  I'm going boy, the memories just the old flooded back. I feel like
• 0:09
  I'm in dejah Boo right now. By the way. Anyway, an older
• 0:14
  gentleman by the way, he was only in his dirties, but I thought
• 0:18
  he was a dirty old man because he kept saying, oh, you know,
• 0:22
  you're you know, talking to me. And then he said somehow I
• 0:26
  was talking to someone else and he heard my background and he happened to be
• 0:31
  the CFO. I didn't know this at the time, his company, and
• 0:37
  I said, oh, I love Hong Kong. When I wish I could
• 0:40
  get a job here, I love this place. I really literally fell in
• 0:44
  love with Hong Kong, you know, I you know, I was there
• 0:46
  as a tourist. Anyway, long story short as probably my movie is gonna
• 0:52
  be cooled, that's what everyone says. He started telling me that he,
• 0:57
  you know, the CFO and Bruce Lee's company, and they were looking for
• 1:02
  someone possibly with my credentials. Fortunately, I always carried my letters and references
• 1:08
  around, even you know, as a young girl from Johnny Carson, and
• 1:12
  I also did some other things after Johnny Carson, and so I end up
• 1:18
  literally they of course it's Hong Kong. They sent a rolls horse for me.
• 1:25
  I thought, oh, that's that's pretty impressive. I like that,
• 1:29
  and I'd go into this the probably to this day, the most extraordinary conference
• 1:38
  room I've ever been in. It was unbelievable, and of course it was
• 1:41
  all Bruce Lee's pictures. And I sat down and the secretary came over.
• 1:47
  I have to just tell him this because this is I remember this so clearly.
• 1:49
  I said, what would you like to drink? And it was only
• 1:52
  like one o'clock in the afternoon, and I jokingly said, oh, I'd
• 1:57
  love to have some crystal champagne. I was raised from mc bronx, so
• 2:00
  you know, but I made money, so I had a very you know,
• 2:07
  expensive taste, and believe it or not, literally in a crystal butt
• 2:13
  bucket. A bottle of that champagne I requested came with a golden glass,
• 2:21
  which I wish I had taken that glass. I'm telling you to this day,
• 2:24
  I could have made a fortune on that glass. Anyway, a bunch
• 2:30
  of gentlemen come in and they were all, you know, Bruce Lee was
• 2:32
  I'm not even that tall. I'm only five to seven, and I was
• 2:37
  a little bit taller and Bruce Lee, and he came in and you know,
• 2:42
  it was quite formal, et cetera, et cetera, and literally the
• 2:45
  interview was went on for five hours and I thought, oh, I figured
• 2:53
  im, you know whatever. One story short, I started with him.
• 2:58
  The following week. He put me up in this magnificent peenthouse in that in
• 3:04
  Balloon and you know, in those days, it was it was extraordinary.
• 3:12
  I mean, I had, you know, a lot of people working for
• 3:14
  me, and he absolutely was so protective of me. He was such a
• 3:19
  wonderful, extraordinary person by the way, but he was so protective of me
• 3:23
  that I actually had two bodyguards, you know, I mean some people.
• 3:29
  I mean they would literally walk. I would go to the restroom and they
• 3:31
  would be walking with me to the rest room because guys, you know,
• 3:35
  I'm okay, I'm okay. The only thing I requested a boost Lee,
• 3:38
  and this is this is the fourth side in the contract. I said,
• 3:43
  I want to become a black belt, but I want you to teach me.
• 3:47
  And he said what he was like in shock. I said, yeah,
• 3:51
  yeah, yeah, I'm very athletic to murder. Well my body.
• 3:55
  I became a ground beat and he taught me and let me tell you the
• 4:00
  men who wanted to date me. Once they sold my body, they ran
• 4:03
  away. It was so bruised. I was so I was kind they thought
• 4:10
  some guy beat me up. I just but it was such a to be
• 4:14
  honest, and it's worth every bruize and every bit of pain that I could
• 4:17
  tell you. And by the way, it comes in handy words. And
• 4:20
  while I could tell you stories about the man I've flipped on the floor,
• 4:25
  you don't want to hear that anyway. So I'm almost in tears to see
• 4:30
  this because the year I left him sorry, the year I went on vacation
• 4:39
  after the before enter the dragon was being distributed and I no, no,
• 4:46
  I'm sorry. After the dragon, right after him it was distributed. I
• 4:50
  took along action. I said, I want to go to see some friends
• 4:56
  in Denmark and Germany and someone and I ended up in Munich and I had
• 5:00
  four days to go back to work. And that's when I fell in love.
• 5:04
  The love my friend who were here and know the sorry, But that's
• 5:08
  when I fell in love at first sight with my husband. When Stephen who
• 5:12
  passed away unfortunately in Hawaii, but his name is Stephan Kaiser, and I
• 5:16
  always I was a player, so they were taking bets in Europe that there's
• 5:23

• 5:27
  felt really in love. And Donna Summer. I don't know if any of
