Shaken and stirred: Martini model Deborah Jackson, who died last month at the age of 57, following a stroke

I know this is a bit dated (about a week old) but I do remember "The Martini Girl" from the 1970s (I was still just a kid back then, but the old man was fond of gin.)
This was also an interesting angle of the story:
"On her first flight as a senior stewardess, she had to intervene when a couple in first-class appeared to be engaged in extremely intimate and inappropriate relations across a row of reclining airline seats.
Deborah approached the entwined couple, tapped the gentleman on the shoulder and politely asked if he might desist - at which, to her horror, she recognised John Lennon, who unpeeled himself from Yoko Ono just far enough to shout "F*** off!" at her."
That sounds pretty typical of the dirtbag hippies like Lennon back then. Completely self-absorbed and rude.

Arriving in Beiruit, Deborah's drink was spiked and she woke several hours later to find she'd signed a contract forcing her to work in an up-market brothel

Well, at least it wasn't a low-end brothel!
She had everything - looks, brains and money. But in the end - she had nothing and a hard life. Not one mention of her beliefs...
I also like the way the one sided article points out the evil Christian militias - but fail to say Hizbollah is an islamic militia...

Seems like the middle East is a real good place for women to avoid.
As far as I’m concerned, they can flush the entire region. It seems like hell on earth to me.
Imagine all the people living life in peace.
This article could only have been written by a woman. So namby pamby! So touchy-feely. And her distinct treatment of Christians massacring Palestinians, and those poor Hizbulah rebels being so ruthlessly assassinated by Lebanese soldiers, it sickens one. Of course, living in Londonistan, which I assume she does because it’s the Daily Mail, it’s far more dangerous to insult Mohammedans than Christians.
This reads like a female Forrest Gump...
Sex, drugs, social swinging, Isalmic hedonism... yep, she covered all the bases. A sad, wasted life.
Title is wrong; she wasn’t “sold,” she was involuntarily drugged and in that state, her consent was obtained.
Wow! The last time I read a story like that, it had a painting of Fabio on the cover.
