Mr. X Blind Item #6 - Old Hollywood
Which former almost A-list actress had fallen so far down the rung of Hollywood to a B/C-list level that she accepted, in between gigs in Vegas and roles in sexploitation flicks, that for some extra cash she slept with rich businessmen in Europe under the guise of a "nightclub tour"?
How about Virginia Mayo. It seems like she made a sexpoitation movie toward the end of her career? I don't know if she played Vegas, though.
ReplyDeleteVeronica Lake maybe.
ReplyDeleteJayne Manesfield is my guess, she was doing a night club act.
ReplyDeleteLake was a drunk in NYC, she was such a b*tch her own kids wouldn't have anything to do with her.
Actually- I think this is Betty Grable.
ReplyDeleteI remember reading about how she returned to her "showgirl" ways after film success
She did & that was part of a Blind and answers little while back re:her being #1 in her field(pin-up girl) etc.
ReplyDeletelmao! Look at the next reveal@BA!
ReplyDelete+2 --Jayne Mansfield did one of the 1st 'Mainstream' Actresses to do a Nude Scene in the popular movie "Promises,Promises"...led to some of the movie pics being published in Playboy which then resulted in Hugh Hefner getting Obscenity Charges lodged against him in Chicago.
ReplyDelete-She worked at the Tropicana etc in Vegas.
-I didn't realize that she was only 34 yrs.old when she was killed in a car accident.Wow,i thought she was in her 50's-Hollywood's lifestyle & then getting unceremoniously spit out took it's physical toll on her too imo.
Oh Wow !!! how wierd is that AND the Jayne Mansfield Reveal as I'm LITERALLY typing my reasons why i think Jayne's maybe the answer for this Blind!
ReplyDelete-when i come on site late I read all the blinds/reveals/uncategorized from Last One posted to First one posted(doesn't everyone do this) so,it's tough to catch up to current post).Back to Front..

ReplyDeleteJayne. She looked so much older when she died due to alcohol bloat.
