We remember 150 remarkable actors who, despite their talent and fame, succumbed to the battle against cancer, In today's video; ''150 Actors Who Died Of Cancer''.
It is quite striking that the majority of the deaths were cancers of the throat, lungs and pancreas. Everyone smoked back in the day when actors were required to have deep voices.
I was in the 1979 Columbia Pictures Movie Skatetown USA, along with Patrick Swayze, his first movie. Patrick was a truly amazing human being. It was just a total joy being in the presence this wonderful man. Ron Palillo from Welcome Back Kotter was also in the movie, along with Flip Wilson, Billy Barty, Dorothy Stratton, Don Delueise and others were in the movie. I cherish the memories of being with all these beautiful people. It was a time I will never forget in my life. @ my current age of 76 years now on this day(1-10-2024) I still roller-skate and keep myself in good physical condition and I eat very healthy foods. I get check-ups regularly to make sure all my vitals are where they should be. Thanks and have a good day. God Bless all.
I attempted to cover as many cancer-related deaths among renowned actors as possible, but unfortunately I left some out unintentionally. Thank you for remembering these remarkable actors, Jeanne
@awesome-legacy Not necessarily. My father in law just died from a brain tumor. No drugs, smoking or excessive alcohol. Worked hard, loved by all who knew him. Was just his dna/ body that let him down.
Cancer is something else. I got it prostate cancer. They took out the prostate and I'm still here, guess I'm one of the lucky ones. Got it at 66 and now I'm 77 and still running marathons I wouldn't call it running any more, but I'm still out there. If they can caught it early you have a chance. 95 races to date.
The secret is to not go into denial. And also, to find a doctor who will take your symptoms seriously enough to run the proper tests and find out early enough so you can survive it. Don't put up with some doctor blowing you off or saying it's all in your head, or whatever. That doctor is lazy and doesn't really care. MAKE the doctor seriously look into your symptoms, and if he or she won't, go to someone who will.
I’m 76 and 15 years ago I was diagnosed with prostate cancer. Fortunately it was detected early, now 76 and hike to 3 to 8 miles a day. MEN, get tested NOW and have a long and happy life.
Th love of my life was taken by this utter preventable condition. Lost count of times I tried to get him to go to docs😢 Miss you so much 😢. If you're peeing more than usual please get to GP asap😢😢😢❤❤❤
I'm a Breast Cancer 🎀 survivor, I just had surgery again 2 years ago. Every one is different we have to do that ever we need to do to get through this. And I just lost my dear husband of 53yrs to Cancer 😢😢😢
I am amazed at the amount of pancreatic cancer. It is very difficult to cure. I'm a doctor in Brazil and the best results are coming from the Pancreatic Cancer Center. It is in Lisbon, Portugal. Built by donations from the Champalimaud Foundation.
Ho appena visto il video e in effetti si nota un elevato numero di casi di cancro al pancreas. Pare che le cause di questa tipologia di tumore non siano ben chiare, e purtroppo si stima che sia in aumento, con una percentuale di guarigione purtroppo molto bassa, diversamente da altri tipi di cancro, come quello al seno o alla prostata ad esempio, tra i più diffusi, ma anche tra i più curabili. Speriamo che la ricerca scientifica presto possa arrivare ad una svolta decisiva, ad una cura davvero efficace, troppe persone muoiono ancora per questa brutta malattia.
The cause of pancreatic cancer is still unknown, but some risk factors can make the patient more prone to the disease, such as smoking, obesity, type 2 diabetes and chronic pancreatitis due to alcohol abuse. Mortality is high because it gives few symptoms in the early stages. Only 5% of patients live more than 5 years. In excellent medical centers, mortality improves to 98% of survivors after 5 years of diagnosis.
Don Adams was also the voice behind a childrens show called Inspector Gadget! My oldest sister (who sadly has Alzeimers) would watch Inspector Gadgets as adults. 😅😊❤
Wonderful Freddie. What a relaxing time you’re having drinking your wine and entertaining yourself in your lovely garden 💯percent. You look great and your voice sends me
@use The true God does not take life. HE is love and the giver of life, to us all. We get, old, sick and die because of imperfection and sin. Man was designed by the true GOD to live forever. And this is made possible through HIS Son Christ Jesus. The Bible teaches us how Christ Jesus will accomplish this. For now, put your trust and faith in the true GOD, to help you through, and learn about his purpose for mankind and the earth.
A couple people you left off were Cleavon Little who died from Colon Cancer in 1992, Mike Evans, who died of Throat Cancer in 2006, oh and Elizabeth Montgomery of Colon Cancer.
