Mamie Van Doren

I see her referred to here, espenially in Madonna threads.

What do you want me to know about her?

espenially- especially

She wasn’t in the legitimate theater.

She claimed to be devirginized by Rock Hudson. She’s clearly not a reliable informant.

The pinnacle of her career was “Sex Kittens Go to College”.

She looks so much younger than Madonna.

In her delicious autobiography she said Rock Hudson got Rock Hard for her when they were rolling around on her moms kitchen floor.

Not much to know, she wasn't even a B-movie actress. Most people only talk about her because they are surprised she's still alive.

Mamie with Doris Day at the premiere of their film "Teacher's Pet."

[quote] she wasn't even a B-movie actress.

Nonsense, she’s in fact arguably the queen B. She was in “The Navy vs. the Night Monsters” … AND … “Voyage to the Planet of Prehistoric Women.”

She was a Rockefeller Republican in the 60s and 70s but as she’s watched the party drive into the Grand Canyon she’s jumped ship and is a fierce and (as a matter of fact) eloquently outspoken liberal.

Is Mamie the one who used to try to crash the Oscars ceremony every year & they’d never let her in? Whoever it was would be interviewed on the red carpet (I’m talking late ‘80s-early ‘90s). I know it was a blond former actress.

Sally Kirkland, R8?

Jacklyn Smith? (Just kidding.)

R9, I think you're referring to Sally Kirkland.

Not to be confused with Sally Kellerman although she often is.

R9, you're probably thinking of Edy Williams.

^^thank you! I’ve been searching for this name forever it seems, I always thought it was Mamie.

90 years old, wears stripper heels and rides her bike or walks her dog every day. She looks amazing for her age.

Mamie and Madonna have similar fashion sense.

I was a huge Mamie fan (read her book and watched several of her movies). I messaged her on FB to make sure the address on her website was correct for mailing a pic to get autographed. She (or whomever ran her FB confirmed it was), and I sent the pic along with a prepaid Priority Mail envelope to return it to me. Seven years later, and I've never gotten it. Of course, it could've gotten lost in the mail going either way, but it left a bad taste in my mouth.
