She was 64 years old here, folks! She'd stayed in training, that's clear to see! Love her!!!

God what was she her in her sixties...what a work horse she was! WHAT a talent, I wanted to change my name to Ann because of her!

She was incredibly nice to her fans! I waited at 14 outside the Papermill Theater and she signed one of my favorite autographs. She brought the house to her feet doing Panama Hattie and looked so beautiful! Years later doing Follies she took pictures with fans. What a Lady! What a talent! Such a a gem!

She was and always will be the greatest all round singer dancer in Entertainment History. Pure showbiz and the nicest lady ever!

what a class act! love Ann Miller! such energy and talent, and no diva attitude...the golden generation, Today we have Mamma Mia..:(

Miller, Garland , Astaire, Fitzgerald to name a few truly great talents that are physically gone now , but never forgotten . We owe it to further generations to remember their amazing legacies . Thank God we have their bodies of work digitally or on film that we can enjoy for years to come . The years of joy they’ve given me they’ll never know ...

She still had it!!

ohhhhhh myyyyyy godddddd.......I cant believe this. The great Ann Miller !!! WOW !!!

talent , beauty, legs for days , Ann had it all ,she was electric to watch on the screen stars like her and judy will never be seen again ,but we will have them for ever on film !!!!!!!

They don't make SUPERSTARS like they use too, love her!!!

Hard to imagine the hours of practice and training that she endured all through her career to put on the shows she did - even towards the end. Always a perfectionist and star!

Man...imagine being able to tap dance with Ann Miller. An absolute privilege it must’ve been.

My Mom was a NATIVE HOUSTONIAN and so PROUD of ANN MILLER....my Mom was born in 1930 and there were only 220,000 people in Houston at that time......one of them was ANN MILLER.....what a talent!!!

There is no fakery, there are no gimmicks here, only sheer artistry and craftsmanship. What a dancer she was!

Fabulous! In her sixties and she is still the greatest. Wish her and Eleanor Powell could have had a duet together. That would have been unbelievable. If anyone knows of one, please let me know.

Ann Miller A dedication of hard work and a treasure to the entertainment industry of an era past but not forgotten

Her life story is amazing. At 13 she was a star and everyone thought she was 18. She used a fake birth certificate. So her age is often listed incorrectly. What a gal.

What an energetic gal Ann was!!!! She kept her machine gun taps as well as her great spins for a LONG time!

What an amazing, hard-working, beautiful lady she was! Always loved Annie!

This is just totally amazing. I have the show taped from years ago and seeing this rehearsal just proves even more how fabulous and talented Miss Miller was and is, I adore her xxx

Wow this is amazing - and the more times you watch it the more little details you pick up - like how she even went to the bother of wearing a brooch on her dance suite - and watch her get that guys attention at 4:18 - she knew how to work the crown even in a room with only 5 people in it - Love love love Annne Miller - its people like her that made America great - because they were great

After seeing her life story, she got my respect - far beyond other Hollywood types. This clip proves she lived to perform w/ excellence.

Wow what a find. I love it. She kept her voice and moves to the end

You can see the whole number by looking under Chasing the Blues 1987....it opens with Lee Roy Reams, Don Correia, Gregg Burge and Hinton Battle doing some amazing tapping on a staircase. Worth it!

How fabulous!! Such professionalism . Loved the rehearsal footage😊

She was amazing at every age.❤

People aren't the best because they work hard, They work hard because they are the best.

Wow!!!!!!! THAT is showbiz!

My idol! She still did it old school, recording her taps with a smile on her face. The ultimate professional! Showbiz through and through.

What a wonder! I am re-posting this because it is so prescient today. True story. My pal, Scot Stewart was in SUGAR BABIES w/Ann. Scot: "Annie, are you working Passover?" Ann: "Oh, honey, I NEVER do game shows!" Gotta love her.

Lovely to see her tapping "live" for a change, rather than miming to a dubbed performance! (Also cool to see how the dubbed taps are recorded.)

I just love Ann Miller! That’s not an inner tube around her midriff, it’s a brace from being thrown down the stairs by a husband when she was nine months pregnant. She lost that child. It was the only one she ever had.

I just love Ann Miller 💖 💃🏻

For the absolute joy of it. What a talent.

It's those spins for me :)

One word: TALENT! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

When stars looked fab, could and DID sing while doing their amazing routines: and not some 2 minute fluff, but a whole production number! Amazing lady!

She really does not appear to be winded either. Very impressive.

ann miller is my favorite dancer and singer at all times, that s the damm trruth !!!

Even though she was in her sixties and had put on weight--which was natural--she still had a fastest feet around, faster than Eleanor Powell. Like watching lightning dance across the horizon!

Go, ANNIE ...!

TREMENDOUS PHENOMENA!!!!!! ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

nice. a childhood friend's chosin, Ros Curry, was the lead Sugarbaby, in SUGARBABIS, on Broadway. Ann was such a professional....put VERYTHING on the stage performance.

That was extraordinary to see. A consumant professional. Thanks for sharing the process that went into that performance.

joy... pure joy

As a fellow Texan, I salute not only her unique talent but her courage. I just read the hidden story of her marriage y to the millionaire who threw her down the stairs, killing her unborn child and breaking her back.

What a great number. Walter Painter is a master.

Got to love her RIP

I'm exhausted just watching her. How the hell can she do this at her age blows my mind. Work ethic up the ying yang!!! Smiling, arms, keeping perfect time. What an AMAZING woman.

Wow fabulous!!! She’s a star ⭐️

What a talent that lady had

SHE'S A ...W O W ....!!!!

LEGS MILLER!!!

that great big gorgeous smile, too.

Brilliant and her 1948 solo was stupendous

Incredible; Fabulous; Beautiful-there are not enough words to describe this legend.

THAT'S a LEGEND.

I watch this like once a month lol. ICONIC!

Fabulous!

Wow!!!!!!!

Living for this footage!!! Thank you!!!

What a treat. Love her!

I remember reading somewhere that she was and remains the fastest tap dancer in history, tapping at, approximately, 1000 taps a minute at full strength. Watching her, as I will this weekend, in "Easter Parade" dancing to "Shaking the Blues Away", alone, tapping her way into history books then with Fred Astaire, more ballroom, in "It Only Happens When I Dance With You" are 2 great numbers My favorite, though....is a song that wasn't originally in the Broadway show though written by the same composer/lyricist, Cole Porter, in "Kiss Me Kate", dancing "From This Moment On" with so many great dancers from Bib Fosse, who they let choreograph his bit with Carol Haney to Tommy Rall (Seven Brides For Seven Brothers...and I believe he was 'Frankincense') .....3 couples dancing amazingly to an amazing song. Imagine that her own father, an esteemed lawyer, forged her birth certificate so she could work at 13 but say she was 18. She was so tall. She was all class, though occasionally played a not so nice hoofer. Left the world too soon but will always be remembered, for her being a performer and archivist in being able to talk about Hollywood when Hollywood was what we believe it to be. Especially MGM! Brava, Ms. Miller.

Legend annie !!! ♥️

That is a star.

Thank you.

Love Annie- check out my tribute here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/isudddF_x8rHeIU.html

Who is the choreographer in the rehearsal room? And the director should never be allowed to shoot a musical number - all those pointless shots from behind - what do they do exactly?
