Jane Fonda calls Marlon Brando ‘disappointing’
Jane Fonda is spilling new information about her early days in the entertainment world.
The 82-year-old actress, who has been married three times in her life, says that while she doesn’t “think about” losing out on her chance with Che Guevara, she does regret not sleeping with the man behind both “Let’s Get It On” and “S-xual Healing” in an interview with the New York Times.
When asked about her relationship with Marlon Brando, with whom she co-starred in the 1966 thriller The Chase, Fonda didn’t appear to be wooed by the late actor.
Fonda merely stated, ‘Disappointing…,’ although she did praise him as a “great actor.”
Her biggest regret, she admitted, was turning down Marvin Gaye.

“Your greatest regret is that you never had s-x with Che Guevara,” said Times reporter Maureen Dowd, who was abruptly interrupted by Fonda. Fonda explained, “No, I don’t think about him.”
“Who I do think about, and what is a great regret is Marvin Gaye. He wanted to and I didn’t. I was married to Tom [Hayden]. I was meeting a lot of performers to try to do concerts for Tom and the woman who was helping me do that introduced me to Marvin Gaye,” the 82-year-old said.
She added, “apparently he had my picture on his refrigerator. I didn’t find that out until later, after he was dead.”
Fonda married the left-wing activist/politician in 1973 for 17 years. Hayden died in the year 2016. They two shared 47-year-old son Troy Garity.
Gaye was fatally murdered by his father at their Los Angeles home in 1984.
Brando and Gaye were rumored to have slept together, which is interesting.
‘Brando would fuck anything,’ Quincy Jones told Vulture in 2018 about Marlon’s ravenous desire for s-x. ‘Anything! He’d fuck a mailbox. James Baldwin. Richard Pryor. Marvin Gaye.’
‘We didn’t really think too much about it because we know the facts,’ Gaye’s son said of the claims. ‘My dad was a ladies man. Everybody loved my dad but my dad didn’t have anything against homos-xuals. He was about love. I think he would have laughed it off personally.’
Fonda spoke up to PEOPLE in 2018 about how she used to be defined by the men in her life — until she chose to be alone again in her sixties.
In an edition of the Jess Cagle Interview, she told former PEOPLE editor-in-chief Jess Cagle, “Up until my sixties, I was to an extent, defined by the men in my life.”
“I was brought up to please,” she said. “I wanted my father to love me so I would turn myself into a pretzel to be what he wanted me to be, not necessarily what I already was.”
“It took me getting into my sixties, and then I began to become who I was supposed to be all along,” she continued.
Fonda describes her Blue Bird co-star Ava Gardner as “the s-xiest woman I ever met” on the female side of the equation.
“Without question,” Fonda says. “She was a mensch, a true mensch, and she was a babe.”
Despite her long history of relationships, the Grace and Frankie actress claims she has “no interest” in dating at this time.
“I don’t have time. I am fully complete with me and my children and my grandchildren and my friends,” she says of her three children, Mary Luana, 52, Vanessa, 51, Troy, 47. “I don’t want any more romance. I don’t have time for it.”
“Just about every day I’ll be in the middle of something and think, ‘I would never have had time to do this or read this if I was trying to keep a relationship good… Zero,” she adds, before sharing that she’s “not lonely.”
“I’ve never been lonely,” she says. “I’ve never been bored or lonely in my life.”
What Can I Do? is Fonda’s new book. My book, From Climate Despair to Climate Action, will be released on September 8th.
