Star is Born publicity

Digging through some of my collection over the holidays, I found a lot of "gossipy" articles surrounding A Star is Born. Most of them were short on details and long on insinuation. The above article is a typical example. I don't remember which magazine it come from (probably one of Rona Barrett's- it seemed every issue had some mention of Barbra in it). I didn't keep the whole magazine, Barbra wasn't on the cover so I didn't see any reason to keep the whole thing.

From personal observation, it seems that A Star is Born got the most "bad" publicity of any of her movies. Just goes to show you that "scandal" articles like the silly one above sells magazines. It got me to buy the magazine!
