- Ah, the allure of Old Hollywood, where stars wore an innocent veneer like a glamorous mask. But as we peel back the layers, you'll discover that even in Tinseltown's golden era, nothing was ever truly 100% innocent.

Re: Joan Crawford’s stepfather-An adult male isn’t “involved” with an 11 year old girl. If there is a sexual relationship, the adult is abusing, molesting, and interfering with the child. Saying he was “involved” implies that she had some agency in the relationship. She was 11. Don’t let abusers off the hook by softening language.
Lol, I peeped that as well. That was pretty gross 🤢.
CO-SIGNED
Exactly! 💯 It's so disgusting that plenty of those men impregnated, married, and ruined them. No one spoke up. I feel like if men had their true way they'd make it a law stating they can openly be with minors. Hollywood has hid sick in moral thing's. It needs to be dismantled. 🤢 The thing's they've always done to women are despicable to say the least.
Crawford was not good-looking mainly in later life. ......
Well said!
Marilyn was not the original Blonde Bombshell. Jean Harlow was!
🤔 Maybe so ,but it's Marilyn Monroe that most people still remember today !!....
That is what I thought and Jean's hair color was a mistake that took off.
yes! We need a Proof- Reader& FACT CHECKER Here!!
I'd give them both credit for being blonde bombshells.
Each in their own eras.
@auapple I agree, Marilyn was a hot mess, so mixed up.
Marilyn Monroe was the original, blonde bombshell? So Jean Harlow and Mae West never existed? They were stars when Marilyn was too young for kindergarten.
I hardly think it matters. It's just entertainment.
Maybe it's because that Marilyn Monroe is more familiar to today's audiences. It's a shame that Jean Harlow and Mae West are forgotten!
Who cares. Marilyn is still talked about. Pictures, calendars, etc... in stores now.
Non of them were original's, they were all a product of time, changed to deliever the wanted part's in the movies. Very few of them were natural beauties, Ingrid Bergman, Greta Garbo, Ave Gardner, Grace Kelly and Deborah kerr, and few more like them, but without make-up and perfect teeth, facelift and dangerous diet's these bombshell stars would be half of their appearance, but the world has always bin cheated and lied to.....
@@LoyalAsst I am so tired of looking at Marylin everywhere, she has bin dead for over 60 year's, it has become boring to watch her again and again, she was not even the greatest beauty in Hollywood, her legacy is scandal's.....not appearance,,,,,
Joan Crawford was involved with her step-father at 11? Why phrase abuse like they had a affair? Weird. Exiting video
Loretta Young was not Clark Gable's co-star in Gone with the Wind. She only auditioned for the role of Scarlett O'Hara.
Thank you for pointing that out. I'm not sure many caught that
It never said she was.
Their affair happened during the filming of Call of the Wild. She had the resultant baby, pretended it was an adopted daughter, and hid the fact behind the love child. The daughter still lives and looks like both of them.
@@markbaughman4727no sorry she died a few years ago
Inaccurate in far too many ways. This should be taken down.
Marion Davies was the mistress not wife of William Randolph Hearst
You’d think in such a widely known group of affairs, it would be easy to check the facts of all instances (especially those where VERY popular actors were concerned). Shame on your obvious lack of thoroughness and accuracy.
Yes and Rudolph Valentino adored her, she was present the nigth he took ill, and she got him to the poly clinic where he died shortly after a failed operation.She was a Sigfield Follies girl....
And how do you know this???😮
@@raquelgarvin8391 There have been movies and documentaries telling of their affair. Their affair was an open secret in Hollywood
My grandfather worked at MGM during "The Golden Age". Had encounters with old Louie B. Had nothing good to say about him, that he was a real piece of work. Grandpa told me some sad stories about some of those actors and more so the actresses.
You must be ancient if your grandfather worked at MGM prior to 1924. Also, I'm sure Louis
B. would have nothing good to say about your grandfather, if he even had any idea who he was.
Actually, I'm not that old. Who said anything about "prior to 1924"? He worked for the studio well after old L.B. packed it in back in 1957. But thank you for your display of intelligence, LOL!!!!!@@dagny8336
@@dagny8336 Yes exactly, but let's not let the truth get in the way of a good story 🤥 !!....
