In the kindest way, I wish she didn’t get famous, because she didn’t even get to experience a normal life at any point. God bless her.

@Highinsight7 if this happened to a huge star like Judy can u imagine all the other girls from small towns that got to Hollywood & had their dreams & lives destroyed by people w/ so much more power than they could ever dream of. I read Tatum O'Neal 's book ( man was that the most raw & painfully honest bio ever from an actress in Hollywood. So many horrible things about a lot of big stars from Micheal Jackson Tom cruise which were all positives , to Melanie Griffith that pretended to be her friend just to add another powerful older man to a notch on her 18 year old belt ! Tatum mentions how she walked in on her & her then very famous father Ryan O'Neal in bed together. Which is do gross given Melanie was only 18 & Ryan about 33 legal but Melanie was still only 18. Tatum mentions how Melanie bragged that she had already slept w many big names including Harrison Ford. Which really says a lot about him that he slept w/ carrie Fischer who was only 19 while he was a 33 year old married father of 2. So reading he also slept w/ Melanie sometime when she was 18 or under shows the kind of guy he really was behind the all positive press he constantly received. She also said Melanie slept w/ Warren beatty jack Nicholson & lived w/ Don Johnson when she was only 15 he 25. It seems thats sadly the Hollywood mentality given her mom Tippi hedren was another starlet who's carrer was destroyed b/c Alfred Hitchcock was obsessed w/ her & signed her to an iron clad 7 picture deal. He repeatedly came on to her & Tippi constantly spurned him so hitch got real ugly w/ her & refused to let her out of her contract & told her if she didn't sleep w/ him he'd make sure she never worked again. Tippi who I give huge credit to told him " do what yr gonna do hitch " & he did. I think she did one movie w/ him at that point then he actually treated her like garbage filming " the birds" where he actually went way too far having these mechanical birds really pecking at her take after take getting back at her for not sleeping w/ him. So despicable. Even if she did sleep w/ him her career was over anyway. He wouod have have kept expecting her to sleep w/ him over & over & the moment she got sick of it he'd ruin her anyway. So at least she figured my career is over either way so why give in to this creep. Obviously she knew nobody would listen to her. Cause isn't that considered blackmail ? If u tell someone when money is involved do this or else I'll ruin u. Money obviously her career & livelihood. That's why it's sad that her daughter raised in that environment went the weird opposite way . Maybe it was Melanie's own way of weilding power w/ her sexuality. Anyway the book really gives so much insight not just about her abusive narcissistic father but how Hollywood works. When she spoke of Micheal Jackson she talks about how he had a huge crush on her & invited her as his date to premiere of the wiz. Tatum was maybe 14 & she tells how her power agent forbid her from attending b/c of Micheal being black ! How it would look bad for her career. How sad that even in the late 70s & Micheal not yet " thriller " Micheal that took over the world but still a very famous young guy & imagine Tatum agent saying b/c he's black it would look bad on her career. Tatum said she never forgave herself for blowing him off & Micheal never forgave her either. When Tatum was just a kid & was pressured by her stupid agent to cancel on him last minute. Anyway what was really sad is what she wrote about her mother actress Joanna Moore known mostly for episodic TV & small Parts in westerns in the 60s. Moore came from such a tiny town in Georgie that the town didn't have even one stop light. She also came to Hollywood w/ big dreams got signed by the studio system & they hooked her right away on speed to keep her thin & working everyday that the rest of her life she was addicted to something. Meeting Ryan having 2 of his kids less than a year apart & getting dumped by him as her career was almost completely over at the age of 30. What a sad shame.

I downloaded the extended version of The man that got away, and listen to it daily. I knew of the pain and loneliness that she experienced, but to hear the anger and sadness in her voice breaks my heart. All she ever wanted was love and acceptance, but I don't think she realized just how loved she was. How very sad.

It all started when I was 6 and molested by a family member, and then it seemed to just keep happening by different people I trusted, even up until my teen and young adult years. For so long I walked through life without any support, so I didn’t know how to be that support for myself. Once I found it, I was opened up to a whole new world of possibilities. What I can tell you, for those that may be seeking answers for their own healing, is that there is still so much value in your life and in who you are. The truth is, despite what someone or multiple people put your physical body through, your energy and spirit remain untouched. Who you are beneath it all can never be harmed, your soul is so precious. Even with this, you are not defined by the acts of another. The fact that we are all still here today, carrying on to bravely share our stories, that is inspiring and earth-shaking. Raw in every sense, pure essence is always authentic and unconditional. If you are still reading this far, I love you from the furthest depths of my heart and soul. I SEE YOU. I hear you. I feel you. We may never fully understand each other’s paths and what it took to get to where we are now, but that is what makes our individual experiences so unique. I wish for you to see the light and beauty within yourself again. To not see your eyes through the lens of a tainted heart. Tap into your true essence and shine as the beacon you are, guiding the rest along the way.

If we had the laws that we have now back then, she wouldn’t have gone down this path. She kept on going with her life until the end, all because she knew she had to be there for her children, everything she ever did to fix the problems in her life were to make sure that her children were able to have a mother who could raise them.

