Q&A
Is this one of those parties with Warhol taking photos and notes?
Yes, he was inside the rhino, looking through a peephole big enough for his camera lens.
Kids today have no idea how hot it is inside these rhinos.
It's ok until the comically tiny fan goes out.
Legend has it this was actually the inspiration for a sequence in the 1995 comedy masterpiece Ace Ventura 2: When Nature Calls.
I mean it's so absurd I wanna think it could be true.
Truly the zenith of American comedy.
"Pretty hot in these rhinos..."
Okay I forgot what this club was called, but one of my friends was a fan of it back in the day. It was wild, they had different art exhibits and themes all the time. It’s not open anymore IIRC
Edit: it was called AREA and it closed in ‘87. Very hot club that attracted many models and celebrities!
The dress code looks Hefty
“I then saw Roy Cohn, and he was with 3 beautiful young men”
1985 is a hell of a drug
The 80s were the best thing that ever happened. Miami Vice, Italo Disco, Fantastic action movies. Imminent nuclear destruction, Leaded gasoline... Do I need to continue?
The invention of the credit score. So many neon malls.
AIDS epidemic
My birth
The biggest offender really..
/s No you're great. When you see Satan next give him my regards.
Crack
She used to bring multiple women home for him to have sex with… he says it was exhausting lol 😂
I saw him tell this story on some talk show and it was so funny because he was just like "I was getting up early to work out, I was tired." lol bless
Men and women, but yes, they fucked everyone that moved
In the '60s, I made love to many, many women, often outdoors, in the mud and the rain, and it's possible a man slipped in. There would be no way of knowing.
You were in the parking lot earlier, that’s how I know you!
He has no wallet, I checked.

Really makes me wonder how things would have progressed if AIDS didn't happen. Sounds like late-70/ early -80s was a frickin orgy time.
Thanks Cocaine.
Cocaine causes impotence
for some but not for others
No no, that's only if you do too much cocaine. Or not enough cocaine. Or stop doing cocaine. What I'm trying to say is that as long as there's just the right amount of cocaine, it'll be ok! And if you can't get it up you can probably come up with some super dope business ideas together.. ideas that will totally still hold up the next morning :)
For you maybe
TIL Dolph Lundgren is a bisexual icon
And is a genius with the degrees to prove it.
Don't have to be a genius to get a PhD. Just pretty smart and very very hard-working.
The 80s....was one helllofa drug.
Their sextapes would be legendary.
Crime, full penetration
Until the movie just sort of... ends
…
THAT IS BRILLIANT
Smells like a winner
Don't cover up that body with a lab coat bro.
He nose the truth
If he dies, he dies.
I must break you.
Is that true? Lol
Absolutely. It started affecting his new found acting career. He couldn’t keep up with Graces sexual appetite. Eventually she became jealous of his stardom and they broke up. So he says… but makes sense as her career was headed in a downward spiral while his was just getting started
I had heard Grace Jones had quite a “healthy” sexual appetite but I had never heard about her relationship with Dolph. Thanks for the info
By the way are you interested in old school (and I mean 20s-60s) salacious celebrity scandals and gossip? If so you gotta read “Hollywood Babylon”. I’ve read it 4 times. The stuff early celebs got into is insane!!
She used to party at a nightclub down the block from me in Atlanta. She definitely had an appetite for drugs and sex.
Just keep in mind that Hollywood Babylon is 85% bullshit.
That 15% though! WOW.
Do you like movies about gladiators?
I thought they were a couple at that time.
They absolutely were. Swingers :)
He needs a mesh tank top
Either that or an open leather vest. He definitely has the physique for it.
I mean body mass alone
That's what I was trying to avoid... a conversation about body mass.
The always sunny references have me crying at my desk.
What about a sweet leather duster?
Goes great with ocular patdowns when it looks badass
I think an open duster would suit him nicely
This guy Nose the truth
Yeah yeah yeah! And what if his entire head is just one big nose?!?!...write that down, I like that!
Never mind them, what happened to that poor rhino?
That is the first time I have seen rhinoceros bondage. The wealthy sure have some unusual kinks.
Rhino bondage is only for the extra horny crowd
Ya gotta have a thick skin to run with them.
Damn, all the good puns have already been poached!
Rhinoceros
👈 Get outta here, who let you back in? Go on now, get...
The wealthy have a kink for oddities in general, and both Dolph Lundgren and Grace Jones were oddities in their own rites, but together as a couple, they were right up there with a sculpture of a rhinocerous in bondage.
Need for novelty. If you don't have, for example, the mind of a scientist to discover new things, you have to create novelty. There's also a segment of the population who craves attention, plus there's the self-promotion aspect for career.
Of course, Lundgren could have become a chemical engineer.
You mean DR. Lundgren /s
Pretty sure he has two degrees in science and a doctorate.
Wealthy? He can’t afford a shirt!
Derelicte!
This is the inside of a club, the rhino is decor.
Dolph said he had to break up with Grace because she would party until 3, then show up at their apartment with a group of people to fuck. He loved it, but couldn't keep up with her.
Honestly coolest couple on here.
He also once said that it was the first time he dated a woman who could kick his ass
If he dies, he dies. - Grace Jones maybe
They have...
Special tastes.
