I need your help, guys. Do any of you remember a real photo of two gay men that circulated 10-15 years ago that mimicked the 1957 shot of Sophia Loren and Jayne Mansfield, famously taken at a dinner in Beverly Hills at Romanoff's to welcome the Italian star to Hollywood? The "Jayne" in it, as I recall, is wearing a light blue dress shirt and has sandy/auburn hair. I can't even remember what I wanted it for, but I'm so OCD that I won't be able to sleep unless someone sends it to me. Until then, here's an AI-generated attempt. While I'm not a fan of artificial intelligence, I wouldn't kick the blond out of bed for not being human!

Song of the Day: 'This Is My Song' by Petula Clark
Not surprising that one of the highlights of seeing a woman who has been in show business for eight decades is the stories she shares.
In addition to a fabulous anecdote about working with Fred Astaire on "Finian's Rainbow" — with some bizarre guy they'd never heard of (Frances Ford Coppola) who brought his hippie friend (George Lucas) to the set — her rather animated anecdote about how happy Charlie Chaplin was that the song he'd written for her for the soundtrack of his movie "A Countess From Hong Kong" had been such an international sensation, recorded in numerous languages. "He didn't cast me in the film, however," she explained, adjusting her bosom. "For some reason he chose Sophia Loren." Petula then mock-gloated that unlike the song, the film had not been much of a success!

Stan Wawrinka Takes Manhattan!
With Patrick Dempsey, Sophia Loren, Rod Laver and a U.S. Open trophy by his side, suffice to say Stan Wawrinka's week started better than any of ours!
And speaking of Sophia -- learn what she's was doing on Staten Island(!) HERE.
