Although Old Hollywood legends and royal princesses alike may have been revered for their enviable style and penchant for luxury, they also grappled with troubled upbringings and tumultuous relationships throughout their lifetimes. Delving past the curtain of glamorous celebrity, Secret Moments is a series humanizing the icons of yesterday.

Judy Garland was more than a movie star. As a multi-skilled performer in both dancing, singing, and acting–she made her film debut as a teenager, and then took both Hollywood sets and Broadway stages by storm throughout her 45-year-long career. Fame aside, nearly 50 years after her passing much of the star's life is still veiled in mystery. In honor of her upcoming birthday, CR uncovers some of those moments from her life–including what her signature perfume was, as well as little known facts about the filming of The Wizard of Oz. For one: did you know that Dorothy was supposed to be a blonde?
