Dolph Lundgren was tired from group sex

Actor Dolph Lundgren, best known for playing the Russian giant Ivan Drago, who fought in the ring with Rocky Balboa in Rocky IV (1985), says that he used to have group sex with singer and supermodel Grace Jones and “four or five” other women, but that it wasn’t always a “good thing” because it left him too tired for work.

“That happened on occasions, with or without Grace. Sometimes, she’d bring a girlfriend home and then I’d have to get up for work the next day and that kind of thing. I’d say at the most it was four or five girls, perhaps,” Lundgren tells thesun.co.uk.

He adds, “It’s great in theory but when you have to get up and fight Sylvester Stallone (the star of the Rocky films) in the morning, it’s not such a good thing.”

Lundgren, now 60, met Jones, now 70, when he was hired as her bodyguard, but once he found fame after playing Drago, their relationship fizzled out. He says, “I literally walked into the theatre (for the movie premiere) as her boyfriend, with people trying to shoo me out of the way to take pictures of her; and, 90 minutes later, when I walked out, people were trying to take pictures of me, instead. It was one of those things that happens once in a while in Hollywood, somebody totally unknown becomes famous overnight. Other women showed up, she got jealous and she couldn’t handle it... Within six months, the relationship was over.”
