Leslie Fhima Had History With Musician Prince
Golden Bachelor fans were impressed by contestant Leslie Fhima’s life when she was younger. She was a professional ice skater with the Ice Capades and made several fitness videos.
She revealed during a confessional that she once dated musician Prince. In fact, she said she was the inspiration behind his hit song “Sexy Dancer.”
But it turns out that Leslie Fhima isn’t the only Golden Bachelor alum to have a history in the entertainment industry. Golden Bachelorette Joan Vassos was once in a super popular ’80s movie.
Golden Bachelorette Joan Vassos Spotted In Popular ’80s Movie
Nostalgia for the good ole days is at an all-time high. The 1980s are currently having a moment in the spotlight thanks to actor Andrew McCarthy. He released a documentary about one of the most beloved moments in film history: the rash of teen-centric films in the mid-1980s.
Brats, which is now streaming on Hulu, dives into an article published in 1985 that dubbed a group of young actors as the “Brat Pack,” that generation’s version of the famous “Rat Pack” of the 1960s.
The “Brat Pack” included Emilio Estevez, Judd Nelson, Rob Lowe, Andrew McCarthy, Demi Moore, Molly Ringwald, Ally Sheedy, and more. Andrew McCarthy was able to track down and speak to most of those about how the “Brat Pack” label affected their careers.
The article was published just weeks before several members of the supposed “Brat Pack” starred in the movie St. Elmo’s Fire. Well, it turns out that so did Joan Vassos!
She spilled to Entertainment Tonight that she can be spotted in the background of a scene involving Rob Lowe’s character, Billy. Joan had the role of an extra riding a bike in front of the fraternity house.
Despite rubbing elbows with Hollywood’s biggest stars of the decade, Joan Vassos decided not to pursue a career in acting.
Her Celebrity Crush
Joan Vassos gushed over Rob Lowe in the ET interview. “I love Rob Lowe. I think he’s so freaking handsome, and he’s funny, and he’s a great actor,” she said. But he’s not her only celebrity crush.
She revealed that she also has a crush on Yellowstone actor Kevin Costner, who is actually newly single. She described him as the “rugged, sexy guy.”
He should have joined her season of Golden Bachelorette that just started filming and will air this summer.
