THE EX-MRS. SINATRA AND THE EX-MR. AVA GARDNER FINALLY MEET— WOW! ... PAT NEAL AND GARY COOPER DECIDE TO
Would you like to read an eye-witness account of the first meeting between Nancy Sinatra (the former Mrs. Frank) and Artie Shaw (the former Mr. Ava Gardner) in New York?
My favorite New York spy writes the details.
"New Yorkers hadn't seen Nancy's NEW personality since her divorce from Frank," reports my friend, "and I must say she has become a dazzler, so petite, so chic and so sparkingly pretty."
Well, on this particular night, Nancy came into Gogi's La Rue with her friends from the Coast, the William Perlbergs. They were soon joined by Judy Garland and Sid Luft and then the whole party moved into the small private room, adjoining the main dining room, where Artie Shaw was sitting with his fiancee (?), the Dowling girl, and a columnist.
Apparently, Shaw had never before set eyes on the original Mrs. Sinatra because I overheard him ask the writer, "Who's the little beauty with the big brown eyes?"
He was told it was Nancy Sinatra.
"What!" gasped Ava Gardner's second husband. "You mean he left THIS doll — and three children? He's gotta be crazy!"
My spy comments, "Everything considered, I think this is quite a commentary."
Rita Hayworth's suspension at Columbia lasted just five days. But they were five days of jitters for everyone concerned. Columbia had invested $500,000 in pre-production costs on Affair In Trinidad. And the minute she walked off the picture, Rita's $5000 weekly salary was stopped.
"She is very emotional and mixed up," said one of her friends, "The break-up of her marriage to Aly Khan took its toll of her
self-confidence. Rita is a bundle of nerves and very unsure of herself."
I find that hard to believe. Rita had re' hearsed two dance numbers for the film and they were wonderful. And she looks radiantly beautiful these days.
Could be she is getting a Greta Garbo complex.
Ever since her return to Hollywood she has shunned her old friends even to refusing \ to come to the telephone when they call. On the few occasions when she has accepted a social invitation she has been heard to remark that "people aren't nice to me."
Stuff and nonsense!
To Rita, once my good friend, I say as one who is still her friend: "Think straight and act wisely. Your leave of absence from Hollywood while being a 'Princess' did your career no good. But, don't, for heavens sake, be your OWN worst enemy."
