Having a Hollywood mom might not be all it's cracked up to be. In a new tell-all, Shirley MacLaine's daughter says she rarely saw her famous mother and missed her so much that she looked forward to seeing her on an airplane movie screen.

"I would look up, and the in-flight movie would be 'The Turning Point' or another (MacLaine) movie. And it would be a moment that I would find that I could be with her. She was right there. And I would just yearn for her," Sachi Parker, a former flight attendant, told ABC's "20/20."

Parker, who says she now suffers from "abandonment issues," also worked as a maid and a waitress to pay for college, since her mom would charge her interest on loans, she reveals in her new memoir, "Lucky Me: My Life With and Without My Mom, Shirley MacLaine."

MacLaine
assuming you think it's a bad thing to charge your kids interest has plenty of company among Hollywood's "Mommie Dearests." There's Dina Lohan of course, who recently tried to explain why her daughter Lindsay Lohan is so "screwed up" (she says Lindsay witnessed her dad abusing Dina, which her father, Michael Lohan, denies).

Jennifer Aniston didn't feel so "friendly" toward her mom after she talked about her famous daughter on TV and wrote a book about her. Candy Spelling slammed daughter Tori as a "middle-aged reality star." And "Gossip Girl" actress Leighton Meester won a lawsuit against her mom, claiming she sent her little brother money for his medical problems, and her mom spent it on plastic surgery, Botox and hair extensions.

    I'm going out on a limb here, Shirley MacLaine is the worst by far, with skin the texture of tree bark, and a voice more barklike than human.

    Had to pick one but without a doubt the worst ever had to be Joan Crawford, of Mommy Dearest fame.

    They are all bad - but getting your preteen child high is pretty low....that is what happened to Robert Downey Jr too - his father got him hooked on drugs and it nearly destroyed him

    I thought the mom was negligent and it was Barrymore's dad that did the drugs with her.

    To me they were both guilty of bad parenting....but she did turn out okay after a long stretch of trouble.

    They are all bad, but I would say tied for first place would be Shirley McClaine, Jaid Barrymore, Constance Meester and Courtney Love, probably in no apparent order. Those three to me from what I've read are the top worst. If it wasn't for their celebrity, all of these parents would of been turned in to Child Protective Services and reemed. There is another mother that didn't make the list but should of and that is Ethel Kennedy. Heard from all sorts of books and articles, even coming from Rose Kennedy's mouth, that she was a horrible mother.

    Although, Dina is only a celebrity because of her daughter's antics! Shirley was likely always gone on some romantic jaunt with either Robert Mitchum or Danny Kaye. robert mitchum

    Yes, Shirley had an affair with Danny Kaye. She tells a story about flying with him to Paris with Kaye piloting the plane. And let's not forget that Shirley and her husband had a policy of an "open" marriage.

    Shirley didn't see it that way.She also had the hots for Dean Martin around the time they worked together on The Martin and Lewis movie,"Artists and Models." But Dino was too much of a "homebody" for her.And the feeling wasn't mutual on his part.

    LOL!Not for Shirley! He thought she was a cool pal, no romantic urges for her on his part,but he DID have a fling with June Allyson! That gave mea similar reaction to yours about Danny Kaye! june allyson
