Burlesque star Dita Von Teese was branded a "poor mimic" by the late Bettie Page for trying to impersonate the beauty.
The legendary pin-up died on Thursday aged 85 after suffering a heart attack earlier this month.
But Von Teese remembers her encounter with the star fondly.
Of their meeting, Von Teese recalls, "She looked me up and down and said, 'You're an attractive girl, but a poor Bettie Page mimic'.
"I said, 'I know' and she laughed." »
