“I can remember when anything further downtown New York than Canal Street was risky and the whole area still looked like a 70s cop movie location; when the original loft-owners were more dash-than-cash, artistic types.” StillsI CanWholeRememberStreetsNew YorkTypeAreasOriginalsArtisticOwnersCashCopLocationRemember WhenDowntownCanals Author:Peter York
“I remember when I got the part in Gentlemen Prefer Blondes. Jane Russell - she was the brunette in it and I was the blonde. She got $200,000 for it, and I got my $500 a week, but that to me was, you know, considerable. She, by the way, was quite wonderful to me. The only thing was I couldn't get a dressing room. Finally, I really got to this kind of level and I said, "Look, after all, I am the blonde, and it is Gentlemen Prefer Blondes!" Because still they always kept saying, "Remember, you're not a star." I said, "Well, whatever I am, I am the blonde!” KnowsWayWellsLooksKindSaidStillsRememberStarsLevelsRoomsWonderfulWeekGentlemanDressingsRemember WhenJaneBlondeRemember YouRemembers YouDressing RoomsBrunetteGentlemen Prefer Blondes Author:Marilyn Monroe