@@dagny8336 why would you say something like that to the person who posted this. One doesn't have to be "ancient" for this to be plausible. Not everyone has children in their teens and twenties. My grandparents were born in the late 1800s, when they were 45 and 50 with most of the kids out of the house, they ended up with woops babies. My dad was one of those twins and he and my uncle were born in 1928. I'm only 63, maybe you consider that ancient. What this person has said is neither impossible nor improbable. As for Mr. Mayer, he had a horrible reputation for being arrogant, condescending, a proclivity for actresses, particularly the underage ones. Because of his power he got away with some very horrible things that wouldn't fly today, as shown by the incarceration of Harvey Weinstein.
Stupid comment@@dagny8336
" I blame nobody for my fall." " I think I've won the right to control myself". If that quote which Francis Farmer was supposed to have made at the end of this video is really attributed to her, then it is the most profound words of self accountability that I've ever heard. She gets my deepest respect.
That women went thru hell !! RIP
Maureen O’Hara is not “best remembered” for _Miracle on 34th Street_ ; she made many other memorable movies, including _The Quiet Man_ with John Wayne.
I was snoozing my way through and awakened to glaring errors that make me doubt... Jerry Lee Lewis was 22, not a 22 year gap, followed by Clark Gable / Loretta Young liason after filming Call of the Wild, not Gone with the Wind... All needs review to determine accuracy of any story.
I hate that. As a teacher I have to have everything 100% correct.
.. and Marion Davies was Hearst's mistress, not his wife, as the wife wouldn't agree to a divorce.
I do scratch my head. The Western world was all upset when Jerry Lee married his cousin. Yet, even today there are very few laws in the US protecting children from child marriages.
It's definetly a gossip video which is why they gave it the title of RUMORS, but there's still a lot of truth in several stories they mentioned.@@lisafoos8976
@@lisafoos8976 Actually it's also believing what the New York Times is saying now. You can't believe any media anymore.
I guess Vintage TV never lets a fact stand in the way of a good story.
Vintage? That's the very idea on which Murdoch's Fox Network was created
Sorry..but the original blonde bombshell was Jean Harlow who died at only 26.. She was one of first stars developed by Howard Hughes
I agree with previous comments that this video needed fact checking. My offering: Marian Davies was William R. Hearst's mistress, not his wife.
And it spelled Marion.
Jean Harlow was the Original Blonde Bombshell. Jerry Lee Lewis was 22 when he married his cousin, only 9 years older. Loretta Young was not in Gone With The Wind. Gable and Young were filming up in Alaska. I guess I won't finish this.
Call of the Wild right?
it's no wonder there's bad info floating aorund the internet - Jerry Lee married his 13 year old first-cousin once-removed - - Gable and Young filmed Call of the Wild in Washington State (Mt Baker Nat'l Forest) - tho the story's setting was mostly Yukon Territory in Canada during the Gold Rush
Only 9 ? It was STILL WRONG
@@cadillacdeville5828 RIGHT??? 🤢
I think his cousin was 13 when they married.
You know, nothing much changes. In a lot of states there isn't a minimum age for marriage if the parents consent.
I've read of girls as young as 11 being married off, legally. Some representative from Arkansas (of course Arkansas) said, "I've know people as young as 12 that have gotten married and still are." He clearly didn't understand it.
Judy Garland was 13 when she signed her MGM contract… not 14
Marion Davies was Hearst’s mistress, not his wife
Loretta Young’s fling with Gable was when they were making ”Call of the Wild” together in 1935… she was not even in GWTW
The simplest of details in this video are horrendously inaccurate
And she was Sixteen when she was in The Wizard Of Oz. And that " "Wonderful Louis Mayer" was the one that had the doctor put her on pills. And whoever said Judy was ugly should have had their eyes examined. She was one of the most beautiful actresses in Hollywood. And her youngest daughter Lorna said her mother had beautiful skin. She would come into her room and watch her put on her makeup. Judy loved it.
Yes, a fact check is required. This piece could be subtitled Fantasy Fiction and Scurrilous Scandals.
