Warren Beatty slept with 13,000 women. How is that even possible?
[Updated 4.07 p.m] For all the hot Hollywood actors who are often said to be the biggest celebrity studs, you guys need to read a book.
The Dish Rag thinks Colin Farrell, John Mayer, Jude Law and Gerard Butler should check the new biography, "Star: How Warren Beatty Seduced America."
You guys are amateurs compared to Beatty.
The "Bonnie and Clyde" star's first authorized bio details his career and his hyperactive love life with his leading ladies, emphasis on the plural. And "authorized" means he had to have okayed the author's estimate of his past lovers.
.
[Updated] Warren Beatty's attorney tells the Huffington Post that Biskind's book is not authorized.
"Mr. Biskind's tedious and boring book on Mr. Beatty was not authorized by Mr. Beatty and should not be published as an authorized biography," Bert Fields says.
"It contains many false assertions and purportedly quotes Mr. Beatty as saying things he never said."
Author Peter Biskind's estimate of how many women succumbed to the legendary lothario's prowess?
"12,775 women, give or take, a figure that does not include daytime quickies, drive-bys, casual gropings, stolen kisses and so on."
The women reportedly included Julie Christie, Natalie Wood, Carly Simon (Remember "You're so Vain"?), Faye Dunaway, Diane Keaton, Madonna, Brigitte Bardot, Leslie Caron and Candice Bergen. There's more -- a lot more -- but we only have so much space on the Dish Rag.
Here's some juice about Beatty and Jane Fonda, who met when they auditioned for a teen movie, "Parrish," in 1960. During the audition, he gave her a chaste peck.
"I thought he was gay," Fonda tells Biskind. Director Joshua Logan encouraged him, "Look, are you afraid of Jane or something? Grab her, boy, grab her. Don't be shy."
"Oh, my God. We kissed until we had practically eaten each other's heads off," Beatty tells Biskind.
Beatty later raved about Fonda's sexual skills "due to her ability to virtually unhinge her jaw, like a python that swallows prey much larger than itself."
And then there was Joan Collins, who spotted Beatty looking at her while he was dining with Fonda at La Scala. "He was 22 at the time, but he looked like he was barely old enough to drive."
They became an insatiable couple. Until he tired her out. When asked if she really had sex with Beatty seven times a day, she replied, "Maybe he did, but I just lay there."

Yuck, so are we supposed to reward him for pathetic insecurities and female issues.
He's probably patient zero for every std known to man.
nope, we are to applaud him for living the dream
What a ********!
Oh ick!! Who wants to read a book about his sex life?
To even authorize this kind of info in your book is kind of disrespectful to your wife. If it happened, it happened, but you don't need to relive it.
He was an amazing looking guy when he was young, but weirdly I think he's one of the few men who has gotten less attractive with age. So get over it guy.
it couldn't have been about his looks which weren't all so great. anyway, numbers like these are never about the looks.
That is disgusting!!!!! That's works out to around one woman a night for 35 years. I think he's a big fat liar.
ick. who kisses and tells? obviously he's not a gentleman. i hope he has been std checked. i feel sorry for anyone who thinks that is a goal. to sleep with thousand of woman. that kind of narrowed mindedness shows us whats wrong with people's morals.
sorry, i just don't see the appeal. never did, never will.
HA! I've been screwed by the State and Federal government more than that
...and this statistic proves what? Warren and Hugh should compare (notes?)
