Whatever Pays the Bills

Jerry Lewis (1926 - 2017)

Do you remember those legendary Hollywood actresses, Karen Sharpe and Hope Holiday? Me either. Well, the two of them are still alive and have come forward to tell their sob stories in a new short documentary and expose published by Vanity Fair, that tawdry gossip sheet all dressed up in glossy paper to look like a respectable magazine. 

The last time I even thought about Vanity Fair was back when it splashed Beto O'Rourke on its cover, with a headline gushing that the Texan roller-blader/aspiring-politician was "made for the job" of President. Now they've dug up these two ladies who are spilling their guts about how Jerry Lewis, that one-of-a-kind comic genius who died in 2017, sexually harrassed both of them -- one in 1961 and the other in 1964. I guess both women have been suffering from lockjaw for the past 50 years and just now are able to talk again. Help me in wishing them both all the best on the road back to health.

At the time of his death, the very same Vanity Fair published an obituary calling Lewis, "A Comedic Force of Nature." Go figure.