Mathew 25:44,45 " Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee? Then shall he answer unto them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me."
Solo nuestro Señor sabe de nuestros días en este mundo, algunos estaremos menos días que otros , pero en presencia de nuestro Todopoderoso, viviremos eternamente a su lado
De Forest Kelley died less than 3 months after my mother's death. She died from a stroke, not Cancer, but had a mastectomy and ½ her thyroid gland cut out due to cancer. They were both from Ga. and 79 when they died. My sister's friend used to live in the same neighbourhood he did once.
Yup Brynner’s commercial was bone chilling ~ really. He looked straight into the camera with a piercing stare and a deep voice and said: “ DON’T SMOKE.”
I miss Kirstie Alley as she was the best Saavik on "Star Trek:2". If she had a Colonoscopy-not given into the Scientologists telling her not to have one-she might have discovered her colon cancer earlier and still be alive.
@@johnthomas2877 True, but we can wish the very best for them, and pray for them. That's not our judging their fate, that's being charitable and loving. Of course, it's up to God, who, I believe, is more loving, forgiving and merciful than many of us give Him credit for.
That one sucks! I have it and yes they have made strides in treating it but still something I will die a painful death with and should have never been exposed to since it was 2 nd hand exposure!
Most people nowadays die from cancer, I have no doubt that our food and our lifestyle is to blame. RIP all of you and thanks for the entertainment you have given us throughout the years.
Close, but no cigar. The number one killer in the US is cardiovascular disease. Number two is cancer. Facts matter! www.cdc.gov/nchs/fastats/leading-causes-of-death.htm
WoW I’m a 70yo Disabled Veteran and when I was 19yo I thought I was dead 2 separate times. I’m still here and had Prostate Cancer surgery about 5 years ago and so far so good. In the last 6 months though 3 of my dearest long term friends have passed away and that really hurts. I guess I’m at the stage of life where that happens. I really don’t like this crap . I recently met a young couple who are engaged and the guy asked me what was the Best Time of My Life? I sat silent for a minute or so thinking about his question. I then told him the years that my 2 daughters were born and that 18 years or so were the absolute BEST YEARS OF MY LIFE. I had to work my ass off so my wife could be at home with the girls. Living on Long Island is very expensive. We had 2 cars and a mortgage and I wanted my daughters to go to camp in the summers like I did when I was growing up. I joined a Daddy Daughter Bowling League for a few winters with my youngest daughter. She still talks about it today. She reminded me that I was a few minutes late one evening getting to the bowling alley and I had told her that I went super fast in the Corporate Jet I was flying just to get there. I used over 102% of power on all 3 engines to make it to the bowling alley. Which is a true story.. I wish I could do it all over again but unfortunately that’s not going to happen.
I’m a 78yo who had to reply to your reply. First, thank you for your service. Next, I’ll pray for you to hit the 7year mark in your cancer fight. Thank you for “ working your ass off” so that your wife could be a stay-at-home mom. One of my strongest beliefs is that our most cherished memories about our parents is how much TIME they spent with us, not how much money they spent on us. Finances can vary, but everyone has the same 24 hour allotment every day. How we spend that says a lot about our values. Kids pick up on this as they grow up. It sounds as if your daughters have.
Dear Mark, I am a retired Croatian army veteran, and reading your words makes me shudder at how similar the lives and destinies of us "brothers in arms" are. May God bless you with many more years of health and happiness.
Thank you for your service Sir 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸. I was very happy when my 2 daughters were born in the’70’s. Now they don’t talk to me after i divorced. We did everything possible for them 1,000 times more than their mother. Just can’t figure out kids. At least my Son is tight with myself & wife & we get to see his kids. What I’ve learned in life- the more you do the less you’re appreciated.
I never got to meet any of these great American souls, but their spirit and love will live with us till the end of time in their movies. They were all truly amazing, iconic, talented and beautiful actors and actresses. They made us laugh and gave us happiness with their work. Their loss will affect us deeply. It is sad how cancer is taking so many of us. Cancer is our number one enemy to our lives. We must do more research because all of our lives depend on it; rich and poor, young and old, short and tall, etc. My most sincere condolences to their families if they are watching this. I think with so many of them gone from cancer their families must still be suffering. May God give them strength.
I think you need to have a part 2. There are some noted actors that you didn't name: Merlin Olsen, Kevin Hagen (both of Little House on the Prairie). Gilda Radner, William Hopper, Raymond Burr, Susan Hayward and Richard Jordan. All died of cancer, and are all notable actors.
