Story Behind Infamous Sophia Loren and Jayne Mansfield Photo
Everything started so decently…
The infamous photo of Sophia Loren and Jayne Mansfield was called the sheer manifestation of women’s envy. The Italian movie star cast a strange look at the deep cleavage of fellow American actress. Everything was not how it seemed.
Almost all the Hollywood representatives of the 1950s attended the sensational party. Jayne showed up late but made a grand entrance in a tight-fitting pink satin dress, highlighting her female curves.
She immediately hurried to Sophia Loren and took a seat next to her at the table. Mansfield had unintentionally stolen the spotlight from the Italian bombshell. The latter fessed up her thoughts at that moment in a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly.
“She came right to my table. She knew everyone was watching. She sat down. And now, she was barely . . . Listen. Look at the picture. Where are my eyes? I’m staring at her nipples because I am afraid they are about to come onto my plate. In my face you can see the fear. I’m so frightened that everything in her dress is going to blow—BOOM!—and spill all over the table.”
