Zsa Zsa Gabor

Zsa Zsa Gabor invented a job description the world now takes for granted: being famous as an art form. Long before reality television, this Budapest-born beauty queen turned Hollywood socialite understood that wit, glamour, and a perfectly timed quip could be a career in themselves. I respect that she backed it with real work, from the Vienna stage to film and television, a Golden Globe in 1958, and a star on the Walk of Fame. With her sisters, she made the Gabor name synonymous with extravagant self-invention. She lived to 99 and stayed on brand to the end, and that consistency strikes me as its own kind of genius.
