JMIFC'S Presidents

Answer Fans' Questions

 

Jeanette handpicked Clara Rhoades 48 years ago to be the President of her Fan Club; something no one else in the world can say.  Clara and Tessa know the real truth about our Golden Diva, not tales, gossip, or fictitious hearsay. 

 

The JMFC  has been honored for the past 6 years to post their Articles, Comments, and Issues.  Like many of Jeanette's fans know, the two JMIFC Presidents still love entertaining your questions; and more importantly -- giving you the real, true answers like only they can.

EXCLUSIVE!!!

 

Fans ask Clara and Tessa to set the record Straight on Attacks on Jeanette!

 

Scientific FACT now lays to rest

forever any wild claims.

 

(WGN Medical News Report Link (October 16, 2006) proves that JMIFC has been right all these years about the impossibility for Blossom to have ever been able to speak about Jeanette after she had her stroke and had aphasia.   

WGN MEDICAL REPORT VIDEO 10-16-2006 ABOUT APHASIA

 

The question everyone asks is--where was the tape recorder.  There were miniature, portable tape recorders in the early 1960s.  Seeing that writers and real journalists employ these devices when interviewing a person, one would think that this would have been done with any interview Blossom gave! But we have not seen or heard of any such tapes.  If there was, it would put many issues to rest of anyone purporting Blossom spoke reams about many private parts of her sister, Jeanette's life.  When we ask for these tapes, all we get is dead silence.  As far a the whole world knows, there has never been any tapes available to the public for literature support for statements puts forth in books, journals or net postings to help one believe that Blossom ever spoke to anyone about Jeanette.  If one was to take it one step further, why would Blossom give a "tell all" to a nobody, no matter how old or young, instead of to a national magazine who would have paid a nice price for this "supposedly special "Exclusive" story? 

 

It is not the first time there have been "made-up" stories.  Just in the past few years we have seen Pulitzer Prize recipients for journalistic reporting called on the journalistic carpet to defend their stories, only to be proven fakes.  There have been fakes throughout the ages, and there are still well and alive today.  So, to all of those who wish us to believe the fables they write about Jeanette, start with the TAPES of Blossom first.  Without these tapes for proof, there is nothing else believable, even if they claim they may have hundred's of tapes of other people. 

 

As for Wikipedia--this site that has been proven not to be accurate or factual, and called also called on the carpet for many falsehoods posted there.  Anyone may posted statements!  In cases, posting tend to use as a basis of supported any source in printed.  However, when the sources they use for support are not supported themselves, it winds up in a vicious cycle.  One fable chasing another fable, until it snowballs into a bottomless pit, where the real truth has been buried, and only a rash of writing that anyone can makeup using other unsupported materials continues to rear their incorrect fairy tales. 

 

There was a fairy tale that was placed out in the public that we were suppose to believe.  It was just one of hundreds, but in trying to keep the record correct -- for further indication that Clara and Tessa have always been correct, G.D. Hamann blog posted an article stating exactly where Jeanette was during her concert tours, and how another "so-called" source reported she was elsewhere is very questionable. It is also interesting to know that Jeanette dislike flying, especially back then.  If our fans keep in mind, this article was written when these stars were alive, you will notice it states they were at least 350 miles apart.  If this was not true, both Jeanette and Nelson would have set the record correct immediately.  Seeing it never happened, they never had to, proving we only hear fairy tales after they have passed on.  It is sad to think Jeanette is being used to make a buck for others.  Nevertheless, Jeanette's True Loyal Fans know better, and keep on asking --  "Where are the Blossom's tapes talking about Jeanette?"


"1/1/1940 EHE Harrison Carroll
Hundreds of fans are writing Jeanette MacDonald and Nelson Eddy, begging the stars to give at least one joint concert when they go on their singing tours in February after New Moon is finished.
Unfortunately, this can't be arranged, not this year. Both Jeanette and Nelson are booked completely and, never at any time during their tours, are they closer than 350 miles to each other.
Looking at it commercially, there would be no point to a joint concert, anyway. Appearing alone, the stars sell out every performance."

 

We will continue to respond to all of your comments on this issue, and post when we have real, concrete facts, not just fairy tales.

The beauty and grace of Jeanette still lives strong today around the world.  She was more than the greatest singer, the most beautiful woman, a true artist in every way--she was also a true, devoted, loving Queen to all of her fans.  Jeanette cherished her adoring fans and made every effort to bring joy to them personally, whenever and wherever she went.  She welcomed them with open arms at her concerts, social events, and yes--by writing to them. 

 

JMFC has written about her many different times, and by all of the JMFC's fans gracious emails, there is no doubt that Jeanette is still the Queen they love the most.  We know she would have been thrilled how you have continued to visit this website devoted to her and if she was with us, would have told you herself right here.  We know this because her two Greatest fans, Clara and Tessa, the presidents of the JMIFC would have been right at her side telling her how you love her, as they tell us.

 

June was a very important month for our Golden Diva.  She was born in June, met her true sweetheart, Gene in June, and she married her beloved in June. Yes, June is a great month for all of her True Loyal Fans to have a magnificent reason to celebrate.  So, let's do that!  Let us join hands from around the globe and make this June the best time of our lives.
