Propaganda
Amália Rodrigues (Fado, a Singer's Story)— I'm gonna be very real with you, the idea of calling Amália hot is kind of unfathomable to me because she's always seemed like some sort of near-mythical entity that went beyond that. But after submitting a bunch of other Portuguese movie stars it occurred to me I couldn't leave her out and she was a beautiful woman. So here she is. She was (and still is in the entire country's collective minds) a singer first and foremost, thee singer of all time actually (of fado). But she also did movies, quite a few of them, often about fado. As a singer she's basically the definition of fado, you wanna know what the genre is about you go listen to her. And be ready for her to make you cry. Linked example
Françoise Dorleac (L'homme de Rio, Les Demoiselles de Rochefort)— One of the first actresses I had a crush on and still is. I want to cry every time I think about her because she is one of many with a tragic story but I just want to include her because she deserves it
This is round 1 of the tournament. All other polls in this bracket can be found here. Please reblog with further support of your beloved hot sexy vintage woman.

What's your favourite piece of Portugal's heritage and why?
It's hard to pick just one I love my culture so much but the Minho traditional clothes will always hold a place in my heart.
Fado, our very emotional song genre is also so hauntingly beautiful and its queen, Amália Rodrigues is an icon to me.
And lastly but not least, our deep catholic roots and our Lady's apparition, in 1917.

A halhatatlan Amália Rodrigues a zseniális @vhils (Alexandre Farto) által készített portréja Alfamában. A háttérben az a kicsi ház Lisszabon legrégebbi, több mint 500 éves épségben maradt lakóépülete, amely még az 1755-ös nagy földrengést is túlélte.
📌 Alfama - Lisboa

AMALIA RODRIGUES
"Estranha forma de vida"
Foi por vontade de Deus
Que eu vivo nesta ansiedade
Que todos os ais são meus
Que é toda minha a saudade
Foi por vontade de Deus
Que estranha forma de vida
Tem este meu coração
Vives de forma perdida
Quem lhe daria o condão?
Que estranha forma de vida
Coração independente
Coração que não comando
Vives perdido entre a gente
Teimosamente sangrando
Coração independente
E eu não te acompanho mais
Para deixa de bater
Se não sabes onde vais
Porque teimas em correr
Eu não te acompanho mais
Se não sabes onde vais
Para deixa de bater
Eu não te acompanho mais
