replies: text: I suppose in the fifties when she cut her hair short to annoy Howard Hughes there's a passing resemblance. I read somewhere that Jean lost the role in Roman Holiday to Audrey Hepburn, and having seen the film sent Hepburn a telegram praising her performance, saying how good she was in the film. That's the kind of person she was by all accounts. Sayerslle (talk) 15:54, 23 January 2010 (UTC)

replies: text: That alone is enough reason to remove it, but in good faith, I've read through a number of sites and news articles about her.  No mention of cancer in any of them.  I think it should be removed. Rossrs (talk) 08:30, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

message: I changed the place of birth from Crouch End to Lower Holloway because I got a copy of her birth certificate and it is for a ' Birth in the Sub-district of Lower Holloway', Hillmarton Road. It says on the wikipedia page that Lower Holloway is an out of date term now, but it doesn't say its considered part of Crouch End now. In any case Lower Holloway is on the certificate.

message: Throughout her life Simmons spoke out publicly about her struggle with addiction.
:If she spoke out about it, there must be reference of which drugs she took, or whether it was just nicotine. I think it would be significant. Valetude (talk) 15:13, 28 August 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: I was also puzzled by this cryptic reference. Either she had addiction problems or she didn't, and if she did then it's notable and requires explanation. I'm going to add a clarify tag. --Ef80 (talk) 11:48, 31 December 2019 (UTC)
