Jane Fonda Unhinged
2010-01-05
In a new tell-all biography of Warren Beatty by Peter Biskind, it's alleged that the veteran writer, actor, producer and director has bedded 12,775 women, give or take.

Doing the math and assuming one woman per day, 12,775 divided by 365 equals 35 years which means Warren Beatty effectively had sex with a different woman, each and every day, continuously for 35 years. I'm guessing he doesn't remember all their names.

Nevertheless, among the total, loverboy Beatty allegedly had sex with Hollywood stars Julie Christie, Joan Collins and Jane Fonda, according to a review in today's NYPost, with the most interesting being the relationship with Fonda during an audition in 1960.

On the first take, Beatty gave her a brief, chaste kiss. "I thought he was gay," Fonda tells Biskind. Director Joshua Logan was not having it. "Look, are you afraid of Jane or something? Grab her, boy, grab her. Don't be shy." It was a directive that Beatty would apply to his love life forever after. "Oh, my God. We kissed until we had practically eaten each other's heads off," Beatty tells Biskind.

The two went on to become an item, and Beatty would later rave about Fonda's sexual prowess "due to her ability to virtually unhinge her jaw, like a python that swallows prey much larger than itself."

Thanks for that mental image. Now, excuse me while I go pluck my eyes out.
Not me. I've got the image of her with his entire leg down her throat, caressing her bosom with his toes from the inside...
Reminds me of the joke asking why women are so bad at estimating measurements...
Over the years, Jane Fonda has arguably led a public life fairly unhinged from the rest of society and now we learn that she has been unhinged in private also.

#4  Okay - now the bad me is wondering - who was the horse that required unhinging...

#3  due to her ability to virtually unhinge her jaw

This was not my image of "unhinged." I was thinking completely bonkers.

Cheech: "It's a Horror* flick, man!"
Chong: "Is that Jane Fonda?"

#1  What really drove Jane Fonda mad was being married to Roger Vadim, who positively had a gift from driving the women in his life star raving bonkers. He is also responsible for driving Brigette Bardot nuts (knocked her up at age 15.
