From croaker sack to Chinchilla, Orson Welles called Eartha Kitt 'the most exciting woman in the world'. But in 1968 she was blacklisted for 'making the 1st Lady cry.' 'I Want To Be Evil' chronicles Eartha's destitute childhood, her affair with the Revlon heir, her kinship with Sammy Davis Jr. and her volatile relationship with Hollywood.
René Marie – singer, actress, writer. Earth Kitt – singer, actress, writer. Never before has there been a vocal recording devotion to the divine Ms. Kitt and her fiery, sensual, and clever interpretations of songs. With her incredible range of vocal ability, powerful emotional resonance and strong independent streak, René is without a doubt the right artist to conceive of this historic project on the adventurous, multi-Grammy-nominated label Motéma Music. I Wanna Be Evil (With Love to Eartha Kitt) is René's third recording for the label and her 10th career album.
