& There is something gorgeous about Madame

Negri‘s affair with Charley Chaplin. She

gave her time exclusively to him. She had no explanations

to make. For a long time the public was

at liberty to draw any conclusions they saw fit.

„Peggy and Charlie Chaplin have been inseparable“

Editorial content. „On the Camera Coast

      By Harry Carr“ (...)

      Pola Negri´s Arrival in Hollywood

      Finds Charlie Chaplin Interested in Peggy Joyce

      THE most interesting event that Hollywood has survived

for a long time is the advent of Pola Negri.

      As a reigning sensation she has cast even Peggy Joyce

into the shade.“ (...)

      The unspoken question at every Hollywood soirée

concerns  the effect that Madam Negri‘s arrival will have upon

the somewhat mercurial Charlie Chaplin.

      Charlie met the lovely Negri in Europe on the occasion

of his recent tour and they were both interested – much.

      Madam Negri‘s arrival, however, finds the talented Charles

very much interested in some one else – Peggy Joyce.

      Fugitive from a distressing tragedy in Paris, Peggy seems

to have been able to dry up her tears and to find

Hollywood a fairly interesting spot on the map.“ (...)

      „There is no other place in the world where the scrutiny

of a celebrity is so close and relentless as at Hollywood,

where life is a sort of big intimate family circle.

      Surveyed under these close conditions, Peggy proves

to be a curiously interesting character. She is not

at all pretty; but she has what Barrie called ,that damn

charm.‘ Come to think, none of the great vamps

of history – Du Barry, Pompadour, Cleopatra – were

especially beautiful. Peggy is well read, seems

to be equally fascinating to men and women, and has a subtle

only–you–and–I–understand manner that is fatal to male

persons. Also, it goes without saying, Peggy is a past mistress

in the matter of understanding men.

      Since the first two or three weeks of her arrival,

Peggy and Charlie Chaplin have been inseparable. They

go to prize-fights and theaters and swimming parties

– oh, just everywhere. The first night that Peggy attended one

of the fights at the Hollywood arena, she almost

stopped the show.

      Her fascinations have failed thus far to make themselves

felt in one quarter, however. The gossip is that

Charlie took his little playmate over to call on Mary Pickford;

and that Mary was most emphatically not at home.

Hence a coolness in the chummiest group in Hollywood.“
