Pia Zadora and Anne Frank

Execupndit had a post on Anne Frank and specifically the question "Who betrayed Anne Frank?" The post made me think of this story about Pia Zadora (if her name doesn't ring a bell don't worry her 15 minutes have long passed).

An urban legend has frequently been circulated that Zadora once starred in a production of The Diary of Anne Frank, in which her performance was so bad that an audience member yelled "She's in the attic!" when the Nazis showed up. Zadora has, in fact, never acted in a production of The Diary of Anne Frank.

I'm an awful person.
