In 1989, every girl wanted to be serenaded by John Cusack with a boombox and have sex with him in a station wagon, but Lloyd Dobler only had eyes for Diane Court in Say Anything.
Did Cusack and his co-star, Ione Skye, have feelings for each other in real life? The actress has written a salacious autobiography, Say Everything, and she admits that they had crushes on each other. However, they did not act on it for over a decade, until after her divorce from Beastie Boy’s Adam Horovitz.
She told People that she sent a draft of her book to Cusack. After reading it, he texted her, “You made the experience sound so meh! It wasn’t ‘meh’ for me.”
“I was like, I’m telling a story, and it was more about how all of our chemistry was in our working together and stimulating each other’s minds, not sleeping together!” Skye added. “I felt a little bad, but, oh well.”
This is just one of the love affairs she talks about in her book. She also dated Anthony Keidis when she was 16 and had an abortion. While she was married to Horovitz, she had an affair with Jenny Shimizu when she realized that she was bisexual.
That was then, she has been married to Rocker Ben Lee since December 2008. They welcomed their only child together nine months later.
Those are her love affairs. I wonder if she will talk about her father, singer Donovan, who she has barely had any contact with in her life.
