WATCHING JACKIE WAS A NIGHTMARE Jan 22 2005
.. AND THAT'S HER SON TALKING
SYLVESTER Stallone has broken his silence on his mother and ex-wife's appearance on Celebrity Big Brother to describe the show a "nightmare".
The 58-year-old actor was so horrified by the programme that he couldn't bear to watch a tape of it.
He said his mum, Jackie, was "crazy" and her new found friendship with Brigitte Nielsen a pretence.
The Rambo star was particularly appalled viewers saw his mother first thing in the morning. "You won't believe it," he told a friend. "She had to wake up in the morning with no make-up."
Under secrecy rules Jackie was not allowed to tell her son she was going to be in the show. Asked if he'd seen a tape he replied: "No, I'm almost afraid to look at it. I saw the soundbites - it was a nightmare."
Jackie, who was the first to be voted off, claims to be 71 but a friend said she was 84. Sources in the US also revealed she carries a fake driving licence which shows she was born in 1939 - making her 65.
Jackie's appearance has boosted Sly's UK movie sales by 300 per cent.
