  • Iconic actress, Audrey Hepburn, has died. She was 63 years old.
    Audrey Hepburn (born Audrey Kathleen Ruston; 4 May 1929 - 20 January 1993) was a British actress and humanitarian. Recognized as a film and fashion icon, she was ranked by the American Film Institute as the third-greatest female screen legend in Golden Age Hollywood, and was inducted into the International Best Dressed List Hall of Fame.
    Born in Ixelles, Brussels, Hepburn spent parts of her childhood in Belgium, England, and the Netherlands. She studied ballet with Sonia Gaskell in Amsterdam beginning in 1945 and with Marie Rambert in London starting in 1948. She began performing as a chorus girl in West End musical theatre productions and then had minor appearances in several films. Hepburn starred in the 1951 Broadway play Gigi after being spotted by French novelist Colette, on whose work the play was based.
    She rose to stardom in the romantic comedy Roman Holiday (1953), alongside Gregory Peck, for which she was the first actress to win an Oscar, a Golden Globe Award, and a BAFTA Award for a single performance. That same year Hepburn won a Tony Award for Best Lead Actress in a Play for her performance in Ondine. She went on to star in a number of successful films, such as: Sabrina (1954), in which Humphrey Bogart and William Holden compete for her affection; Funny Face (1957) a musical in which she sang her own song parts; the drama The Nun's Story (1959); the romantic comedy Breakfast at Tiffany's (1961); the thriller-romance Charade (1963), opposite Cary Grant; and the musical My Fair Lady (1964), which won the Academy Award and BAFTA for Best Picture. In 1967 she starred in the thriller Wait Until Dark receiving Academy Award, Golden Globe and BAFTA nominations.

    As Far As I'm Concerned, Audrey Hepburn Was The Loveliest And Classiest Woman To Ever Walk Gods Green Earth...And A Generous And Compassionate Human Being...Her Passing Was A Sad Day Indeed.

    Bill Clinton's inauguration was that same day and it got most of the news coverage, alas, so Audrey Hepburn's death didn't get nearly the amount of coverage that it should have.

      It was like Michael Jackson getting most attention than Farrah Fawcett. Both die at the same day.

    Julie Andrews was literally popular as much as Shelley Duvall and Carol Burnett
