Sammy Davies Jr ..
Did anyone watch Bruce Forsyths documentary on him last night on ITV? He suffered a lot of racism in the early days of his career. How very talented he was though from very young.Here he is at the age of just 6!!

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.I am not sure if it was covered in the TV program but Sammy Davis was going out with Kim Novak and they wanted to marry.
But the film studios who managed Kim Novak, an attractive blond haired white woman, did not want her marrying a black man.
So the studio sent some "heavies" round to Sammy Davis Jr warning him off Kim Novak and said his life would get very unpleasant if he carried on seeing her.
