Just another human being who found mortality to me.
The movers will be along to collect his pedestal shortly and he'll fade into oblivion like all the billions who came before him.
In my opinion, He wasn't very intelligent if he married eight times to the point of bankruptcy!

Thinking with the wrong head again, gents?
I still give the runt props for the babes he's bedded. But they were just after his money.

Nor did mine. She didn't get the kids either, which she would've only used as a free meal ticket.

I'm sure her wusband is still ruing the day.

He started performing with his parents at 2 and regularly at 5. His last performance was in 2014 when he was 93.

That's a 91 year entertainment career span.
I think it turned out to be a steady job.

Considering how fickle the entertainment biz can be, that's says a lot about the guy...
Glutton for punishment maybe?
