I used to deliver flowers for a flourist here in Savannah and every friday she would get a dozen roses from someone who only said "a friend". She was always so sweet and friendly if not overly flirtatious. I used to look forward to fridays. What an awesome woman
She wasn't even old ugh Lady Chablis is an icon a beauty, I hilarious & was always beat (make-up on point!) She'll be missed entertain them in heaven doll! 3😢💔🥰😍❤️💯
Midnight....single-handedly made me want to go to Savannah, GA. I love Lady Chablis & would love to see her show! And I always forget Clint Eastwood directed this!
What a fabulous lady! Has anyone read her autobiography “hiding my candy”? I just recently watched the midnight in the garden of good and evil and I’m in love with this woman!
You posted a long time ago but yes! I did read her book & I loved it. The forward where she and her friends broke into the house of the woman “who stole my man” & they made the woman’s clothes smaller? I still laugh about that. She was one in a million.
I remember watching it live in the 80's. They didn't even have chairs and people just sat on the floor. We didn't care. And to answer The Lady Chablis, No, we didn't get lost. She was always gracious and a true Southern Belle. RIP The Lady Chablis.
Sad to read that The Lady has died. She added much to the movie with her 'elegance' and wry wit. Too bad the movie didn't live up to the promise of the book - but that had nothing to do with 'The Doll's performance. R.I.P Brenda Dale Knox (previously Benjamin Edward Knox), known as 'The Lady Chablis'.
Unlike Bruce Jenner, Lady Chablis had class, charm AND knew he was an IMPERSONATION of women, which is not only very respectful toward women BUT accurate. RIP QUEEN DIVA
Inward The Lady Chablis WAS a woman. Every molecule. Bruce Jenner is a huge man wearing women's clothes and makeup with long hair. He's a delusional fraud -- mentally unwell. Chablis was psychologically healthy. God bless her. She deserved a best-supporting actress award for "Midnight in the Garden....."
...My mama told me when I was young We are all born superstars She rolled my hair and put my lipstick on In the glass of her boudoir "There's nothing wrong with loving who you are" She said, "'Cause he made you perfect, babe" "So hold your head up girl and you'll go far, Listen to me when I say" I'm beautiful in my way 'Cause God makes no mistakes I'm on the right track, baby I was born this way Don't hide yourself in regret Just love yourself and you're set I'm on the right track, baby I was born this way Oh there ain't no other way Baby I was born this way Baby I was born this way Oh there ain't no other way Baby I was born this way I'm on the right track, baby I was born this way Don't be a drag ‒ just be a queen... _And she definitely was that_ *A QUEEN*! RIP The Lady Chablis and thank you for being a pioneer for us.
Lady Chablis.... I love you, I was just in Savannah and I so widsed we could have had a tea or apple Schnapps date! You are wonderful and My tour loves you!
And during my presence for the second time - she was introduced with among other lines "AND she can sho fry some chicken too honey!!" ..... via Atlanta GA, Miss Continental "at large"
Every time she came to Pittsburgh she hit in my husband - that didn’t bother me, it was the fact she never took him back to Savannah with her that pissed me off.
She still rocks!. But I have heard as people mature if say they are strong right or left when they are young are very fiery. As people age they become calmer. Plus she is being the person. When people are on stage it is different. You can't be loud and crazy all the time. It would be fun but you can't...
“female impersonator”… absolutely not!! that part had me so upset! no! she was not “impersonating” a woman! Lady Chablis WAS the woman!!! my god, what a sad thing to hear.
A fucked up boy??? He's got the guts to be whatever he wants to be. How many of YOU hav the balls to live a life you choose for yourself, not a life someone else chooses for you. Fucked up? I don't think so. What others think doesn't mean a thing. It's what you think that matters most. Who would you be if there was no blame and no shame? Think about it.
The CHABLIS is french white wine that has to be served fresh/It's also a town and a territory of A.O.C. grapewine...Did she ask for the Licence?? I like the character(and the movie) but she's not so "fresh" enough now, is she?? PEACE
@JSasRays: Have some damn respect - she lives as a female so use the proper pronoun. If you are so uptight about transgendered people, why are you even on here commenting?

Could have been anyone, but I like to think Clint...Cusack..or Spacey.
What a cool story
Thanks for sharing your story ❤️
Heaven got some sparkle today. RIP Lady Chablis.
I just love her !

Never met her, but she seem like a very sweet and lovely lady. R.I.P.

Beautiful and vivacious - we all need a friend like The Lady Chablis RIP
She died regrettably young, at 59. I loved her in the film, thus in life.
RIP. Lady Chablis. You made your mark.

