You know how someone like Jerry Hall still has a lot of the money from her ex husband? She trashes reality shows. In an interview with some British magazine of which the name escapes me, Jerry said she has been asked to do a bunch of reality shows, but with the exception of the one she did three years ago they are all trash. She refuses to be on the Dancing ones even though they call her almost weekly. She also has had offers from scores of others. Now, if Jerry were hurting for cash or starved for attention she wouldn't be burning all these bridges, she would be filling up our television screens with her face each week and filling her bank account.
Now, one way that even Jerry can see the bright side of a reality show is if they offer her enough money to crack through that shell. Apparently she was on some VH1 show called Kept. I have no idea what that was about and never heard of it, so you can tell it probably left a big impression on lots of people. But Jerry loved it, and the reason she loved it was they paid really well. So, well in fact that despite it not doing very well and was probably awful I guess there is a point where even Mick's money could use a little boost now and then.
Everytime I hear Jerry Hall's name I think of "The Andy Warhol Diaries" where Andy claims that Jerry never wore deodorant and always smelled. That and the fact she was Grace Jones roommate.
ReplyDeleteKept was a the most fabulous reality show. No marriage proposals or 'happilyeverafter'. She was looking for arm candy to make her look good and get drunk with and travel around while getting drunk and looking good. It was like Eddie was looking for a quasi-permanant escort from an Ab-Fab episode.
ReplyDeleteHonestly, if I had 12 hot half-naked men to stare at and do my bidding for a month and get PAID for it? Umm, f' yeah I'd be all over that.
ReplyDeleteREALLY?!?!?!
ReplyDeleteNever saw it, I wonder if Netflix has the season on DVD?
I saw her in person several times...very, very masculine....horse type face....
ReplyDeleteDayum, she's got twelve hot man-asses staring her right in the face there.
ReplyDeleteI'd be breaking off every fingernail squeezing as hard as I could.
But then I'd get them right out in the yard mowing the lawn and weeding the beds. Get 'em all sweaty and take all that damn product outta their hair, the gay-ass looking wussies.
Hey, I wanna see this show, they should bring it back, lol. So long as they don't recast with Janice Dickinson I'm all for it! Its called evening the score.
ReplyDeleteJerry had/has money of her own. She was a supermodel way before Naomi, Kate and Linda came along, and she's smart.
ReplyDeleteMick is a tight bastard. When they broke up after 18 years or so of marriage and three kids, he claimed the marriage ceremony wasn't legal, so he didn't owe her anything. This was before 'palimony'. Jerry did get something in the end, but probably much less than EL thinks. She was stunning in her day, and always a classy lady.
Haha, I liked "Kept" too, and I always liked Jerry Hall.
ReplyDeletei loved loved loved kept. she was great, very nononsense i want you for your dick and in exchange here is a car and house kinda show. also enty why are you taking such a dude point of view with her? its not just his money, you dont think she had to suffer through his cheating and bullshit? and like someone said above, she had her own money as well. that being said everyone above should try vh1 sites that maybe show it or youtube. it is worth renting as it is not as blatently lowclass as some of the other love/money shows around. somehow she kept the thing reasonably classy, i dont know how.
ReplyDeleteOne thing about her--I don't think she ever really trashed Mick.I think they have a decent relationship. I do remember when they were together her stating that the way to keep a man was to greet him everytime he came home with a blow-job. I guess that didn't work.
ReplyDeletejasmine, you described the show well. she had no problem with just having boy toys around and even if they were dumber than a box of rocks she kept them around because they looked hot. she made no qualms about any of it.
