Tossup

A song sung by this character was adapted into English as “Dat’s Love” for a film adaptation with an all-black cast that gave her the surname “Jones.” This character throws a flower to a man while singing a song comparing herself to a “rebellious (10[1])bird.” (10[5])This character chooses the toreador Escamillo as her lover (10[1])over Don (10[1])José, who then stabs her to death at a bullfight. For 10 points, name this Romani woman who sings the “Habanera” in an opera titled for her by composer Georges Bizet. ■END■ (10[1])
