Poplar Person
I was born in Italy then I moved to France
I am only half figured so I cannot dance
I keep my right hand snug over my left wrist
I have an enigmatic smile though I cannot kiss
If you measure my height I'm only seventy seven
I have an Oscar thanks to Livingston and Evans
I lived with Napoleon but that was not fun
Cole put me on the Billboard eight weeks number one
Who am I?

Witty and informative.. he said with an enigmatic smile .. (Did Napolean live with the picture or the person?) I know .. read all about it at wiki .. that was probably a dumb question .. I wonder if she was hiding the tatoo on her wrist that sais "born to be bad" ..

I get the poplar thing now, I don't usually look at the name of the teaser, I just keep clickin down the line to read them. Although I've noticed that the name often helps out in the teaser.
zonahobo,
You can always ask me questions.
The only dumb question is one that is not asked.
After the French Revolution, it was moved to the Louvre. Napoleon had it moved to his bedroom in the Tuileries Palace; later it was returned to the Louvre.
I don't want to think of the yucky things he did in that room, with the dear Lady hanging on his wall.
thanx for your generous comments everyone!!!!

Excellent teaser! Really enjoyed this one!
I had an idea of Mona Lisa at the first line and I felt confirmed of my answer when I read the enigmatic smile line. Nice one Timilee, hope to see more. (After I read the answer, I said the riddle as a rap... it sounds funny as a rap! )

Hey Timi you haven't explained the clue about Cole and Billboard. ML ML they have named you, You're so like the lady with the mystic smile....OK I just googled it and there was a version by Nat King Cole. I'm more familiar with the rock version by Conway Twitty. Easy riddle - not much teasing going on here! I find your verbal battles with Ixy more entertaining!
Thanks Jimbo, i was going to tell you about the song but you beat me to the punch.
Now i got that silky song stuck in my head again.
God bless
