Goodness Had Nothing to Do with It is a parody of the interview show Person to Person (1953). Mae West has written her autobiography, “Goodness Had Nothing to Do with It“. In her interview, she tells about the three men she intentionally left out of her autobiography: Cauliflower McPugg, San Fernando Red, and Clem Kadiddlehopper.