Sounds like Louie Mayer was the original Harvey Weinstein. Sad what he did to Judy Garland 😢
But without Louis B. Mayer, the great Secretariat would never have existed. Mayer bred and owned Secretariat's damsire (mother's father), Princequillo, who passed on the large heart X factor gene through Big Red's dam, Somethingroyal. He also arranged for PQ and his dam to be transported by ship from Ireland to America at the height of World War II. Princequillo"s sire, RosePrince (or was it PrinceRose?) was killed by German artillery fire when his stud farm in France found itself caught in the crossfire between Allied and Axis forces. Mayer moved his horses first to Ireland, to protect them, then to America, but they were caught in a Nazi blockade. When they finally arrived, poor little PQ was looking very unlike the future legend he would become. Mayer sold him, his new owner raced him successfully then sent him to stud, and the rest is history!
What the hell does his horse have to do w anything ?@Postinaway
So that excuses his rape of children does it?? Horses before children!!! ?@@Postinaway
He was a Pedo too.
Shirley Temple stated that he exposed himself to her when she was 8 or 9. He was chasing her in his locked office but couldn't catch her and finally gave up and let her go.
"Hearst's wife Marion Davies". ok. After that I don't believe a single word.
👎🏽Wrong dates, wrong movie, wrong person, wrong photo throughout.😡
And same stories twice.
Loretta Young herself later admitted that Judy was not adopted but was the child conceived from a union with Clake Gable. Little Judy had Clark's protruding ears and her mom Loretta's high cheekbones.
according to Judy - Loretta would never admit it publicly - she only reluctantly admitted it Judy - - it would be after Judy died - that the rape version was revealed by a close friend of Loretta - - consequently - it's all unproven - and people can take whatever side that they want - - i believe both the kinship (just set photos of both side by side) - and the rape
@johneyon5257
Loretta wrote a book about her life in her later years but told the writer not to publish it until AFTER her death.
She reportedly admitted to an affair with the married Gable and stated that he NEVER raped her.
She waited OVER 60 years and never made an apology to Gable, his family or the public.
The book is called "Forever Young" it was published in 2000.
So, Hollywood parties haven't changed?
🤫 Of course not, why would they ?. Because people especially actors have not changed !!..
Natalie was so beautiful
When she was 15 - 16 Kirk Douglas offered her a role and asked her to come read at a hotel.
He reportedly Brutalized her for hours, then threatened her career.
She finally told her sister before she died.
Joan Crawford was so often made up in a way that made her look hard, or fierce, but if you look at the few times her makeup was more restrained or subtle, she was stunningly beautiful. She was also very well built and a talented dancer.
Clara Bow 's voice was certainly not typical for the characters she played especially since she suffered sometimes from a stutter and had a Brooklyn accent that littered her speech. The talkie's killed her movie career.
there are youtube videos of her talking - she spoke a very understandable standard american - with a touch of NY
Her speaking voice was just fine. Clara had anxiety about the microphone & talkies in general.
@@johneyon5257 Like I said, Brooklyn is a touch of New York
@@DBEdwards - nothing i said contradicted that
Just imagine how many women were taken advantage of until recently when women finally got to have their experiences come to light We will never know the whole truth since most of the women have passed and died with nothing to show for!!!!To the women and man put their careers on the line THANK YOU!
Men were taken advantage of too. Mostly if they were gay. You can't forget about them.
I remember that when his fourth wife Oona O'Neal married Chaplin, her father disowned her!
You are right, these rumours are nasty
Soooo many errors…in this video…
Jean Harlow was literally Marylins inspiration and idol
Yes and she was not "one of the original blonde bombshell", she was the original one.
Whatever Happened To Baby Jane one of the greatest movies of all time!!!!!
Scared the shit out of me!
@@mottawa1Me too!!!!!😮
Your stories and information are always intriguing to me. The "golden age of Hollywood" was an interesting time for sure.
seems from comments they are also inaccurate.
Hearst and Marion Davies were NEVER married. If you’re going to tell RUMORS OF HOLLYWOOD, GET YOUR STORIES STRAIGHT!!!
Wow. It's like you knew them. Has it ruined your life?
Why don't you make a video correcting this video? I hope you can overcome your outrage on their behalf, soon.
A rumor that the niece she left her money to, was her's and Randolph's love child.
Tippi Hedren was a Beauty, wow! That’s a shame what that pervert did to her!
