Madonna left dirty messages for JFK jr...plus, his wife was a handful
Quote:
John F. Kennedy Jr. may have dated Daryl Hannah and married troubled Carolyn Bessette - but Madonna talked dirty to him on the phone.
That's one of the spicier revelations in William Sylvester Noonan's "Forever Young: My Friendship with John F. Kennedy Jr.," the latest in a string of books about the doomed heir of Camelot.
"A familiar voice was on his answering machine, calling him 'Kennedy' and moaning about being drunk and in Rome and describing exactly what she wanted to do with" him, Noonan writes.
Kennedy practically fell down laughing when Noonan couldn't place the voice.
"Finally, he looked at me, calmly, like it was nothing," he writes. "Madonna."
Noonan, who was one of JFK Jr.'s oldest friends and appeared on the "Today" show yesterday to promote his book, wrote that Kennedy "had a thing for hardheaded - and beautiful - women."
And none were harder to handle than Bessette, according to Noonan's account.
Bessette used drugs, saw a shrink five days a week - and felt overshadowed by the late Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, the book says.
At the wedding rehearsal dinner in 1996, Bessette fretted whether her dress was too revealing for Kennedy Onassis, who had been dead two years by then.
"What do you think Mummy would think?" she asked. "Would she approve of this?"
Bessette couldn't bear the public eye, Noonan wrote.
"They're staring at me," Bessette whispered to Noonan as she looked around a restaurant where they had gone for lunch.
Noonan said he told Bessette, "They did the same thing to Jackie."
"Yeah, well, I need her now, but she's not here," Bessette reportedly replied.
"Carolyn was using drugs, too, and it was taking a toll, making her nervous and sometimes paranoid," Noonan writes.
Kennedy was put off by his wife's "sneaky" behavior. "She is into everything, meddling and manipulating," he once yelled, according to Noonan.
Shortly before the July 1999 plane crash that claimed their lives, Kennedy told his pal that "Carolyn was better."
"But there was something somber in his tone, a portent of some change he didn't get into," Noonan writes.
