Bessie Smith was a phenomenal singer and she enjoyed milkshakes and bacon between songs.

Oh give me a break! LOL. She was indeed a phenomenal singer as well as dancer, comedian, etc. She was "strictly show biz" as her niece stated. There are many interesting, hysterically funny, bawdy facts about Bessie Smith. Read Chris Albertson's book, "Bessie" or get the CD of her nieces interviews. Very funny stuff.
