While working as a model in New York City, Lucille Ball posed for a painting in an elegant dress. The painter later added in two greyhounds for a touch of class. He then sold the picture to Chesterfield Cigarettes, and overnight, Lucille's picture was all over New York. At the last minute, an agent for Eddie Cantor's "Roman Scandals", a Hollywood movie to be filmed, approached Lucille. She said they for the movie, they were using 12 well-known poster girls, and one girl had dropped out. So, Lucille was cast, and ever since, she remained in Hollywood.
