The Most Famous Jealousy Picture
The setting was a welcome party for the celebrated Italian actress Sophia Loren. The last guest to arrive was the flirtatious and suggestively-dressed American actress Jayne Mansfield. Prone to wearing revealing clothing, Loren was quite upset by the stunt Mansfield pulled to draw all the attention to herself. Loren commented on that fateful evening, “In my face you can see the fear. I’m so frightened that everything in her dress is going to blow—BOOM!—and spill all over the table.”
The Perfect Reenactment
How well did the stars of Modern Family pull off the famous Sophia Loren/Jayne Mansfield photo? Their version has obviously been done for comic effect, and we give both Julie Bowen and Sofia Vergara full credit for getting this so right. At least in this case the woman in the white dress isn’t too exposed.
