Betty Boop's Rise to Fame is a 1934 Fleischer Studios animated short film, starring Betty Boop.
Plot
In a live action sequence, a reporter interviewing Max Fleischer asks him about Betty Boop. Max obligingly draws Betty "out of the inkwell" and asks her to perform a couple of numbers. Song and dance numbers from Stopping the Show, Betty Boop's Bamboo Isle, and The Old Man of the Mountain are used.
In the end, Betty jumps back into the inkwell, accidentally splashing ink into the reporter's face.
