Trivia

  • Betty Boop is not actually saying "Boop", she says "Poo" and "Poop" in her debut. If you listen carefully you can hear the word "P". Given that Margie Hines had won a Helen Kane "Poo-Poo-Pah-Doo" competition a year earlier, this would make sense.
  • In his singing dialogue, Bimbo says "Boop".
  • An old 1920s saying was that girls make "Poopy" and boys go "Boopy".
  • While Betty Boop is singing, there's a female background chorus humming along to the tune of "I Have To Have You".
