Butch,

According to the official Ginger Rogers website she is gone.

http://www.gingerrogers.com/about/bio4.html

"Sadly, on April 25,1995, 83 year old Ginger Rogers died as a result of congestive heart failure. Millions of fans worldwide mourned the loss of this multi-talented wonder woman. She was buried in Oakwood Memorial Park in Chatsworth, California."

Not to take away anything from the lady performing in the video but I do not
think it is Ginger Rogers.

And she sure didn't look anything like 92 to me either....but still somewhat of an inspiration...guess you really are only as old as you let yourself be.
