My fav actor. ‘The King of Cool’. Rumour has it that he once turned down a date with Ali McGraw because he was too busy waxing his Belstaff.
I was working in Chicago a number of years ago and sat in a bar watching a baseball game when the guy next to me commented on my Tag Monaco - proceeding to tell me that he sold his when he found out what a (and I'm quoting) "wife beating piece of sh!t" Mcqueen was. When I said I owned the watch because I liked it and not because of the Mcqueen link, he proceeded to lecture me and tell me to sell it until I (not so politely) told him to shut up.
I wasn't aware of his reputation or some of the things he had done.....well worth a read. Especially how he treated McGraw
