Utilizing a textbook pun for her performing name (let’s face it, parents in the early 20th century were way too austere to give their kids humorous titles, at least intentionally), obscenely curvaceous beauty Candy was a dab hand at sending male audiences wild with her strategic employment of nipple tassels. She also had one of the craziest private lives of all time. Amongst the veritable cornucopia of mad episodes in her life were the following peaches: she befriended Jack Ruby, who would later go on to murder Lee Harvey Oswald; she spent time in prison, publishing a book of poems written during her stretch; she trained Joan Collins; and dated mobster Mickey Cohen. And got naked. A lot.