Town Black Televison well said..
Way to miss the point entirely.

A sure fine DOLL indeed. R.I.P LADY CHABLIS aka THE DOLL.
RIP LADY CHABLIS YOU WILL BE MISSED IN SAVANNAH GA!

🌹Classy Lady Chablis...loved you in Midnight in the Garden and love you now.....🥀RIP beautiful lady.......
for he to be 57 she still looks damn good...that means she is really takin care of herself!
I am surprise there someone didn't start a House of Chablis in her honor on the ballroom circuit.
Maybe it can be you....
Oh, thank you so much for posting! The Lady Chablis is absolutely precious.
Much Repect to the Lady Chablis,A TRUE INSPIRATION.
"... and i'm gonna be this gal going MMMMM, the new south ! ", I love you Lady Chablis...
She sort of reminds me of Eartha Kitt. hehehe Shes amazing this Lady Chablis.. .hehehe hugs and love
I wish wish the movement of today would listen to her words. Because they have done messed it all up for themselves.
...My mama told me when I was young
We are all born superstars
She rolled my hair and put my lipstick on
In the glass of her boudoir
"There's nothing wrong with loving who you are"
She said, "'Cause he made you perfect, babe"
"So hold your head up girl and you'll go far,
Listen to me when I say"
I'm beautiful in my way
'Cause God makes no mistakes
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way
Don't hide yourself in regret
Just love yourself and you're set
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way
Oh there ain't no other way
Baby I was born this way
Baby I was born this way
Oh there ain't no other way
Baby I was born this way
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way
Don't be a drag ‒ just be a queen...
_And she definitely was that_ *A QUEEN*!
RIP The Lady Chablis and thank you for being a pioneer for us.

She used to live down the street from me. Very nice person.
R.I.P,seems like a sweet lady.
Beautiful on the inside as well as the out ❤👍
Lady Chablis.... I love you, I was just in Savannah and I so widsed we could have had a tea or apple Schnapps date! You are wonderful and My tour loves you!
Excellent! Love her, such a dynamo!
Now that woman had balls !!!!!!!
RIP, doll.
talent talent talent! i love her!
Goodnight my Lady
Lady Chablis was no “female impersonator.” She is an actual female. And I don’t say that lightly about someone who has balls!!!
"WeRKk MSs. GiRLl".....! OKkaYy....."R.I.P."
And during my presence for the second time - she was introduced with among other lines "AND she can sho fry some chicken too honey!!"
..... via Atlanta GA, Miss Continental "at large"
She is a fabulous entertainer and she made the movie "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil" totally entertaining. How old is she? Does anyone know?
It’s sad that club one looks the same as it did when it first opened. They need to shut it down and renovate the whole building from top to bottom!
love her❤❤❤
Fantastique!
i'm readin that book in english glass and its awesome so far
RIP ..................................
RIP Lady!!!
Miss her
Every time she came to Pittsburgh she hit in my husband - that didn’t bother me, it was the fact she never took him back to Savannah with her that pissed me off.
Wish I could have met The Lady.......

RIP, you left your mark
the lady chablis steals the show.
When I was in Savannah last week I was told she'll be disposing of the "candy" very soon!
Miss you...❤️
Rest In Peace.............
Jada Essence Hall brought me here

The Lady C completely stole that film.
I love her
Goodbye Chablis.
Legendary
The Lady may not perform in Florida or Texas or Tennessee
I loved her so sorry to hear of her death
Rip..
Rest In Peace
💋
RIP
We couldn’t tell back the. If this was a Trans ⚧️ most of us thought 💭 it was just a 🚬 Smoker s voice
rip
Wonder what she really passed from. 50's is young to be ill and died. :(
Dang she's real??
Does she still hide the candy?
“female impersonator”… absolutely not!! that part had me so upset! no! she was not “impersonating” a woman! Lady Chablis WAS the woman!!! my god, what a sad thing to hear.
Her shows are VERY hit and miss. Depends on her mood. I live here and have seen her show several times. She is funny about 50% of the time.
So, the lady Chablis is a transvestite?
A fucked up boy??? He's got the guts to be whatever he wants to be. How many of YOU hav the balls to live a life you choose for yourself, not a life someone else chooses for you. Fucked up?

I like the character(and the movie) but she's not so "fresh" enough now, is she??
PEACE
She is the Grand Empress, the Doll, does she still have her candy?
The Lady Chablis is the only transgender/transvestite that I refer to as a she, that's because she does it so well!
@laarbe him*
Rip. Met her once kinda rude and snobbish not very pretty either the show was blah.
She really was beautiful. One of a kind ❤
She was so special ♥️
