Had her in my 2016 death pool.

at least the last year or so she got a big love fest for her work
It's always nice when an artist people love gets a late lovefest BEFORE they die



yes its nice her family forced an 88 year old lady to put out a lame sequel so they could get a fat inheritance… very reminiscent situation to Deep Throat…


but for 1 year she was being talked about how great she was

yes the second part is kinda lame, but I think she was able to bask in the glow of how much people liked TKAM
I got to imagine that was gratifying

I refused to read it because it was pretty obvious she was not aware what was going on and being manipulated by her agent.

I'm sure your indignation made her final days a bit more bearable.

No, but my indignation kept at least a few additional dollars from the people behind this unseemliness.

Mozart, Salma Hayek's dog
http://www.nbcnews.com/pop-culture/celebrity/salma-hayek-says-her-dog-was-fatally-shot-her-washington-n527176
Salma Hayek says her beloved pet dog was fatally shot on her ranch, and authorities are looking for suspects.

Mozart, a 9-year-old dog who the actress "personally delivered out of his mother's womb," was found dead on the "Frida" star's ranch last Friday with a bullet near his heart, Hayek wrote on her Instagram page.

"I am hoping that the Washington State authorities do justice to this wonderful dog whom in 9 years never bit or attacked anyone," Hayek wrote. "He loved his territory and never strayed away…he was the most loving and loyal companion. He didn't deserve a slow and painful death."


(before anybody says anything about me posting about a celebrity's dog, need I remind you of the oh so respectful title of the thread, "Dropping Like Flies")

^ agreed - to me, these kind of stories are more painful than most things i see or hear in the news.
 
  …and dog commercials can really mess me up.

George Kennedy, the brawny, Oscar-winning character actor known for playing cops, soldiers and blue-collar authority figures in such films as "Cool Hand Luke," "Airport" and the "Naked Gun" films, has died. He was 91.
