Eighty-one years ago today, Betty Boop made her debut on the big screen. Known as one of the first animated sex symbols, Boop cartoons became popular for being shown before full-length films in theaters during the 1930s. Here, we've rounded up clips of some of her most memorable (and, um, least offensive) performances to celebrate the anniversary.
