Whose that girl?


Can you name either one? Just one hint. Neither of them are Madonna but one of them is just about the only singer in the 1980's who was as big a whore. Just sayn'

Cyndy Lauper on the left. Not sure about the one on the right.

I'm thinking Pia Zodora on the left.

I'm gonna second NYTNY. Even as a whore Zadora was such a comedown from the Gabor sisters.

Yes that is indeed the one and only Pia Zadora. With Alison
LaPlaca.

I actually got Pia Zadora, but wasn't sure, of course. Love her dress.

Who could ever forget this cinematic masterpiece? 8 nominations for the 1982 Golden Raspberry Awards!

Butterfly is a 1982 film directed by Matt Cimber, based on the 1947 novel The Butterfly by James M. Cain. The starring cast includes Stacy Keach, Pia Zadora, Ed McMahon, and Orson Welles. The original music score was composed by Ennio Morricone. The film was financed by Pia Zadora's husband, Israeli multimillionaire Meshulam Riklis, at an estimated cost of US$2,000,000.

The movie was almost universally panned by film critics. The film received 8 nominations for the 1982 Golden Raspberry Awards, with Pia Zadora winning "Worst Actress" and "Worst New Star", and Ed McMahon winning "Worst Supporting Actor". Nevertheless, Pia Zadora won "Best Female Newcomer" at the Golden Globes for her role, over Elizabeth McGovern and Kathleen Turner. This occurred after her husband flew members of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association to Las Vegas to watch Pia sing, producing accusations that the award had been "bought".

Yes, but it did have a great love scene with a hose.

I love Alison LaPlaca.
