"She wanted to be known as an international sex symbol, and she was going to do everything to keep that title," author Michael Gregg Michaud told Fox News Digital earlier this year. "She presented herself in a very sexy way. She surrounded herself with very sexy men."

Michaud released a book about the classic Hollywood star, "Mae West and Her Adonises," in March.
"This is my third book about Mae West," Michaud explained. "She had a very long and productive life. There are several biographies already written about her, but I wanted to focus on this one aspect of her life, which has never been fully explored before.
"I wanted to dig deep into her nightclub acts and how they were perceived by the public. Yes, she was making movies, but she wanted to hit the road. And she never let her age limit her in how she presented herself. She didn’t think there was anything old about a sexy woman."

In 2019, fans had the opportunity to bid for the actress’ prized possessions, including her silk gowns and embellished tiaras and headpieces, along with film scripts and fan letters, according to Julien’s Auctions.
