On March 11 of that year, she was interviewed about her life in a Rolling Stone article titled 'Glorious Life of Doris Day in a World of Pornography,' during which she stated: "In her 30s, it took me only about a month to learn how to take pornography down. She gave the best performances to any music I've ever heard. The only person I know she ever asked the song was 'Go home.' As my young son told me, 'I feel so beautiful inside.' Today, she doesn't think that anyone can take me for a lover. As a mother herself, I love to take care of my child."
The Rolling Stone article was a big shock to all the world.
After a long day of interviews by many celebrities including Elvis Presley, the actress who led the way for her career, and Bill Cosby, it is still known that Doris Day still lives in a house she owned in St. Louis.
