Upon her arrival, her furious husband put her over his knee and

management to their door, at which point the husband informed one
and all that he was simply spanking his wife.

amy fisher -
(contributed by mike) - In Amy Fisher's autobiography, she
talks about a spanking she received from her mother for hiding
out at a friend's house when she was supposed to go home.
I put on my galoshes and walked very fast to
Tracy's house. When I get there I tell her: "I never want to
go home again!" Tracy's closet is huge. She's even put a
pillow in there for me. I'm excited. I'm at peace. I'm happy with
my new life. Tracy will hide me in her room, bring me food, and
everything will be good. Three hours later, my mother has figured
it out. She isn't stupid, she knows I'm somewhere. She's called
Tracy's mother and Tracy's mother has come into her bedroom and -
well, there I am. Tracy's parent's drive me home. That was the
only time - ever - that my mother hit me. As soon as I got home,
she looked at me with a face lined by hours of worry on top of
two years of daily stress, turned me over her knee, and slapped
my butt till it was red. "Why did you do that? You had me
worried out of my mind," yelled this woman who never raised
her voice at me. All the frustration of the difficult juggling
act that was her life at twenty-six came out in that spanking,
that plea.

i was always scared of my father, he held military drills with me
and my three brothers. he seemed to pick on me more and if he
felt we didn`t perform to his standards i was the one who was
punished, the boys were sent away and i was either taken across
his knee for a spanking `if i was lucky`, or sent to get the
carpet beater. sometimes i think the carpet beater knew my bare
bottom better than it knew the carpets." - also on a one
hour talk show devoted entirely to britt ekland she spoke about

whatever he could get his hands on to bring me up properly, he
used the carpet beater, a shoe, a wooden spoon, a hairbrush, once
even a birch rod. i really dreaded the carpet beater, the march
to get it from the kitchen cupboard was very long especially when
you knew that this thing would soon whip your bare behind."
(int) "you had to undress?" (b.e.) "yes, always on
the bare, `to smart more` he said." (int) "when was the
last time he punished you like that?" (b.e.) "i had
just turned eighteen and had been to a party, i was late and he
had this system, he had a broomstick against the door and it
didn`t matter how hard i tried to sneak in the handle fell and
woke him up." (int) "and what happened?" (b.e.)

jenny maxwell - (contributed by paul) -
In a book I saw several years ago about Elvis, Jenny Maxwell was
quoted fairly extensively, discussing her famous over-the-knee,
sea-side spanking in "Blue Hawaii." My recollections
here will have to be paraphrased. Ms.Maxwell noted that Elvis
"really hit hard!" because they wanted to make sure the
scene took on a certain validity or authenticity. It was noted by
the author that, in the scene where Jennie rides on horseback,
she was seen on the set "seated gingerly slightly above the
saddle," due to the spanking she'd just endured from her
leading man. What's more, I remember a passage where the author
pointed out that Jennie had, in fact, twisted her ankle on the
set of "Blue Hawaii," and was temporarily hobbling
around with the assistance of a cane. She made a comment, the
author reports, where she'd gotten it "twice," in
"two places" -- referring, of course, to her bruised
ankle AND her bruised behind!

marlo thomas
- (contributed by jan) - the following text was posted on a
newsgroup on the net. - Marlo was spanked by Danny Thomas
well into her late teens. He used to tell the story of Marlo
missing curfew and how he fell asleep in a patio chair while
trying to wait up for her. He was awakened by the automatic
sprinklers spraying him at 1 a.m. He was soaking wet as he saw
her boyfriend drive her to the door. He spanked her all the way
up the stairs but she was wearing several petticoats (the style
of the early sixties) and he didn't think he did any real damage
but she cried from the embarrassment and said " I'm too old
to spank!!!!" (enter

(contributed by cindi) - marlo`s father Danny
thomas once told a funny story regarding Marlo's last spanking.
She was out on a date and late getting back, so a very mad Danny
waited for her out on the patio. He dozed off and woke up soaking
wet as the automatic sprinkler came on and saturated him. Just
then her boyfriend drove her home. Danny was so angry that he
spanked her all the way up the stairs while she cried and said
"I"M TOOOOO OLD TO SPANK!!!!"

peggy &
patsy lynn - (contributed by nobody) - A couple months
ago I happened to be near a TV that was showing the series Crook
& Chase and the guests were The Lynns (Loretta Lynn's
daughters Peggy & Patsy). I wasn't really paying any
attention to it, but I did hear the phrase, "We got more
spankings for that growing up than for anything else."
Unfortunately, I don't know what it was they said they got
spanked for.

rehearsed spanking scene several times in one such eposide and,
in order to punish her, the spanker had given her a hard, real
spanking during the filmed scene.

suzannah lessard - (contributed by mike)
- In her excellent book, The Architect of Desire, the american
writer describes a childhood spanking she received from her
mother: (Suzannah and a friend had been caught by the local
policeman playing a fairly harmless trick on two old ladies that
lived in the village). `The upshot was only that I had to go and
apologize to the the old ladies - not such an easy task for me at
that age. My father stood by me, not only going with me but, when
we were there, refusing to endorse the old ladies’ more
extreme statements about my character and probable future. And
then, when we had returned to the Red Cottage, he took me into
the laundry and took down my jeans and underpants and hit me over
and over. This may have been the first time since our return from
Rome. Certainly it was the first time for a long time, for I had
grown too old to spank.`

tiffany -
(contributed by darren) - the 80's teen singer
"Tiffany" it was reported was spanked by her
step-father.
vanessa
paradis - (contributed by varmint) - during an italian
gameshow in march 98, vanessa mentioned that her father had once
hauled her into the bathroom on a train from paris to nice,
lifted her skirt, and gave her 5 or 6 decent swats. the reason
was because vanessa (14 at the time) had snuck a beer from the
food vendor, lying about her age (which should have been 16).
this wouldn`t have been so bad apparently, except that she had
insured service by pointing out that her father could buy the
train if he wanted to. as she put it: `i said, if that`s not
enough, maybe my father should make some investments here!` the
worst part? the look on everyones face when she came out.
wynonna judd
- (contributed by tracey) - wynonna was spanked by her uncle on
the side of a road for being mean to her sister, this is
described in naomi judd`s book `love can build a bridge`.
whitney
houston - (contributed by jan) - whitney`s mother
cissy`s biography yielded two things. First, there are several
references to her own spanking experiences. Secondly, she
provides a very strong probable for Whitney, her daughter. She
says that she told her husband John that she wanted him to be the
"softie" among the two parents so that when she
"whipped the butts" of the kids they would have someone
to go to. It doesn't explicitly state that Whitney was spanked so
there's no official direct reference for her in this book, but
it's about as close as you can get otherwise.
(contributed by michael) - I saw on Biography (a
show on A & E) that Whitney Houston's mother commented that
Whitney got her last and most severe spanking at 16.
