    I enjoyed this vlog, Jordan. I'm old enough that I remember the Hollywood days of Hedda and Louella, but it's good to see that you're keeping them alive for the young people of today. Hollywood was a crazy place back then, too, it seemed. I also want to say that I enjoy the walks you take us on, just in case someone complains, I REALLY like seeing your days, and going to the Dollar stores and post office and just taking a walk down a Hollywood street, that I'll never be able to do myself. You are sooooo appreciated by people like me. Thank you.

      I agree with you Dolly Wilson. I'll never get to some of the places that Jordon goes, I get see these places through his eyes. I learn some things I didn't know along the way. Keep up the good work Jordon. I love your vlogs and seeing Jah.

    Hedda's office was on the floor above my family doctor when I was in high school in the early sixties. I saw her once in the elevator and once driving past the Ivar theatre in her Rolls Royce.

    I had an uncle who was a hat designer who made a hat for Louella Parsons and was mentioned in her column. I remember Hedda Hopper in the 1960s when he appeared on an afternoon variety show to give her scoops with those dumb hats. She was in the movie SUNSET BOULEVARD in 1951 as herself.

    Looks like Hedda’s office was on the 7th floor of the Guaranty Building. There is a letter on ebay that’s on her stationery. She had offices 701-704.

    I think I know Hedda from her being a guest on an episode of I Love Lucy. I am also a huge Perry Mason fan so I knew about her son, William. I didn't know that she had a mean streek and hurt a lot of careers with her pen. Thank you for showing us the building where she worked. That huge drill was pretty cool, good catch on that one, Jordan! Thanks again for an other great vlog! 🌼

    I read a book about Hedda Hopper and that's what got me interested in Hearst Castle. She talks about being selected to receive an invitation to go there and how she enjoyed herself. When I took my tour of the castle I was thinking of Hedda staying in one of the villas outside. I know she had a short film career as an actress but I can spot her a mile away. She has very distinct features with sort of puppy dog eyes. Saw her not long ago in The Women (1939).

    AWESOME WORK! Being in LA all my life, the only Hollywood I know is the one I see today. However, your vlogs such as this one really brings color and life to what used to be. I can now go to these places and appreciate the buildings and locations to their fullest! I used to drive by that building everyday, I had no idea it was Hedda's former office!

  • @krismccarthy4938
    @krismccarthy4938 6 років тому +8

    Hedda was in one of my favorite movies of all time, “The Women.” You hit it out of the park again. Hope you are finding your way out of your rut that you mentioned the other day.

  • @esthergarcia1373

    The old architectural buildings are such a work of art from the ornate mailbox to the package drop, building directory and mural. Hedda Hopper was quite a character. Lucille Ball interviewed her once in a radio show she used to do interviews of stars in sponsored by Turner Classics with Ben M. It’s called “Let’s Talk to Lucy” on UA-cam. Great job Jordan. I also never get tired of seeing your daily errands and time with Jah in your vlogs. ❤️🙏🏻🌴🐕‍🦺 ⭐️Precious ⭐️

    When Hedda died, many stars felt a sigh of relief. She was a mean, despicable woman.

    Appreciate this video of the past. I grew up in Los Angeles and it is sad that so much of the past has been obliterated. Especially miss the trolley system that rolled over the entire Los Angeles county. Glad to see that the Los Angeles Union Station built in 1939 is still intact. They should make a movie about Hedda Hopper's life as she certainly led a colorful and interesting life.

    Have you read the Linda Goodman books "Starsigns" and "Lovesigns"? The author included a lot of info in relation to Hollywood stars and LA residents of sixties and seventies. Like David Niven's books "Bring on the Empty Horses" and "The Moon's a Balloon" they provide lots of interesting titbits.

    Jordan, I had a problem with my fuel filter when I owned a Toyota truck. Water collected inside the filter which made the truck conk-out. Small filter with a clamp connection on each end. Easy to fix without mechanic fee. Good luck.
