Richard Pryor’s wife confirms he slept with Marlon Brando

Following a highly revealing Vulture interview in which Quincy Jones claimed, among other things, that Marlon Brando slept with Richard Pryor, the comedian’s widow corroborated the allegation on Wednesday (Feb. 7).

Jones told Vulture, “Brando used to go cha-cha dancing with us. He could dance his ass off. He was the most charming motherfucker you ever met.”

Jones went on to say, “He’d fuck anything. Anything! He’d fuck a mailbox. James Baldwin. Richard Pryor. Marvin Gaye… He did not give a fuck!”

Pryor’s widow has now confirmed that it’s all accurate!

According to Jennifer, Richard would have no qualms with Quincy’s remarks. She claims that the comedy icon was always honest about his homosexuality with his pals and kept detailed journals about it. Jennifer plans to release them later this year.

“It was the ’70s!” Jennifer Lee Pryor told TMZ. “Drugs were still good, especially quaaludes. If you did enough cocaine, you’d fuck a radiator and send it flowers in the morning.”

Throughout his life, Pryor married seven times and had five different wives.

Pryor married Jennifer Lee in August 1981, but the couple divorced in October 1982. They wedded in June 2001 and lived together until Pryor’s death in December 2005.

Rain Pryor, Pryor’s daughter, has resorted to Facebook to refute the charges in a series of posts.

“Daddy did NOT have relations with Brando,” she writes. “There were no trips to his South Pacific Oasis, no flowers or love notes between. Not even a film role.”

Rain goes on: “Why this sudden need to drag Daddy through the Hollywood mud? I find it tasteless and infuriating. At least get the details right, but of course we live in the age of faux news is real unless we disagree for our own agendas, and people need to stay relevant by dishing dirt.

She continues to disregard Jones’ remarks, claiming he “was once a brilliant music producer who is losing his mind and decided to garner publicity for himself with a sensationalized interview.”
