...wells, motels, ranches and the use of his name on merchandise. As an actor, Robertson can hardly say heck with his hands tied, but he is probably the best horseman in television, and his shy. Sunday-go-to-meetin' smile provokes what an agent describes as "the sexiest mail in Hollywood." Gimmick: he draws his .38 with his left hand ("That's so's they can't git the drop on me while Ah'm shakin' hands"). Born in Harrah, Okla., Dayle LyMoine Robertson earned a Silver Star during World...
...first U.S.-born Metropolitan Opera prima donna ever to sing in the U.S.S.R., Mezzo-Soprano Blanche Thebom, came home with some wide-eyed observations about Soviet singers, recollections of a visit to a Kremlin museum, laurels from Moscow critics and audiences for wowing them with their sexiest Carmen ever.

Of Italy's Cinemorsel Gina Lollobrigida: "Too obvious and never really sexy." Of Sophia Loren: "Sexy, very sexy, all sexy, the sexiest on earth." Of Marilyn Monroe: "A puppy, a kitten, a little chick!" Of Composer Cole Porter and Prince Aly Khan: "I don't know love, but for them I felt something more than friendship. Maybe it was really and truly love! If I were 40 years younger. . ." Then, snapping that...
Blonde, well-rounded Marilyn Monroe is admired (or deplored) the world over as the sexiest little number in the movies. But Marilyn herself would prefer to be remembered by posterity as a dramatic actress. Fed up over her salary (a stark $1,500 a week) and the "commercial" attitude of her boss, 20th Century-Fox, Marilyn began a revolt in Manhattan: she called a press conference...
