Don’t forget to “Count the head lice on the highway…” By the by, I know it looks like I bumped this thread, but I swear I didn’t. Someone must have kiboshed a post or two ahead of mine. ---

Tony Danza did audition for a porn, but he didn’t have the minimal acting abilities they sought. ---

the reason it is so believable is that people wanted him to be good in at least one thing. ---

Someone must have kiboshed a post or two ahead of mine. Yeah, there was a spammer, quoted by **astro** , who I banned. Given the sophisticated level of humor on display, though, it would be a shame to lock the thread. ---

Danza never did a porn film. They were probably talking about the pool table scene in the Marilyn Chambers film _Insatiable_. David Morris never actually said “Who’s your daddy?” in that scene, but it pretty well defined the attitude. He was teasing her throughout the scene with “What would your daddy say if he came in here right now?” ---

So we can add Tony Danza to the list of mainstream actors who allegedly did porn: Chuck Connors, Sylvester Stallone, Donna Reed, Betty White. . . Not to mention the rumor about Elton John which was also told, detail-for-detail, about Rod Stewart. ---

Sylvester Stallone did do a porno. It was softcore but it still counts. > **[The Party at Kitty and Stud's](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Party_at_Kitty_and_Stud%27s)** > > The Party at Kitty and Stud's \[a\] is a 1970 American softcore pornographic romance film directed, written and produced by Morton Lewis and starring Sylvester Stallone in his first starring and leading role.
