The Blue Lagoon star was in attendance at the special screening of The Andy Warhol Diaries, held at The Whitney Museum of American Art. 

It would be no surprise to see Brooke featured in the new Netflix documentary, as she was friends with the legendary artist Andy Warhol.

After being brought into the spotlight as a child star – following her star turn in 1978’s Pretty Baby – Shields found herself rubbing shoulders with the likes of Warhol at Studio 54.

However, she previously revealed that she managed to maintain her innocence during those wild times in the late 70s and early 80s. 

‘I would get invited to Studio 54, but I’d leave before all the craziness and drugs happened. I never saw the bag passed around,’ she insisted in 2013 of her days at the infamous New York City nightclub. 

‘Andy Warhol and all those guys were very sweet to me. There was something about me that they wanted to protect and uphold.’

The Andy Warhol Diaries director Andrew Rossi revealed he used artificial intelligence to allow the late pop art superstar to narrate parts of his six-part Netflix docuseries.

In addition to interviews with the late icon’s friends and colleagues, voice synthesizing technology will allow Warhol to perform ‘readings from titular diaries,’ according to Entertainment Weekly.

Rossi revealed he worked with Resemble AI to re-create a text-to-speech algorithm that would bring his gentle cadence and Pittsburgh accent back to life.

The Emmy-nominated filmmaker then had Bill Irwin record the lines, which were fused with the digital voice to match Warhol’s as close as possible.

‘Andy Warhol was famously guarded about his personal thoughts and opinions,’ Rossi told the outlet.

He continued: ‘That’s one reason his Diaries are such a rare and fascinating window; he could be incredibly raw and emotional as he talked to his diarist over the phone. To fully appreciate the radical vulnerability that Andy shares in the Diaries, I felt that we needed to hear the words in Andy’s own voice.’

Fans of the artist, including John Waters and Rob Lowe, are also slated to speak about their admiration of his work in the limited series, executive produced by Ryan Murphy.

Unlike most documentaries based on Warhol that focus on his art, Rossi said he explores his subject’s ‘romantic longings and spiritual side as a living, breathing gay man.’

‘I wanted to weave together Andy’s words and images to explore how that emotional life is reflected in the artworks he created during his last decade,’ the director said of his vision. 

Rossi continued: ‘He made some of the strongest images of his career then, yet he was seen by many as a has-been, so that work is often ignored.’ 

The producer, known for directing documentaries such as Page One: Inside the New York Times, also found ‘never before seen archival material that provides evidence of Andy’s intimate and sometimes secret relationships.’ 

He will be sharing the unearthed letters, poetry, other media that ‘had not been restored or widely viewed until now.’
