Unusual relationship – Marlene Dietrich and Eddie Fisher

In his autobiography „Eddie: My Life, My Loves”, American singer and entertainer Eddie Fisher (1928-2010) wrote that when he was young, he had an “unusual relationship” with German  actress and singer Marlene Dietrich (1901-1992).

During her life, famous German actress, whose real name was Maria Magdalene Dietrich, was never ashamed of her love affairs. She even boldly admitted that she slept with American President John F. Kennedy when she was 62 years old.

However, when an auction of her books was held in one Parisian bookstore, they found her copy of Fisher's autobiography. Next to the section where he described their „unusual relationship“, Marlene scrawled:

“You said it, kid. We never met.”
