  3. Wow what a scumbag:

    https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-6957761/Shocking-casting-couch-claims-surface-late-actor-Mickey-Rooney.html

    "According to a 2015 biography, Mickey had an illicit affair with Elizabeth Taylor on set of National Velvet when she was just 14 and he was 24."

    "Craig apparently heard countless stories of Mickey lining up 'auditions' with aspiring young actresses 'for roles that didn't exist'.

    As Craig puts it, 'Mickey almost wore out the casting couch'. "

  4. Girl Crazy for the film? With Judy Garland, on its IMDB trivia page it says filming went way over schedule.

  5. This is really no big deal since Louis b meyer and the studio heads had the secretary pool serving up blow jobs every afternoon after lunch at the office.

  6. National Velvet didn't start fliming until 44, they churned them out fast in those days.

  8. Howard hughes was ten times worse. Didnt he keep eva Gardner as a virtual sex slave for years according to the dm

  9. I thought Mickey, too!

    And Liz Taylor at 14 was like most women at 34.

  10. He had a Napoleanic Complex...
    I still laugh whenever describes something exceptionally small with him. Ex: we are at dinner and she orders a wine that’s is more like a shot and she goes”so what’s with the Mickey Rooney glass”??

  11. @Michigan, So you're saying really mature 14 year olds are kosher? ;)

    1. Hughes would move the moms in to his complex when he found the freshest models fron the agencies or picked them out of ad campaigns. Then he would mold them under lock and key

  12. Howard hughes scouted all of the best tail and kept them at his house under lock and key like hefner. Rooney just got the scraps and leftovers

  14. Only way Rooney could get P*ssy forced or not was because of who he was and what he did. Those types are the worst. The geeks and undesirables with too much power int their hands. Get zero on their own merit with women AND have an axe to grind with otherwise having been or apt to be rejected on themselves alone.

  16. Agree Mickey Rooney! Not sure what movie, but ugh! Not only the casting couches and brothels, but amidst all of that, he also had some really stunning wives! Studio arrangements? Personality to end all personalities (though I thought Id heard Napoleon Complex in all aspects of personality)? Really love these Old Hollywood tales!

    1. Apparently people didn't think about potential consequences of loose "love" back then. I found an old copy of The Happy Hooker book a couple years ago and was floored by all the unprotected and oral sex. By/with "professionals", at that. It seems back then all anyone thought about was unwanted pregnancies. I'd say "Musta been nice", but a mouth (or vag) full of herp (and a lifetime of worrying about future outbreaks) doesn't seem anymore appealing than HIV or AIDS.

      Delete
    2. I feel like there’s a lot of that happening now too. The number of cheaters I hear of getting their side pieces pregnant astounds me.

    3. What aboit the +1000 cases of herp contracted as a result of this year's Coachella event? There has been a huge increase in reported cases in the Coachella/SoCal area over the past few weeks. Hipsters beware: Band t-shirt: $50. Bottled water:$10. A box of condoms and a denal dam?: Priceless.

    2. Howard Hughes wasnt bad looking way back in the day, problem is he was batshit crazy

  23. Who else could it be other than Mickey Rooney? One of the munchkins?

    ReplyDelete
  24. But Steve Buscemi is a legend. He apparently helped out with the NYC fire department after 9/11 as a volunteer. He used to be a fireman.

    1. Definitely a legend. He also narrated an HBO doc about NYC firefighters that was really good. A good person and a good actor.

  25. Saw a teaser saying Rooney 'wore out' the casting couch with young actresses for non existent roles.

    ReplyDelete
  26. Look at a couple of Rooney's old movies and you can SEE a sore on his lip. Knowing of his sex life, even I thought it was a herpes sore. Why they didn't cover it? Wouldn't look right in B/W?

    ReplyDelete
  27. What is the stigma with herpes? Over half of the population has it. HSV 1 is on the mouth. HSV 2 is on the genitals. He was kissing too much and had to halt production?

    ReplyDelete
  28. You can get either type of hsv on your genitals and your mouth.

    ReplyDelete
  29. @ Pearl a good person other than screwing underage girls and casting couch women. Yeah a real gem because he narrated a documentary. Seriously?

    ReplyDelete
  30. Oops @ Pearl. you mean Buscemi. Thought you were talking about Rooney. Buscemi is a national treasure!

    1. @kiki, I'm on the mobile version so the replies are nested, I was replying to Michelle. Yes, definitely meant Buscemi! :D

  31. Buscemi, is he the one with funky teeth....always wondered why he didn't get them fixed.

  32. There's a film camera-move called a "Mickey Rooney" - its a little creep.
