In the late '80s I worked with a woman who was the sister of Jerry Lewis's former mistress. Although he was always touted as a big family man (no doubt because of his involvement in MSD), one of her better stories about him was this:
At the height of his career in the early '60s, Lewis used to love to have round table meetings with producers, writers and other Hollywood people -- during which he would have a prostitute perform oral sex on him under the table. Lovely. Not my idea of someone who deserves any sort of award despite his many philanthropic achievements. He's a pig. And yeah, I know he's not as bad as some other Hollywood figures, but the constant public anti-gay slurs just negate his "saintliness" all the more. Ick.
