OT: Debbie Reynolds (Carrie Fisher's mom) dead

Submitted by Go Blue Eyes on December 28th, 2016 at 8:53 PM

2016's death march is still taking them right up until the end. Apparently the death of her daughter was too much and now Debbie Reynolds has died. Being a huge Sinatra fan I loved her in "The Tender Trap."

Unfortunately, yes. LA Times, Drudge, TMZ, etc. all reporting it.

Wow! Carrie Fisher was born in 1956. How old is her mother? Was she trying to live longer than Sinatra? Can someone put up a link? RIP Ladies, so much for living as old as your parents did. Carrie died way too young.

Debbie was 19 when she filmed "Singing in the Rain", just as Carrie was for "Star Wars". Remarkable women. :-(

different era and different style of entertainment, but Debbie Reynolds was one of the greatest entertainers of all time---live and on celluloid. And she was largely before my time.

In a span of 24-plus hours, Todd Fisher lost his sister and mother and Billie Lourd lost her mother and grandmother. No one deserves to go through such an emotional gauntlet. Just awful.

I'm pretty sure it's just that we are passing into the era when the generation that coincided with an explosion in American media is reaching an age of greater risk of death. We can probably expect this many celebrity deaths each year in the years to come.

With many of them hastened by the lifestyles that the celebs began to live starting in the 60s. Alcohol was always a problem but that began the era of coke, heroin (Ms Fisher) and other harder drugs, including PEDs in atheletes and actors. Cause vs coincidence TBD.

And yet the Kardashians continue to roam and plague this Earth......

But yeesh what an awful 48 hours. Hard not to think that she died of a broken heart. No parent should ever outlive their child.

The only way you can love the Kardashians is in the same way that you love the cast from the Jersey Shore: you enjoy watching them make asses of themselves.

There's hardly any other redeeming qualities about any of them.

I want to say somebody mentioned that it must be terrible for her mom that her daughter just died, etc. I questioned to myself if Carrie Fisher's mom was actually still alive. I suppose I got my answer.

Also, here we go again with the "Fuck 2016" crowd. Poor unsuspecting bastards.

You do realize they can care about both right? If someone cares about a celebrity death they can still care about their neighbor, and even still care more about their neighbor than the celebrity.

why can't people grieve for both? I lost a close family member this year and was devestated. does that exclude me from also feeling loss of some of the Hollywood stars who helped shape my formative years?
