"being held over another week"

"billed . . . as the 'Brazilian Gypsy Rose Lee,' is rated the best imitator of the Gypsy of any sex. Overcoming language difficulties, Herraro satirizes her singing style and mimics perfectly her diffident strip technique. His makeup as a woman is deceiving even in the intimate confines of the night club. He headlines the Gay Boy Revue now in its 10th week."

"Billed as the 'Brazilian Gypsy Rose Lee,' Billie Herrara is the current attraction at the Club Granada."

"billed as the 'Brazilian Gypsy Rose Lee.'"

"Billie Herraro, the Brazilian Gypsy Rose Lee, headlining at the New Look Club, Newport, Ky., claims a famous teacher and a noted former dancing partner. His dancing teacher was Eduardo Cansino, father of the luscious Rita Hayworth, 'I remember Rita—or Marguerita as she is named—when she was a plump read-headed child in pigtails,' said Herraro. 'She drilled in our same class, but she also got long hours of individual instructions from her parents.' One of Bilie Herraro's first stage partners was the Spanish actress and dancer, Margo . . ."

"Billy Herrero who is making the town talk with his Gypsy Rose Lee number at the Five O'Clock, will be held over at that club."

"Brazilian Sensation"

"Brazillian Gypsy Rose Lee, Senorita Herrero, has been signed to headline a new show opening Tuesday at Club 22. The senorita's unique act will top an all-Latin program . . ."

"Cuban Bombshell"

"DON'T MISS Herrero—'The Brazilian Gypsy Rose Lee'—ENTERTAINING—SENSATIONAL—SURPRISING—We think this act is tops—and you will too. Don't say we didn't tell you."

"explosive native dances and Spanish-English songs of Billy Herrero. Herrero, with his colorful Latin costumes, was signed by Norman for the Detroit unit of his male shows, after a trip made to Santiago, Chile, for that specific purpose."

"EXTRA ADDED ATTRACTION"

"Featured in the stage presentation [in this vaudeville presentation] will be Billy Herrero, who impersonates such female personalities as Gypsy Rose Lee, Carmen Miranda and others."

"Floor Show With An All Star" "BILLY HERRERO—Your chance to see a great artist. Feminine Impersonator without present day equal. Carbon copy of Gypsy Rose Lee, Hedy Lamarr, Carmen Miranda. Kick yourself if you miss it."

"He's well known for impressions of stage, screen and radio notables."

"HERRERO—'The Brazilian Gypsy Rose Lee' offers this week Pulsating Latin Rhythms a la CARMEN MIRANDA"

"OPENING TONITE BILLY HERRERO The Brazilian Sensation"

"opens . . . tomorrow night"

"See the most exciting personality you ever saw! BILLY HERRERO — Vivid Latin impressions. Spitfire of Carman Miranda, piquancy of Hedy laMarr, bombshell of emotion. The rumba, samba, conga like you've never seen before. And the finale, one that marks an artist—well, to be astonished you must see for yourself!"

"Sensational Impersonations Gipsy Rose Lee and Carmen Miranda"

"Sensational Impersonations"

"sensational mimic of the female impersonator school"

"SMALL WONDER that Billy inspired Life and Look magazine features!" "You'd swear you're applauding Gypsy Rose Lee, Hedy LaMarr, Carmen Miranda. And you'll see a finale to startle you out of your seat (mum! if you've seen the show; don't spoil the fun for others.)"

"South American Bombshell"

"the finale stars the Spanish-English singing star of the club, Billy Herrero. The Li-Kar costume worn by Herrero during the elaborate spectacle is typical of the era which saw the origination of the hat dance, and, according to the Hollywood designer, it is completely authentic."

"The main attraction, Billy Herrero's impersonations of women, fails to register and Billy leaves the stage with the audience clinging to the impression that he really is a 'she.' His act is slow, and while he is dressed in much the manner Carmen Miranda would garb herself, his voice doesn't sound at all like the popular move actress."

"The new 'Gay Boy Revue' [edition] will headline Billie Herraro, who calls himself the Brazilian Gypsy Rose Lee."
