Life of Jayne Mansfield
She was a stereotype, almost a caricature, of
the dumb blond: bigger, blonder, dumber, more publicity-conscious than any who
had gone before.
The story goes that 20th Century-Fox hired her
in the first place to use her as a bargaining point with Monroe, who was
causing contract trouble. Her 10 or 12 years of fame were lived in Monroe
But she wasn't really very good as an actress.
She didn't have the comic timing and the natural warmth of Monroe
By the early 1960s, Jayne Mansfield was at the
peak of her fame and the low point of her acting career. Twentieth Century-Fox
released her from her contract in 1960, and her roles became more and more
built around her simple presence. She didn't have to act. She only had to stand
there.
Finally, in “Promises, Promises.” she did what no Hollywood actress ever does except in desperation:

Jayne Mansfield is killed instantly on this day in 1967 when the car in which she is riding strikes the rear of a trailer truck on Interstate-90 east of New Orleans, Louisiana.
Mansfield had been on her way to New Orleans from Biloxi, Mississippi, where she had been performing a standing engagement at a local nightclub; she had a television appearance scheduled the following day. Ronald B. Harrison, a driver for the Gus Stevens Dinner Club, was driving Mansfield and her lawyer and companion, Samuel S. Brody, along with three of Mansfield’s children with her ex-husband Mickey Hargitay, in Stevens’ 1966 Buick Electra. On a dark stretch of road, just as the truck was approaching a machine emitting a thick white fog used to spray mosquitoes (which may have obscured it from Harrison’s view), the Electra hit the trailer-truck from behind. Mansfield, Harrison and Brody were all killed in the accident. Eight-year-old Mickey, six-year-old Zoltan and three-year-old Marie, or Mariska, had apparently been sleeping on the rear seat; they were injured but survived.
