Callista Gingrich and her roots sign autographs at a campaign stop.
Newt is apparently doing very badly with women voters.
It seems women don’t like it when men dump their sick wives and get a trophy wife 23 years younger and buy her half a million dollars worth of Tiffany’s jewelry. What a surprise.
In what was apparently one of the most despicable and cynical efforts to garner publicity for television shows, the L.A. Sheriff’s Department has announced that there is no evidence that Natalie Wood’s death was anything other than accidental.
For Republican whack job Michelle Bachmann, It’s back to her day job as Satan’s secretary a Minnesota Representative, after the 55-year-old neo-fascist came in 6th in the Iowa caucuses, having received a terrifying 5% of the vote. She can also go back to her husband’s counseling practice (he’s not a licensed psychologist in Minnesota), where they attempt to transform homosexuals into heteros.
Today’s Thursday Face (Friday has been cancelled) (and body) belongs to Sterling Hayden.
An actor who would have preferred to just hang out on boats, he traveled the seas of such far-flung places as Tahiti and Iceland.
Legend has it that someone spotted him in a magazine, and he ended up in Hollywood, making his film debut in 1941 with Fred MacMurray and Madeleine Carroll, whom he would later marry and divorce.
Hayden became a staple of Westerns and Film Noir, with a breakthrough performance in 1950′s “Asphalt Jungle.”
He married actress Betty deNoon and had a bunch of kids.
He worked with Bette Davis in the forgettable “The Star” …
He ratted out colleagues to the HUAC.
I just like this pic of him in his pajamas… that’s Gloria Grahame… you may remember her as Violet Bick in “It’s a Wonderful Life.”
Booze caught up with him. And pot and hash. He was arrested in Canada with hash.
He appeared in “Dr. Strangelove,” “The Godfather,” and kept working, living in Sausalito. He died of cancer in 1986, leaving his third wife and six children.
Here he is in one of my favorites… with Joan Crawford in “Johnny Guitar.” Subtitles are added so you can understand what they’re saying. (?)
Scientolodrones Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes as seen at the opening of his latest film that no one wants to see… and Jack Klugman and Tony Randall as “The Odd Couple.”
One is a mismatched pair put together by Hollywood executives.
