Hollywood Sex Sirens of Yesteryear

Hollywood Sex Goddesses of Yesteryear

Stars looked amazing all the time, some things were left private and, most of all, the movies, and the actresses in them, were amazing.

Jayne Mansfield

Jayne Mansfield (born Vera Jayne Palmer; April 19, 1933-29 June 1967) was an American actress and Playboy centerfold.

One of the leading sex symbols of the 1950s, like Marilyn Monroe, Mansfield starred in several popular Hollywood films that emphasized her platinum-blonde hair, dramatic hourglass figure, and cleavage-revealing costumes. She was a recipient of a Golden Globe Award and a Theatre World Award for two early screen and stage performances.

Though Mansfield appeared in several popular Hollywood films, her status in the industry proved fleeting, and she was quickly relegated to low-budget melodramas and comedies. Negative publicity and poor business decisions eventually forced her into regional nightclub appearances before her death in an automobile accident at the age of 34.
