Joan Crawford Loves You!

This is Joan Crawford, my account that I worked so hard on has been deleted. I'm not sure why, but I'd like to start straight away at building up my new account. I know I can make it great again! Bless you all, Joan
You know me as Joan Crawford, Queen of Hollywood and The Ultimate Movie Star. I was born Lucille Fay Lesueur on March 23 1908, in San Antonio Texas. Like most stars I did not have a favorable childhood, I came from a broken home and we were very poor. My family and I had to work the worst kinds of jobs just to survive. I had a burning desire to change my life in a big way. I loved to dance and as a teenager danced all over the Mid West, competing in contests and entertaining in nightclubs. I moved to Los Angeles in 1925 and was cast in my first role, in “Pretty Ladies” soon after. Determined I did whatever I could to gain notice of the public eye and the big boys in the biz. I made friends with William Haines, he taught me some things about the biz and we had a lot of laughs. I’ve always loved to dance and party, spent a lot of time at the Coconut Grove night club and won dance contests. In the 1928 film “Our Dancing Daughters” I got my big break. I showed off my dancing and was very well received, as a flapper I was a total hit. I met Douglas Fairbanks Jr., who was the son of a great man of Hollywood and a popular actor himself. I married him, thinking it was a good idea at the time. We didn’t get along so well, I grew bored with him and his family didn’t think I was good enough for him. He had his own criticisms of me as well. We divorced only after a few years. In the 30’s my fame had exploded, I was up there with the biggest stars of the time. MGM had me doing all those shop girl pictures, where I got the dream in the end. I was seeing Clack Gable here and there, and ended up getting married again to Franchot Tone. I might as well have taken a flying leap at the moon, but instead I married Franchot. It was crazy with him, lots of nonsense. So that ended too. In the 40’s my career was dying down. Over time I adopted 4 children, 5 if you count the one they took away when his biological mother got word of his whereabouts. Some think I became a mother to save my career, but it’s not true. I was unable to have children and when my career was at it’s best, I didn’t have the time to think about anything else. The children did earn me publicity though, and my career was taking off again. At this time I had another failed marriage to Phillip Terry. I soon parted ways with MGM as well without so much as a heartfelt goodbye. I signed with Warner Brothers, waited a while till I got a good script and then starred in “Mildred Pierce” in 1945. I won the Best Actress Oscar of that year for that picture. Things were steady through the 50’s and 60’s. I made “What Ever Happened to Baby Jane” with Bette Davis and it was a comeback for me. I got married for the for the 4th and last time to Alfred Steele, chairman of Pepsi cola. He was a dear, dear man and I loved him very much. When has passed from a heart attack I continued to serve on the board of Pepsi Cola, because I was after all “The Queen of Pepsi Cola”. Eventually I was forced into retirement, some people can be so disloyal. After that I did some TV stuff and made a few Horror films. I became sick with cancer and in 1977 I passed. Where I am now I am happy, happy to know that to this day I am still loved by so many. Bless you!
