There are no harmful effects of nicotine and you will find no research saying otherwise. It’s the 4000 chemicals used in making cigarettes, which turn into 8000 chemicals when you lit it, that for sure will kill you.

Lucille Ball was considered by many to be a private person in her personal life but in her professional career, marriages to Desi Aranz and Gary Morton and friendships with people of all races, backgrounds and sexual orientations indicates that she was generally a open minded human being. However, Lucille Ball did have many conservative views on sex, drugs and the 1960s counterculture due to her upbringing. Her professional decisions in running her company were also influential in helping achieve civil rights for racial minorities and women. Lucille Ball was not a racist person but she did have a strong mixture of liberal and conservative views which by 21st century standards would make her a moderate.

Actually, yes she did. She smoked since she was a teen, as you probably know she did on I Love Lucy. She quit around 1985 because her doctor advised her to.
