"I was convinced it was absolutely me." She also noted that because the role required judo skills and she was already hot property from starring in The Avengers, "it seemed dead right that I should play Pussy." - Honor Blackman on landing the role of Pussy Galore in Goldfinger
Honor Blackman will forever be known as "Pussy Galore" straight outta the James Bond movie Goldfinger.
She wasn't really put off by the characters name in fact when she was touring the states to promote the film journalists would often say to her: How do you feel playing a character with this name, don't you find it distasteful???
They were told not to say the name at all while interviewing her. Thus she delighted in intentionally dropping the character's name into interviews to embarrass straight faced or nervous reporters.
"Pussy Galore" indeed!
