Rita Hayworth’s husband made her get a painful treatment to change her hairline. As a staff writer at BuzzFeed, I write about all things celeb and pop culture. She continued, "I remember when I went to the Photoplay Awards with Rock Hudson [in 1953, when she was 20, on a date arranged by the studios]. I was sitting with Joan Crawford, and Grace Kelly was on the dais with Marilyn prancing around in her gold lamé dress. Joan Crawford was so drunk. She was going through hell accepting the turn of the guard [aging]. So I knew that was going to happen to me someday. But people still seemed to see Mamie Van Doren as a sex symbol. I'm not like that. But they expect it. I don't want to cover my face [when out in public]. I'm very proud of my face. I don't want to look younger. Just refreshed. I want to feel good about myself."
