like her character.

Yes, she was very much a classy Suthren society lady in real life.

She was on an episode of ‘70’s Match Game I watched a few months ago and she seemed like a genuine, modest person. She was sitting next to Asshat Kissing Bandit Dickie Dawson in his I-don’t-want-to-be-here-my-show-Family-Feud-is-10x-better phase.
