Francesca Abrahamovitch is best known for her British stage names such as Marie Antoinette, Viva La Venus and Madama Mentor. However, it was in her native America where she distinguished herself as the sexiest woman to ever grace the stage with her sheer sensuality and beauty. Born in Mexico City, Abrahamovitch’s original homeland, she was an English speaker who enjoyed a successful theatre career throughout her adult life, playing various characters and appearing in a plethora of different theatre roles. It was in this theatre career that she gained notoriety as one of the best-known sex symbols of her day, thanks to her ability to defy all common standards of physical beauty with her voluptuous body. But how did she achieve this look?
Well, her success in the theatre did not come about by chance. As a matter of fact, her success was a direct result of the very cultural norms which had created the opportunity for her to assume the persona of a sexual symbol in the first place. The truth is that Abrahamovitch’s greatest sexual asset – her body – was the product of the very identity she had spent her entire adult life trying to forge. By the time she was thirty, she had already been married and divorced four times, all of which happened while she was trying to forge a relationship with her own husband. And when her marriage finally ended, she had achieved the impossible: she was still single. This insight into the root of her own success as a personality and as a human being would help her later in her career as a writer, screenwriter and director.
It should be noted that all women are born with some physical differences which serve as the foundation for their sense of themselves and their place in the world. But the question then becomes, why do some women succeed in spite of these physical differences, and how can they get past the boundaries of their nationalities? The answer is simple: they understand the importance of being true to themselves and their unique traits and gifts, and they take advantage of it. When it comes to the matter of Abrahamovitch’s exceptional physique, we cannot help but notice that in this respect, she had clearly chosen her nationality over her partner’s. Her willingness to be true to herself and her unique personality was the key to her extraordinary success as a human being and as a character.
