Jane Russell, the voluptuous "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes" star who was a pinup girl during World War II, has died. She was 89.
She got her start in Howard Hughes' film "The Outlaw" in 1943 and went on to worldwide fame. Her last film role was as Alabama Tigress in 1970's "Darker Than Amber."
Howard Hughes signed her to a seven-year contract in 1943. It took three years for "The Outlaw" to be released because censors objected to the display of her cleavage.