Hitchcock was obsessed with blondes, starting with Grace Kelly. He also hit on Eva Marie Saint. If he tried to ruin Tippi's career, he failed. When Grace couldn't do "Marnie" (not exactly the best movie role for a new princess), he brought Tippi in. Tippi did films after Hitchcock before dedicating her life to her big cat rescue, Shambala.
I read somewhere that upon Louis B. Mayer's death, his funeral was the biggest that Hollywood had ever seen. It is said that a reporter remarked to his colleague Samuel Goldwyn that Mayer must have been well-loved. Goldwyn allegedly responded " Hell no, they all just want to make sure the son-of-a-bitch is dead." I think that adequately sums it up.
Of course it would be
Guy was a real scumbag...funny story though
I have seen a few of Jeanette McDonald's films. They are OK. I never knew she and Nelson were a couple until I read about it last year. Very sad story.
Call of the Wild not Gone with the Wind.
Charles Loughton was the WORST 😲🤢
Truly
This crap is such an exquisite substitute for the National Enquirer.
🤔🤫 Yes , and I bet you enjoyed every single bit of old gossip featured here !!...
Yeah. It's in colour and talks
Probably worse!
agreed - this video has all the reliability of the shoddiest tabloid
Joan Crawford wasn't really good-looking. Her eyes creep me out.
Let the past be past. We have too much now to be concerned about.
Lol
There were sure a lot of shady goings on in the Golden Age of Hollywood. I bet there are still many scandals now that we don't hear about. Thank you for sharing this. God Bless You & stay safe.
You def do hear about them. Nothing changes in hollyweird
AI narration will never garner a ‘Subscribe’ push from me!
Do you know what the word 'mediocre' means? I don't think so 😂
When Marilyn Monroe was singing Happy Birthday, I knew even at a young age that she was jacked up with something.
Joan Crawford needs her own video all to herself!😳
Theres a movie…
So many inaccuracies.
ROLLING STONE magazine headline: Jim Morrison: He’s Hot, He’s Sexy and He’s Dead
So many sloppy mistakes…tsk tsk
2 things that I just off hand know wasn’t correct Loretta Young did not get pregnant while Gable was filming Gone with the Wind. It occurred when they were making a different movie together.
Marion Davies was not WR Hearst’s wife, she was his long term girlfriend. His wife lived in New York.
Why was there a photo of Luise Rainer holding an Oscar when the subject of that particular section of the video was supposed to be Alice Brady? Why do these Vintage TV videos feature so many untruths and fabrications? Loretta Young in Gone With the Wind? BAH! Give us all a break and stop spreading these stupid lies.
To answer your question 🙋 simple, the channel owners do this to make sure you are watching their videos. And are concentrating on the subject matter !!.....
@@alancrisp1582 That isn't an excuse, some who watch will truly think dose false facts are true. 🙄 🙄
the photos thru out were not synced with the narration - it was very confusing
I always knew the golden age of Hollywood had they're secrets but I didn't know it was this grimy😏 really enjoyed this video 😊 thx for sharing.... smiles
This is actually the PG version.
@@TheNester. I'm intrigued now I want the x-rated version 😅
I was just going to say, this error ridden account doesn't even begin to touch the stories of "Old Hollywood". The movie industry wouldn't have survived the 30's if social media had been around back then. So many things were hushed up and made to go away until it was time to blackmail someone for whatever purpose it was needed
@@samspurgeon4222 totally agree with you on that... if only we had the technology we have today back then there would be a lot of unanswered questions we today we luv to know about like who really killed JFK..what happened to Jimmy Hoffa..was Hitler really mad as a hatter.. who really won the Vietnam war.. did Marilyn Monroe really allegedly kill herself etc... I could ask a million questions just on that time period alone lol but you get the jist☺️
@@sharrielee911 indeed...not only knowing what happened, but perhaps finding ways to better solutions to current problems that were born from past mistakes.... hopefully until that day happens, we, as human beings, can try putting our differences aside and talking WITH each other instead of yelling AT each other.
I think as far apart as we all seem to be, if we all stopped and were honest with ourselves, we aren't as different as we're told we are. If everyone then put their emphasis on our common ground instead of perceived differences, who knows what might be accomplished. Sounds so simple, but then again....
