Then she turned and walked out of the place. I saw a tall, dark and extremely handsome guy hurry after her. He followed her out the door and he took her home. His name was Clark Gable. That was the night their romance really began. I've known lots of vain ladies in my time in Hollywood. Norma Shearer is not the only peacock in the pen, of course. It's an occupational affliction and I've got a touch myself. Marlene Dietrich, much as I admire her, was so darned mirror-happy when she first came to Hollywood that it's a wonder she didn't cut herself to pieces every move she made. Marlene had mirrors on the walls, the floor and the ceiling wherever she stayed more than a couple of hours. She just naturally admired the sight of her famous face and figure, and who else didn't? Dolores Del Rio, that unearthly beauty from Mexico, was troubled the same way. Once, I know, Orry-Kelly, who used to dream up creations for Warner Brothers stars, made a white fringed, daringly decollete gown for Dolores. It was a knockout, all right, and revealed much of Dolores' beautiful bronze body topped by her glossy, patentleather coiffure, liquid eyes and heavenly, sensuous mouth. The effect was much too much for Del Rio. When she saw herself in the mirror she gasped and then impulsively ran up to the glass— and kissed her image! But Norma, when she was queen of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, could give Del Rio cards and spades. Once, during the Depression when all the other stars at M-G-M were limited by strict studio decree to three takes on all closeups (to save film and money) Norma shot no less than fifteen reels on one scene alone, the balcony scene in "Romeo and Juliet." And my sharp little eyes caught Norma red handed once in a plain case of preening. That was the night they premiered "Marie Antoinette," Norma's most lavish effort and first stab at movie royalty. There was a big post-premiere party scheduled at the Troc and half of Hollywood as well as an army of fans followed Norma from the theater to the supper spot. At the premiere, Shearer was a vision in a cloth-of-gold evening gown. But when she sat down at the Trocadero blowout she wore black sequins. I never knew where or when she made the quick change — maybe in the ladies' powder room — but anyway when I saw that, I said, "Baby, now you've seen everything in the vanity department." Carole Lombard never forgave Norma. But I'd say it was worth it, considering that Gable took her side and soon took over her heart, too. I was always crazy about Carole. I never knew a franker, more honest, more utterly fascinating gal. And I knew Carole a long time. In fact, I was there the day Carole Lombard was born. star naming . . . Wait a minute — don't get me wrong. I'm no midwife, or even a nurses' aide and I'm really not that old— honest. What I mean is that I happened to be hanging around the day Jane Peters changed her name to Carole Lombard, the name by which the world will always know that swell person who gave her life for her country just as surely as if she'd gone over the top. It was up at Harry Lombard's house. Harry was no relation whatever to Carole. But he and his wife were two of the dearest friends a lot of us had in Los Angeles in those days. The Lombards weren't professionals, but they had a lot of friends in the movie colony and somehow everybody met there for cocktails about every day at a hospitable open house SM AWAY GRAY HAIR ...AND LOOK iO YEARS YOUNGER • Now, at home, you can quickly and easily tint telltale streaks of gray to natural-appearing shades — from lightest blonde to darkest black.
