Gossip Friday: Party of One
From December 1949:
You can believe this or not—but we actually saw Clark Gable lunching alone in the MGM commissary—and all around him pretty gals who would have been delighted to keep him company. There was quite a glamour gang scattered around at the various tables—the three Taylors, Elizabeth, Bob and Don, handsome Barry Sullivan, Mark Stevens, Peter Lawford, Marilyn Maxwell, Bob Walker—looking fit as a fiddle—and the most beautiful girl in the room, Arlene Dahl, all excited about getting the lead in the Western “Outriders.”

This one made me sad. Like his heyday was over and there he is all alone while the new crop of stars takes over the commissary.

I’m afraid I have to agree with you. But I also have to say of all the newest “crop of star” listed here, Clark reigns far above them and is still The King!

Sometimes it’s lonely at the top. He knew he was the king so he was cool with eating alone.

He looks pretty happy to me!
