“Pass The Bowl” is VH1’s ongoing interview series, wherein celebrities contribute questions to our bowl and fellow celebs later draw a question.

Jeremy Allen White: What was the first film you remember ever seeing? 

Jackie Collins: Well this is very interesting maybe because I’m a writer.  My mother took me to see a film when I was five years old that starred Bob Hope.  There was a big bookcase in the film, and people came out of the bookcase and dragged you into secret passages.  I could never go into a room with a bookcase after that, so I think had to become a writer to get over my fear of books.  ‘Cat and the Canary,’ that’s what it was called. It was creepy. I was terrified for years, but you know what?  It paid off in the end.

Jackie Collins’ Question For The Bowl: Who’s the sexiest guy in Hollywood?
