Before she made her debut on screen, she was involved in modeling. During a session for Elle magazine, she caught the eye of reporter and aspiring director Roger Vadim. Although she was only 14 years old, she showed off her charms without embarrassment, and it was her manner that caught his attention. – Nudity meant no more to her than a smile or the color of a flower – about her.
When they started dating, Brigitte Bardot was 14 years old. Their joint film revolutionized cinema and made her a star
The secret didn’t last long, however, as Bardot left school to meet the director. Initially, her conservative parents were against her relationship with a man 6 years her senior, but when she threatened to take her own life, they allowed her to continue their relationship. However, they set a condition – when he reaches the age of majority, they will get married. This way, 18-year-old Brigitte married Vadim, becoming not only his wife, but also his muse. It was at his persuasion that she abandoned ballet, which she had trained since childhood, dyed her hair blonde and devoted herself fully to acting.
Without a doubt, the biggest breakthrough in Bardot’s career was her husband’s directorial debut “And God Created Woman”, which premiered on November 28, 1956. In it, she played the role of the playful Juliete Hardy, causing a spectacular hit among viewers and critics. The scene of her sensual dance on the table went down in the history of cinema, which became a symbol of a woman liberated from patriarchy and earned her the name of a real sex bomb.
On the set of her husband’s film, she had an affair with another actor. This ended her marriage
Ironically, the revolutionary role that ultimately opened the door to Bardot’s great career was the beginning of the end of her marriage. On the set, she got into a relationship with Jean-Louis Trintignat, who played her film partner. – I never felt like an actress, but when I was shooting a film, I tried to get into the skin of the character. To such an extent that I fell in love with my partners, she said honestly years later.
Head over heels in love with a cinema lover, she decided to divorce her husband, but Vadim didn’t want to hear about it. Apparently he threatened that if she left him, he would take his own life, but Brigitte was adamant. She finally got her way and their relationship officially became history in 1957. However, it was not the end of their friendship, because they decided to remain friends. The relationship with Trintignat also did not stand the test of time, due to his morbid jealousy.
