Blind Item #3 - Old Hollywood
This actress was A+ list and even though she won an Academy Award she is probably best known now for what was written about her rather than her acting. A little addendum to that might be necessary because some of her sexual history is coming out and one of the things she enjoyed doing most was having a man pee on her. I guess an Academy Award winner and Kim Kardashian have something in common after all.
Joan Crawford?

ReplyDeleteThat 5'2, stumpy legged upstart ginger round heel Lucille Le.. er, Joan Crawford.
ReplyDeleteAnd KK couldn't hold her umbrella.
Mary Astor. Notorious for her torrid affair with George S. Kaufman, which led to a scandalous public divorce from her husband, with tons of publicity including publication of steamy excerpts from her diary. Won an Oscar for "The Great Lie" (1941). Can't say as I've heard any news about her lately though.
ReplyDeleteAs an aside, when Kaufman was asked to comment about their affair and Astor's divorce he replied, "You may say that I did not keep a diary."
Joan for sure.
ReplyDeleteYeah--Joan's the only one who fits the "known for being written about,"--namely _Mommie Dearest_
ReplyDeleteWhat is up with the golden showers. What next, feces?
ReplyDeleteHuh. I always thought the showers were for the peeER, not the peeEE
ReplyDeleteI'm a f__king lady so I got me a hard and fast rule: No #2 unless you ask first. Unless you're real cute.
ReplyDeleteImagine her being alive today and reading this. And that. And the other thing. Wild!
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of feces.....I just finished book called "Full Service"--written by a fellow who basically played pimp out of a service station on Hwood blvd after WWII. (Discovered/picked up by Walter Pidgeon of all people.) He tells all....including a savory story about Charles Laughton. (I got it from the library.)
ReplyDelete@ Hootspa, awesome info-it's called "Full Service" ?
ReplyDelete-well there's a 'Book On Tape' golden oppurtunity for Cracker Barrel's DVD loan service.
Seriously disgusting!
