The G-Men, the Glitterati, and the Gossip
by Minnie Musgrave
All red-blooded Americans can agree on one thing: There’s a different shade of red threatening to wash away our stars and
stripes. Communist influences are infiltrating everywhere, even our own entertainment industry: That’s where J. Edgar Hoover
and his G-men come in.
We can count on the FBI to defend American freedom and protect American values, and rumor has it that government agents have
been spotted around some of Hollywood’s hottest haunts—men in suits don’t exactly blend in around here. These men are dedicated
to protecting the entertainment industry from those seeking to insert damaging influences. What does this mean, my fellow
Americans? Well, I’ll tell you: Thanks to their efforts, we can go to the movies with a clear conscience.
Beginning May 9, Chairman Thomas himself will hold hearings at the Biltmore Hotel—closed to the public and disappointingly
hush-hush, but I hear these will mostly involve minor union members rather than our stars. Thomas has promised to keep us
members of the press updated, but if you have an inside connection, well, you know what to do. Tip line below, dolls.
As for the glitterati, none seem particularly bothered by the impending hearings or government agents on their turf. Bogey
and Bacall were spotted with a group of friends at the Formosa Café while other stars were recently caught engaging in far
less innocent practices.
On the set of Lady Bella Donna last November, the two leads were seen emerging from Miss Worthington-Fox’s dressing room.
Last November! Shame on all of you for keeping such a titillating tidbit from me until now.
What were Hollywood’s Hartthrob and his past love doing behind closed doors between takes?
According to my sources, by the looks of them, let’s just say if their on-screen chemistry sizzles, there might be a good explanation for it.
What do we think, film fans? Is the couple back together, or were they simply enjoying some workplace perks? Lady Bella Donna premieres this month, so we might soon find out.
