Jeanne Carmen – 25 of Frank Sinatra’s Famous Lovers, Wives, and Girlfriends
Jeanne Carmen is ranked number 3 on BUZZTUBE’S list of Frank Sinatra’s lovers, wives, and girlfriends
Carmen may have been considered a B-List actress, but the stunning pin-up model managed to bag Frank Sinatra. She must have been something special. Apparently, Frank even proposed to her, but she turned him down because he would only agree to an open marriage.

Jeanne Carmen -Blue ray DVD release of The Monster of Piedras Blancas
The Monster of Piedras Blancas is finally released on Blue-ray DVD by Olive films on September 13, 2016
Beheadings! Bosoms! Blood! Welcome to the dark side of the 1950s. Made for a mere $29000 in 1959, The Monster of Piedras Blancas looks like a million bucks in high-definition in 2016. Down with the fuzz. We want clarity in our Creature Features and Olive Films absolutely delivers.
“…victims of the guillotine.” That is one medical specialist’s opinion of the freak decapitations happening at the onset of The Monster of Piedras Blancas. Released independently in 1959, this black-and-white horror film is a slice of b-grade deliciousness. It is a knock off of The Creature from the Black Lagoon of course, but the film is also an immortal influence upon more than one of today’s filmmakers. This week, thanks to a fine remastering job by Olive Films, it is granted new life in high-definition.

Here is a brief excerpt:
Jeanne became known as “Queen of the B Movies”, that title was used by E! Television on their series E! The True Hollywood Story in 1998. It was the first widespread coverage on media where Jeanne spoke about her “dangerously close friendship with Marilyn Monroe and The Kennedys”. Jeanne had told this writer that after Monroe’s death she was warned her to leave Hollywood or she’s be leaving in a box like Monroe. It was Chicago mobster Johnny Rosselli who was working with Chicago Mob Boss Sam Giancana. Carmen heeded his advice, packed up all of her belongings and boxed up her career, the films, magazines, glamour photos and left California for a quiet life in Scottsdale, Arizona. She married and had three children along the way. It was her son Brandon and his curiosity while going through boxes that he learned of his mother’s Hollywood career.

Trick shot golfer, Hollywood party girl, Marilyn Monroe pal, kiss-and-tell autobiographer; Jeanne Carmen is all this and more. In the early 1950’s,Carmen took the road often traveled by glamour gals. She competed and won several beauty contest and then tried to parlay that into an acting career. Her first stop was New York, and then it was off to Hollywood. Along the way, she became a favorite of the cheesecake crowd first as a brunette and then later as you classic blonde bombshell. At the age of 18, she was taught to be a trick golfer by tirck shot master Jack Redmond. This was all a gimmick done just to sell women’s golf wear, but it wound up being Carmen’s passkey into the world of the Hollywood’s elite.
At the Actor’s Studio she met up with fellow glamour gal Marilyn Monroe. This friendship last until Monroe’s death and included enough juicy escapades to fill page after page in Carmen’s tell-all book “JEANNE CARMEN: MY WILD, WILD LIFE AS A NEW YORK PIN UP QUEEN, TRICK-SHOT GOLFER & HOLLYWOOD ACTRESS” And those celebrities, according to Carmen, included JFK, RFK, Elvis, Sinatra, and Bob Hope, just to name a few. (You can read her true confessions here: page 1, page 2, page 3, and page 4.)
During her party girl heyday, she did manage to become a B-movie Queen with such films as “The Three Outlaws,” “The Monster of Piedras Blancas” and “Untamed Youth” (alongside Mamie Van Doren).
Carmen never made the sort of cultural impact that her pal Monroe made, but became of those great Hollywood icons known more for their exploits off screen rather than on.Carmen’s legacy as a glamour gal has been brought to a new generation with a recent E! True Hollywood Story based on her–where the still fabulous Carmen kiss-and-tells all over again.
There is a great website about her, JeanneCarmen.com, run by her son Brandon James.Carmen can still be seen around hitting all the cool night spots. In fact, she was one of the special guests at the first JBP Cocktails & Cheesecake Party in April 2006.
