Which actress said 'Nothing comes between me and my Calvins'?

Actress and model Brooke Shields said “Nothing comes between me and my Calvins.”

The line came from Calvin Klein’s provocative 1980 advertising campaign for its jeans. Shields was only 15 when she appeared in the campaign, which used suggestive photography and television commercials to present the jeans as youthful, fashionable and daring. The ads generated controversy, but they also made Shields and the Calvin Klein name even more recognizable.

The wording is often shortened or rearranged in retellings. The best-known television version was phrased as a question—“You want to know what comes between me and my Calvins?”—followed by the answer “Nothing.” That is the source of the familiar quotation used in trivia questions.

The campaign helped establish the celebrity-driven fashion advertising model that became especially influential in the 1980s. It also cemented Shields’ public image as both a successful child actress and one of the era’s most visible fashion models.
