Rumors have it that Britt was originally tapped to play Andrea
Anders in The Man with the Golden Gun, a role that went to two-time Bond-er Maud Adams, but producers changed their mind when they saw her in a bikini (source). This worries me a bit, especially since I have her here at number 17, but when you see what she is willing to do I think you will agree she is where she belongs. Just before Bond and Mary Goodnight (another good name) are about to bump uglies they are interrupted and she is initially hidden under the sheets, but then Bond throws her in the closet... Where she stays all night while Bond has the sexy time with another woman and gets a good night's rest. The next morning she is peeved, but who can stay mad at Bond for long...? Not Mary Goodnight and that earns Mary her spot. Oh, and she shows up in a bikini in the movie and I am not about to complain and neither will you. So phooey to that rumor! |

Biography "It was one of the most enjoyable things I've ever done," says Ekland, of her comic turn as Bond's Girl Friday Mary Goodnight in 1974's The Man with the Golden Gun. "But it did nothing for my career." Perhaps not, though the Swedish-born actress did eventually turn up in 1989's Scandal as a decadent English socialite sporting gold-painted nipples. "But you can get more publicity [from a Bond film] than you've ever had in your life," she says. Actually, Ekland (whose former beaux include Warren Beatty, Ryan O'Neal and Rod Stewart) has hardly lacked for attention. At 20 she wed actor Peter Sellers, then 37. Their five-year union produced a daughter, actress Victoria Sellers, now 30. She also has a son, Nikolai, from her relationship with record honcho Lou Adler, now an L.A. restaurateur. In 1980 she took up with Stray Cats drummer Jim McDonnell. (She was 38, he was 20.) Married four years later and divorced in 1992, they have a son, Thomas Jefferson, who lives with Ekland in London and L.A. Currently single, Ekland cut short her stage tour last spring in the farce Run for Your Wife because, she says, "you can't do theater with a little child. There's a car full of dirty laundry waiting to be done." |
