This woman’s appearance at the premiere of one of Stallone’s films and her subsequent photos on the Internet sparked a lot of discussion among the public, who follow every move of the film industry.
Her name is Ilona Weldon. She became famous by chance. During a photo shoot with the actors who starred in The Expendables, everyone understood that Ilona had a clear connection to the film, but no one knew what it was.
The film brought together a whole host of celebrities, and some of them, such as Chuck Norris, even came out of well-deserved retirement to star in this masterpiece, which earned its creators more than two hundred million dollars.
By conventional standards, the actors attended the film’s premiere with their families. Stallone himself was no exception; he spent almost the entire evening with his wife and daughters, and Ilona was most often seen in the same company, so everyone eventually decided that she was Sylvester’s mother.
Photos with comments about who was who spread around the world, and when Sylvester’s real mother saw the ‘substitute’ and the woman that journalists had passed off as her, the indignation of 90-year-old Jenny Stallone knew no bounds.
She clearly did not like her ‘rival,’ which Jenny immediately announced loudly and publicly. An investigation began to find out who it really was, and very quickly everyone found out.
Jenny’s ‘understudy’ turned out to be the film producer’s mother, Weldon, who had every right to attend the premiere screening, and had nothing to do with the fact that the paparazzi jumped to conclusions and did not talk to her personally.
But at the screenings of the next episodes of The Expendables, almost everyone recognised Elona, and the confusion helped the public get to know her and no longer confuse her with the mother of another celebrity.
