JEAN HARLOW
-The Platinum Blonde-
(1911-1937)

Underwear makes me uncomfortable and
besides I have to breathe





'One day when he was eating a cookie he offered me a bite.
Don't underestimate that. The poor guy's so frightened of germs,
it could darn near have been a proposal.'

Harlow on Howard Hughes






celebutopia.

I've watched a lot of Jean's films lately: "Public Enemy", "Red-Headed Woman", "Dinner at Eight", "Libeled Lady", and I'll be watching "Hell's Angels" tonight. I'm really starting to warm up to her. She's brilliant in "Red-Headed Woman"!

She was beautiful - but my God, those eyebrows!

the first 3 pics are from "the jean harlow story" by john pascal,the worst bio ever written and fortunately out of print for more or less 4 decades.at least it contains some pics that haven´t been posted before.(btw the caption under the first pic says:"miss harlow at her sultriest.")the third pic shows her with her husband paul bern,still happy....
the other 3 are from eve golden´s "platinum girl"
the last pic is form the last studio sitting jean ever made.

so these are the last pics for a while.otherwise this is going to turn into a platinum orgy (well it has already i guess)

first pic,the cover of "bombshell" a jean bio by david stenn.it´s definitely my favourite,very well researched,it´s rather barren regarding pictures though.
