At 100, she can still shake it like a Polaroid picture.

 

Kay Furst, of Florida, has not let her age keep her from her passion — belly dancing.

 

"I don't feel 100," she told WPBF a week after her centennial celebration.

 

Furst doesn't quite look her age either. She dances in a sequined pink bikini top and a blue sheer skirt — an outfit she can still squeeze into 40 years after buying it.

 

Furst, a Long Island native, said she began dancing when she was 30 -- in 1944 -- "when I had a shape."

 

She worked as a hairdresser and let loose in her shop.

 

 "They used to come to my shop and they would get their hair done and invite me to come and dance in those gorgeous homes," she said.

 

Now her performances are kept to the Palm Beach senior homes where she volunteers. But she doesn't get the reactions she used to.

 

"Some of them, the senior citizens, they don't like it too much," she said.

 

Her secret to a long and healthy life? Being kind.

 

"The more you do something for somebody, God blesses you," she said in November. "And that's what I've done all my life."
