Hermione Gingold (December 9, 1897-May 24, 1987) was a British actress known for her sharp-tongued, eccentric persona, an image enhanced by her sharp nose and chin, as well as her deepening voice, a result of vocal nodes which her mother encouraged her not to remove.
Born Hermione Ferdinanda Gingold in London, she was the daughter of an high-class Austrian-born Jewish financier and Kate Walters, an English-born housewife.

 Biography for Hermione Gingold   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
She made her stage debut in 1908, thus beginning a long, commanding presence in London playing everything from Jessica in "The Merchant of Venice" to Cassandra in "Troilus and Cressida." Her flair for quirky comedy was discovered in the 30s when she appeared to scene-stealing effect in a host of musical revues.
She usually was asked to play her charming and haughty self, most notably as the aging courtesan in Gigi (1958), which won her a Golden Globe award, The Music Man (1962) and as the reminiscing grandmother in a rather pallid film version of her stage hit A Little Night Music (1977).
Gingold was a gifted raconteur and became a very popular TV talk-show guest, particularly on Jack Paar's show.

I suspect that the parody elements Hermione referred to were in the costumes and makeup; the lyrics alone, as performed by Hermione, are sufficiently witty without having to appreciate that some long gone stars were being parodied.

 Amazon.ca: Gay Purr-Ee: DVD   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Garland gives life to our young heroine, Mewsette, a naive country kitty who runs off to seek the bright lights of Gay '90s Paris; Goulet is her devoted country bumpkin beau, Jaune-Tom, who sets off to find her (accompanied by the scrappy kitten Robespierre).
It is cleverly and artfully presented, with Chuck Jones' trademark Looney Tunes-esque animation, and a sweet little story, which, though rather slim, holds the viewer's interest for every single one of its eighty-six minutes.
The story is simple: French country farm cat Mewsette (Garland, using clever vocals) is bored with her dull and listless existence, and leaves her home, her ardent suitor Jaune-Tom (Goulet, also in excellent voice), and friend Robespierre (Buttons, whose squeaky characterizations are pefect for his diminutive character).