Late night ramblings of a tired old man I suppose lol. My best to you and yours👍🙂
Poor Joan Crawford. She was obviously abused by her stepfather. So sad.
Joan Crawford slept her way to the top and was mean as a snake. She can't blame her behavior on what her stepfather did to her, as horrible as it was. Most girls and boys that have been abused in that way don't continue to abuse anyone else. She was willing to do whatever she needed to do to get to the top and make sure that she would never be poor again. Everybody knew that about her.
I think what mean for Joan Crawford is that she was abused by her stepfather- not involved with him at age 11. This is what is called a crime.
@Narrator/channel owner, do you check these videos for ACCURACY before showing them?
Re Natalie Wood; using the line ' mother taught her not to rock the boat' is cruely used considering her cause of death. More consideration needed here.
SO IT WAS TRUE , ABOUT HOW THEY FELT AFTER HAVING SO MANY , " ABORTIONS BY CHOICE/A HOLLYHOOD FORCED ABORTION " , UUUMMM HUM🤔🤔🤯🤯
Props to Francis Farmer and Tippi Hedren for bucking the Hollywood trash.
Alfred Hitchcock movies were the best! But the man himself was not.
When you start the segment on Alice Brady, you show a photo of Louise Rainer. ???
That Charles Laughton gossip is stomach churning.🤢
His rape of children and later murder which he got away with proves nothing changes in hollyweird
Son of the Shake? How about Sheik.
Omg🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣the level of education on this thread
Wrong wrong so much you have wrong.
Hollywood is rotten to the core.
Military...Hollywood..Religion..Politics....in structures with power, theres **always** some weird shit going on...always
Clark Gable daughter was image off him 😮how wrong cruel of Clark to not know her support her as her father 😢💔😤
Thanks for sharing 😊
Missy was Barbara Stanwyck's nickname.
Jean Harlow couldn’t have had a clause in her contract not to marry, as the studio made her marry her third husband.
Didn't address the rumor of Natilee Wood being raped by Kurt Douglas.
I was in a club of old retired men in California and once a month we had lunch and a guess speaker. One of those speakers was a retired deputy corner from L.A.
He had done autopsies on several stars including Wood. The only thing he would really say was, "She was very drunk when she died."
O'Hara starred with John Wayne in The Quiet Man. At the very end of the movie she says something to John Wayne and he gets a shocked look on his face. The director, John Ford told her what he wanted her to say and she didn't want to say it.
Ford promised not to record it or tell anyone but he wanted a shocked look on Wayne's face.
In the end she whispered it in Wayne's ear and it worked. Neither Ford, Wayne, or O'Hara ever told anyone what she said.
Just for your accuracy it was Not "Kurt Douglas"... but Kirk Douglas, although this inaccuracy is perfectly Apt for the absolute lack of accurate detail rife throughout this piece of work
Respectfully offered
I can't believe they didn't mention that either. Natalie Wood got a raw deal, to say the least.
@@jmh2105 You're really trying to justify what happened to her by someone accidentally misspelling the name?! Everyone knows who he was, regardless of how his name was misspelled and he raped Natalie Wood. That's the whole point of the comment where someone misspelled a name. Grow up.
You know, there’s strong evidence of Kirk Douglas being involved in the murder of The Black Dahlia (Elizabeth Smart), or the related murder of another aspiring actress around the same time.
@@Ira88881 No, I never heard that.
Viewing your video feels like embarking on an evocative time-travel adventure, enabling us to revisit the opulence of Hollywood's past and celebrate the remarkable achievements of these actors in today's context. *DO YOU AGREE WITH ME*
Yes, but many of the facts are incorrect!
I always liked Frances Farmer...another actress with a tragic time on this earth!!!
Geesh, I learned more from the comments than from the video itself!
Thanks for sharing your thoughts 🙂
13:22 Oh goodness Charlie loved to eat 💩 sandwiches!!🤯😳
The only real tragic story on this is Frances Farmer. She was a true victim. I know all about the other stories of the others on this list. I've heard and read many biographies about all of these people. Frances Farmer was a victim of the establishment. I give credit to Debbie Reynolds though because she stood by him throughout everything.
