Who am I?

[Jolly]

Hollywood trivia...

As a girl of 15, I moved in with a gangster. I eventually moved out because he was abusive. Supporting myself by nude modeling and occasional prostitution, I eventually attended acting school with Bette Davis. I then managed to get a job in the Ziegfeld Follies, but I was fired after a couple if weeks. They told me it was because I had no tits and I couldn't dance.

Trying to catch on in show biz, I was not doing too well until I took the advice of a Hollywood star's mother, who gave me the same advice she gave her daughter...Use the casting couch to get what I wanted. As Joan Crawford once said, "Better the casting couch, than a cold, hard floor". Joan was right.

I made over fifty movies and dated A List stars like Jimmy Stewart and Henry Fonda. I eventually became one of the richest people in Hollywood.

Nah, but it's much more frustrating to not use it.
