Steve Allen the first host of the Tonight Show? Or a different one? I was (and am) a big fan of comedian/musician Steve Allen. Interesting fact (to me anyway), but the question “is it bigger than a breadbox” originated with Steve Allen. It was when he was a regular panelist on What’s My Line in the early 1950’s. “You deal in a product, was it bigger than a breadbox?” That is a show I wish they would revive. Panelists ask a contestant Yes/No questions and have to guess their occupation before they get 10 wrong answers. There were usually 2 regular contestants, followed by a celebrity mystery guest. About 15 years ago I couldn’t sleep and was flipping through channels and stopped on the Game Show Network. They were airing an episode that must have been from 1957 because they were talking about the launch of Sputnik that week. I started watching it and before it was over set it to record every night. That show aired in prime time from 1950 until 1967, then I was born.

But I don’t think I’ve ever seen an image of Pola Negri that was attributed to him. But I could be wrong. They were both around at the same time, and Hollywood’s greatest stars of the Golden Age were taken by the most revered photographers in Hollywood, which included Ernest A. Bachrach and Alfred Cheney Johnston. In front of the judge and jury, DeVoe related a series of stories about Bow’s fast and loose ways, many of them exaggerated. True or not, it didn’t matter. The tabloids started running infamously vicious stories about her, with outlandish claims of beastiality and other unsavory acts. After this blow, all her inner torment reached a terrifying climax. After reading The Parade’s Gone By, Bow’s fellow silent film star Louise Brooks personally wrote to Kevin Brownlow and admonished him for giving her a whole chapter while giving Bow zilch. As the sassy broad wrote, “You brush off Clara Bow for some old nothing like Brooks.” Brooks' letter actually had the intended effect. Appropriately chastised, Brownlow included a whole segment on Bow in his next documentary, sparking renewed interest in the lovely, effervescent, and indescribable Clara Bow. As it should be.

15. She Never Stopped Loving Her Mother

Clara Bow could be a devoted lover, only she sometimes showed her devotion in strange ways. When her friend Tui Lorraine faced exile from America and desperately needed a cash injection, Clara generously offered...her own gross father, Robert. Amazingly, Tui and Robert actually went through with it, but not without a handful of drama. Eventually, Bow’s scraping and begging paid off…sort of. She landed a role in 1921’s Beyond the Rainbow. Desperately eager to please, Bow nailed her five scenes and even managed to cry real tears—a feat many actresses today can’t even match. But when she sat down to watch the film, she was utterly devastated. obey rule #3 – out of clothes and into water. Gotta figure Claudette’s scene in Sign of the Cross would have won the prize for best of the year. In actuality, Bow was very sharp, it's just that her acting was more hands-on than cerebral. She needed specific direction and hated rehearsals, but after that she’d take off. One of her more understanding directors, Victor Fleming, compared her to a Stradivarius violin, saying “Touch her, and she responded with genius.” Take that. When Clara was born, New York was in the middle of a ravaging heat wave, with temperatures rising over a punishing 100 degrees. This had devastating consequences. Both Clara and her mother nearly didn’t make it, and Bow later recalled how the two of them “looked death in the face" that day. Sadly, more harrowing moments were in store.

Bow’s family life gave new meaning to the word “dysfunctional.” Her father, though intelligent, was aimless and usually absent. However, he had a reason to dread home. As Clara once admitted, "I do not think my mother ever loved my father.” Even worse, "He knew it.” However, this was far from the worst thing Clara’s mother would do. Although she had a turbulent relationship with her mother (more on that later), Bow never stopped being her biggest defender. After Sarah passed in 1923, Bow screamed at her other family members who had gathered for the funeral, calling them “hypocrites” for never caring about Sarah. If that weren't unhinged enough, Bow then tried to jump into her mother's grave. Soon enough, Bow’s wild lifestyle caught up to her in a big way. The beautiful Bow was pretty indiscriminate about where she lay her head, and her habits always got her into hot water if her bed-mate was actually, uh, married. A woman even once brought Bow to divorce court for stealing her husband. And a bigger scandal was on the horizon… During his career he ended up photographing several hundred actresses and showgirls, a few of who eventually became famous in the movies. Although he was quite well known for his nudes, he had stated,…“I’ve never been interested in making lewd photographs. On the other hand, I’ve always believed that if a woman had a beautiful body, it should be shown. That’s why I’ve always used the simplest of drapes. Effectively, tastefully, of course; but never as an excuse for lewdness nor for covering up a beautiful figure.” Effective Immediately we are no longer allowing the use of the image host "Imagetwist" in the Celebrity sections.

There are plenty other decent hosts that offer a proper "linked image" gallery option so it should not be an issue for any members who wish to share content.Clara was always a charmer with men, but she was also deeply damaged. Half her playmates nursed crushes on the young Bow, and one of her best school friends friends even tried to kiss her. Bow’s response? She said she was “horrified and hurt” by the gesture. Well, can you blame her for having a such a maladjusted view of affection? By joining you will gain full access to thousands of Videos, Pictures & Much More, with absolutely No Ads or Popups. Just as Bow was beginning to be happy with Rex, she started showing disturbing signs. She almost never went out of the house and refused to socialize, but she also hated if her husband left her alone. By 1944, the truth was unavoidable. The starlet was suffering from deep and violent mental issues. That very year, Bow resorted to desperate measures... Bow dealt with her trauma in a tragic way—that is, she didn’t deal with it at all. When she tried to talk about “The Butcher Knife Episode” once in an interview, she cut herself off, saying, “but I can't tell you about it. Only when I remember it, it seems to me I can't live.” No wonder Clara Bow lived like she was running out of time.