What a great movie With Jessica Lange playing Frances Farmer!
@@angelinagulizio5830 Love it. One of her best role for sure. BTW, yu have Farmer's first name right. Not Francis, but Frances.
Debbie Reynolds stood by him... who is him?
I Think It Was, Vivien Leigh!!!!!!!!!!!!
Natalie Wood was not part of the golden age of Hollywood. Need to research and edit your product.
She was a child start in a number of early films during that time, 1946 being her first film. That's still kinda of stretching the idea.
Maybe I missed it, but who gets mandatory bed rest for a C-section? I had my child in 2011 via C-section. Within 24 hours of it, I was gotten up and walking. Everyone else I know who have had them were not give bed rest. I had extensive cancer surgery in 2020 and within two days they were getting me up. So I guess I am just confused on why a C-section would require bed rest. No, I couldn't go up and down stairs for the first several weeks, but that was due to not wanting that incision to open. Maybe I missed the part on why bed rest was required. 🤔
As far as the care of the child and such, yes, most times it will still fall to the mother to do things. The only reason why I couldn't after my cancer surgery was because I had lot of healing in my left arm from where that took a bone and tissue graft in an attempt to reconstruct the right side of my jaw and when I went through chemo and radiation, I got really sick so could barely get up each day let alone do housework. However, I did what I could. And after I felt better once treatments were done, I did a little more every day. Take things slow and do what you can.
For God's sake check your facts mistakes in every video you post.
Loretta Young did not get pregnant during the filming of Gone with the Wind, it was during Call of the wild Wild with Clark Gable that It happened
Ever see their kid? The ears are the size of Dumbo's.... hahaha!
Hey y'all 😮
0.28;were we supposed to understand that gobbledegook?!?
Not Marilyn at 2:19. Impersonater???
Loretta Young was assaulted by Clark Game. It wasn't during Gone with the Wind either.
It's alot going on ...
Davies wasn't Hearst's wife.
The grand Hotel was her first role in a movie shes was really young.
Forgot About, Mae West!!!!!!!!!!
So many of these are not rumors.
15:57 Maureen Ohara there were look a like actresses in that time
Hitchcock was west USA’s Winston Churchill
Why show a picture from Boogie nights during Linda Lovelace piece. Yes I know that movie is about the porn industry. But it (picture) could also give the wrong impression.
On the plus side, nice that in final piece on Rock Hudson, you didn't show him as he was when riddled with aids.
I get so tired of hearing the rumour about Joan doing porn. There is ZERO proof or reliable information about her actually appearing in such a film. Mayer had the blackmailer provide a copy of the so called porn which he determined was NOT Joan.
Re chaplin he had pediophille behaviour he was in relationships with much younger children than stated here. Was not the fame that went to his head but his personality
Marion Davis was never married to Randolph William Hurst. He was married to another who would not give him a divorce and he had 2 sons with her. Davis was Hurst mistress for over thirty years. Get the facts right or don’t tell the tale.
Joan never liked to talk much at all about her past.
How do you know
@@VintageTVShows Christina mentioned that in an interview. Because it was not a great childhood and she tried to suppress talking about it but the abuse she got from her Mother Anna and the Headmastress at Rockingham Academy named Mrs Stuttle was so vicious that she beat Lucille with her cane and kicked her in the head. You don't forget abuse . You can try to suppress it but it won't work.
@Rest65432, You Are SPOT ON About Joan! About Ms. Marilyn Monroe, She Didn't Commit Suicide, The Morning After She Was Found Dead Inside Her Own Home, She Was Going To Do A Little Speech, Spilling The Beans All About JFK's Cuba/Russia Mission, But The Kennedy's Plans 0:02 Had To Be Super Secret, Therefore JFK & RFK Smothered Her With Her Own Pillows , The Night Before!!!!!!!

Funny how so called scandals only mainly focused on woman
22 yr age gap? How is 22 Jerry to 13 yr cousin 22 years? This whole doc is full of holes and outright lies.
I don’t know why we watch these mini bios. Much of this info is not true!!!
Ffs 6 yr difference is hardly scandalous re Chaplin
He was for worse than is stated here def had relationships with children.
He was worse than stated here he def had relationships with children.
