My late husband was a classmate and was good friends with Raquel's sister. I met her many years later, she was gracious, a bit aloof... But when I mentioned that my Uncle remembered seeing her when she toured Vietnam! She LIT UP!! She had me give her assistant my uncle's mailing address! She sent him a photo and a personal note. Very sweet!

Monroe's an Icon on Tshirts etc more so than RW, but then so's Charlie Manson, for that matter, which isn't what I was talking about. Not saying MM's negative, but obviously an Icon can be either. I was just talking hot chicks as opposed to their public image over the years. No question because of her association with the Ratpack, JFK, Bobby etc who passed her around like a Joint is more the "Icon". A 30yr old RW's just about as hot as they come in the conversation I'm having, which is the only one I'm concerned with practically speaking.

It was customary for powerful men in the movie industry to coerce young women to trade sex for a career in Hollywood. I wonder how Raquel Welch handled the inevitable sexual harassment.

I've watched Joan Collins (the British Open) and Jane Fonda (Hollywood Royalty) REMANUFACTURE their "reality" to adjust to the cancel culture and 2020 media. Made me almost throw up.

The place is full of "users" a notch above outright street pimps and con men. Looking at some of the films she did (100 Rifles) that were not MAJOR mainstream promotions but considered pretty good films today, she probably had to be aggressive to get the call.
