She signed a contract with Paramount and began making Hollywood films, becoming one of the best-paid actors of the era.
Although she continued to arrive in a few films in the ‘50s, ‘60s, and ‘70s, she spent most of that second touring the world as a hugely popular inhabit cabaret performer.
Throughout her career, she was recognizable for challenging gender assumptions, often dressing in tuxedos. She would frequently open her live show in a glamorous gown and then do the second part in a tuxedo, singing songs that were more often performed by men.
She also wore her famous tux, flirted with, and kissed a woman in the clip M Marlene Dietrich was one of old Hollywood’s most powerful pansexual women. In a career spanning 50 years, Dietrich performed in over three dozen movies, as well as countless stage productions and cabarets. A German by birth, she was a committed supporter of the allied forces during World War II and a staunch anti-fascist who was openly critical of the Nazi regime.

Born Marie Magdelena Dietirch in Berlin, Germany in , it was clear from a very initial age that Marie was strong-willed. By her 11th birthday, she had already combined her given names to establish "Marlene", an extraordinary name for the time.

She was fluent I mean this in the nicest way she was a piece of work. Frankly, very few have designed their image more carefully than Dietrich. She didn't coincidentally say or do much of anything. It was all part of her grand design. Believe it or not, she was a little bit shy, sometimes withdrawn, occasionally easily hurt. She could also be hurtful, forthright, maddening, haughty, tough, controlling and unsurprisingly frank about who she was and who she wasn't. Kind, thoughtful, savvy, glittering. She was right in the middle of that great gathering of Hollywood lesbians in the thirties and forties. We did an earlier piece on them, Sapphic Traffic. Dietrich was unlike most of them, to say the least. She rather flouted her lesbianism where most did not. She loved wearing men's clothing and did so often in her work particularly.
