I read Bettie Davis bigorgaphy sometime ago, and was really disappointed. I was hoping she was gonna tell alot of stories about her feud with Joan Crawford. But she acted like it never really happened.

Hi Slutty Mary
I don't know if they necessarily qualify as divas, but Clara Bow: Runnin' Wild by David Stenn and Louise Brooks: A Biography by Barry Paris are two of my favorites.
According to the coffee table book The Power Of Glamour, Carol Lombard stopped Fredrich March's sexual advances on the set of Nothing Sacred by inviting him into her dressing room for a drink and allowing him to rub his hand up her thigh where she had strapped on a dildo.

Carole Lombard was made of awesome. She used up all the awesome in her day. There's none left for any of the starlets of today. I remember reading where someone walked in on her in her dressing room when she was lightening her pubic hair. She was completely unfazed and just said, "Can't you see I'm making my collar match my cuffs?" |

Whoa, Jean Spangler was real? I just read The Song is You, and had no idea! Megan Abbot's books are so good, there's only 3 so far. Thank you for mentioning this! I made the same connection but thought perhaps I was hallucinating reading the book. I wasn't in love with the book but definitely find it more interesting now. |

Are you sure that's not just studio-generated gossip to market Chinatown? Nope, it's the truth. The same thing happened to Eric Clapton and Ted Bundy. Unlike Clapton, Nicholson never did find out who his father was. So I guess doing that could produce either serial-killers or super-talented artists. Hmm... maybe I should post in the pregnancy thread. Just kidding! |

I've always been amused by the stories about the size of Milton Berle's dick. Apparently it was the stuff of legend.

I know someone who used to work in the agency where Berle had been represented (for eons, obviously). He was the only stah! who required the employees to address him as "Mister". Mel was Mel, Kevin was Kevin, but he was always and only "Mr. Berle". He also had no qualms about, um, proving the rumors by presenting his manhood at the slightest provocation. Makes for nice lunch conversation, doncha think?!  Also, my dad met Berle at some event (a golf event, maybe), and said that Berle was the foulest human being that he (my dad) had ever met. Considering my dad had survived three major wars, that doesn't speak well for Berle. |
