Jesse Lally was a big fan of Anna Nicole Smith.
In fact, The Valley castmember revealed he allegedly hooked up with the late star multiple times after meeting her in 2002 filming a commercial for now-defunct dietary supplement Trimspa.
“For a year or two, yeah,” he told Teddi Mellencamp and Tamra Judge on the June 5 episode of their Two T’s in a Pod podcast. “I would come to L.A. and she’d be in New York every once in a while.”
According to the 43-year-old, he and Smith—who died in 2007 at 39—had immediate chemistry when they met on the Miami set.
“The first layout was an old James Dean and Marilyn Monroe photo where Marilyn’s naked on a mattress and James Dean has no jeans and no shirt on in front of her,” Lally recounted. “I literally walked over with no shirt on, sat down and she’s like, ‘Hi, I’m Anna Nicole.’ And I’m like, ‘Nice to meet you.'”
