We love to watch women fight. Whether a slap in the face on shows like Dynasty and Real Housewives or Uma Thurman and Lucy Lui in Kill Bill, women in combat have fascinated us for decades. But in the movies at least, many of these on screen feuds got their start from real life feuds, some that lasted 50 or 60 years. Today we get to the bottom of these Hollywood fights, feuds, squabbles, tiffs, brawls and scuffles that not only defined many women’s careers but also fueled them and sometimes destroyed them. Today, Slate plays referee in the fight between Woman vs Woman.