It's bad enough being an ordinary woman feeling unappreciated by every one around her being the emotional creatures we are. Imagine it on the scale she had to face every single day of her life. Your life published for the world to see. Some true, some not. She tried and she tried and she changed herself to be what everyone wanted her to be so she could just feel that unconditional love she lost in her late father. I can't even imagine the rage she must've felt.

Judy, Marilyn, and many others were not appreciated or loved until after their death. They were pretty much ridiculed and all mistakes were magnified for all the world to see. What's sad is that we still do it today, as with Jessica, Lohan, Spears and many others. If something (god forbid) was to happen to any of them, everyone would sing another tune and talk about how great they were and act like they never said an unkind word about them.

When you let drugs/booze/anger tell your experiences, you lose. Who knows what this woman was beyond the love and adoration of her family but know that the weird stuff of celebrity can do so much. Celebrity is the problem and the craving for it. She was honest in feeling the mess of this, that we must respect.

She wasn't "ugly", she was just pretty. When you watch Ziegfeld Girl you notice it. You've got Hedy Lamarr and Lana Turner, two glamorous women, and Judy, who was just sorta cute. No doubt, she definitely was not ugly at all, but she was like the cute girl next door, not the vixen like Lana Turner.

The people around her used her like a tissue, and threw her away. She was a cash cow for her family and MGM. They broke her with criticism of her looks, and controlled her with drugs and intimidation. You can tell from these tapes how prevalent the drug and alcohol abuse was in her life, and how afraid she was of being forgotten. Is it a pity party? Perhaps, but she deserves our pity. She was a powerhouse of talent, paraded around for our entertainment, and when she didn't please us anymore, we discarded her, forgot her, abandoned her for the newer model. She deserved to be loved for the person she was, Baby Francis Gumm, the child with the woman's voice. In many ways, Judy always remained a little girl who just wanted and needed to be loved. We love you, Judy! We will never forget you!

The thing about talented people is they usually have more sensitivity than the rest of us, then they're put under more pressure than regular folk to preform..more,more,more..make money, dance, sing, then they break...this happens time and time again to different artists yet nothing changes. When will we learn to treat these people with the respect they deserve?

The agents leave her behind! I’m mad, I am mad enough and yet still very self-conscious but I’m gonna write a book. And I’m gonna talk. Because I can do something besides sing, you know. I don't always have to sing a song. There is something besides The Man That Got Away or Over the Rainbow or The Trolley Song. There's a woman. There are three children. There's me! There's a lot of life going here! I wanted to believe, and I tried my damndest to believe, in the rainbow that I tried to get over. And I couldn't! So what?! Lots of people can't! But I'm not lots of people. I'm me. I’m the one who’s had to live with me. I don’t wanna hear any resentment from anybody else now about how difficult I am, and I don’t wanna pick up a paper and read how unfit a mother I am when I have three marvellous children who seem to take and have always loved me. Fat, thin, funny, sad, they think I’m pretty good. I think they’re great! I have loved and have never planned revenge. However […] however this book turns out is because I am the result of an audience, of a critic, of critics, of what people have made me! And in the meantime, there's been another whole human being.

I do believe in going to church. I love music. I love a lot of things that the people around me, that have surrounded me all my life-- all my forty-four goddamn, marvellous, failing, successful and hopelessly tragic and star-glitzed years, I’ve been surrounded by people who are not in my league. They were the disbelievers, now they’re gonna have to put up with their names being printed. They better not sue because I’m only gonna write the truth. In the meantime, how do I find the true Judy Garland, or Francis Gumm, or whatever it is? Is it a girl or a woman? I get angry, but I’ve never been loudly angry. I can get angry in front of my friends. I do […] get so frustrated. It’s very difficult-- it’s all well and good for you people, publishers. Now this is not to be included in my book-- they just take fifty pages, but you can’t write how nervous my hands get, or how lost I might get when I have to remember because I went through five years of psychoanalysis, going back over a life that was no good to begin with, no fun, and is-- I’m doing it purely for money! Because I deserve it. I’ve sung. I’ve entertained. I’ve pleased your children. I’ve pleased your wives. I’ve pleased you, you sons of bitches! And you can’t deny that! Now the government isn’t pleasing me very much! They’re not protecting me, they’re not gonna move the house away, with the kids. Sid Luft […] is some kind of animal-- a lot of people belong in, I think, in Southern California, called the La Brea Tar Pits! I’ve maintained a way of life to not sink with the sludge!

She was mostly surrounded by people who generated money from her talent. It seems that's all they were interested in. I can't imagine working my whole life watching other celebrities make vulgar amounts of money with little ,if any, of the talent she had, and to come out flat broke. The resentment would eat a person alive. Addictions are a horrible thing. Sometimes insurmountable. Betrayal in any form is heartbreaking.Any one of these things alone would be crippling .Combine these things together and with things we as fans have no knowledge of and the torment would have been more than most people could bear. Yet, this fragile human being managed to pull through year after year. For those who felt she was unattractive , they need only to look at the St. Louis picture to see her physical beauty. Combined with the beauty she had inside she was far more beautiful than Turner,Taylor and the others. That is my humble opinion.