My partner has skin cancer. When in the past I would hear those words "skin cancer" and think so what it's nothing, but seeing his skin get nasty looking shiny with huge blisters and sores and now his skin is starting to come off in places with him crying from the pain. I hate it that I can't help him. Skin is our largest organ
Ke suis loin, très loin (en France 🇨🇵), et je suis de tout coeur avec vous 💕 Je vous souhaite à tous les 2, encore de bons moments ensemble 😉👍💓🥳 ! Courage 💪 ! Patrick 👋🙋
I don't have to watch this whole video to know that half of these actors didn't have to die, if they just hadn't started smoking! If any product should be prohibited, it should be this one, except the U.S. Govt. gets too many billions of dollars in taxes from it & will never prohibit this 'money maker'!
He was also an angry drunk, beating up many innocent midgets when he was heavily inbreated. Cancer got him before the wrong person would have done him in a drunken outburst.
@@Sam-pt2vv Firstly, this piece is about stars who died from cancer. Secondly, Carson’s drunken bad behavior were all in his younger days, he also stopped drinking completely 23 years before he died.
@dougmcbroom8520 allegedly...he stop drinking. But his drunken behavior would have eventually ruined his liver. Its a miracle he lasted as long as he did.
Anyone said that cancer was an epidemic??? Well, lung cancer makes sense when we were told that smoking was GOOD FOR YOU! And as far as PANCREATIC cancer, which can take you in just a few weeks, well, maybe more work needs to be done to FIND OUT WHAT THE SOURCE OF ALL THE CASES CAN BE. A lot of leukemia as well. We seem to need serious talks about the dangers, and from a young age, especially with shortages of medical staff. And 2 more things would help: stopping ads for products known to be triggers for ilnesses, and investigating the foods we buy, local and foreign imported. The ECONOMY is a great thing, but not useful for those who leave us for the next world, due to that carnage.
BOA NOITE, MUITO OBRIGADO PELA POSTAGENS DE GRANDES CELIBRIDADES , QUANTOS HOMENS MORRERAM DE CÂNCER DE PRÓSTATA SERÁ PORQUÊ NÃO REALIZARAM EXAMES FIQUEI SURPRESO GRAÇAS A DEUS EU REALIZEI MEUS EXAMES ANTES DOS 50 ANOS

Not mentioned was actress Diana Hyland, that finally had a starring role in her first TV series, 'Eight is Enough'. She died of breast cancer after filming only 4 episodes. She was killed off of the show and not replaced with another actress. In the second season, widower Tom Bradford met and married Abby, played by Betty Buckley.
Diana Hyland was the most elegant blonde since Grace Kelly, and I used to see her in "Peyton Place." She played John Travolta's mother in "The Boy In a Bubble" and they got along so well that she bearded for him in a well-publicized romance.
I used to work for Dino Delaurentiis , and I met Dennis Farina in person during the filming of Manhunter, we became friends and kept in touch after the wrapping of Manhunter he became the host of Unsolved Mystery after Robert Stack die. Another actor I met was Pat Hingle during the filming of Stephen King’s Maximum Overdrive.
Yes, I now realize that it may sound illogical, but the video covers information on 150 actors, and it took me a week to gather and process all the data for it. Unfortunately, mistakes like this happen.
A pancreatic cancer diagnosis is nearly always a death sentence. By the time it’s found the cancer is already late stage. We need a lot more research to find a way to catch it sooner
This is very true. I learn almost every other day (so it seems) of someone I know who is diagnosed with Stage 4 pancreatic cancer. Often they experienced no symptom other than suddenly feeling a bit "under the weather", which propelled them to consult a physician.
OOO-OH. So,….Larry Hagman WAS a smoker? I recall the commercial he made, threatening to turn on a miniature fan if you went near him with a cigarette. I just thought he hated cigarette smoke THAT much.
I remember it; that commercial 😢 aired the day after he died. It gave me chills when I first started watching it "I'm Yul Brynner, now that I'm gone.......
My fiance is facing lung cancer stage 4 , when God calls her home,I will b a basket case,I cherish every moment I have with her ,without her ,I will b lost!!
There were a number of celebrities left out. Perhaps a part two video will be done. Also, as some have pointed out there were several inconsistencies. Still, it was put together well enough. I was surprised in learning that some have passed on that I thought were still alive. And I agree, how could you leave out Valerie Harper?
I survived bladder cancer. Prior to surgery a nurse told me that no one ever died from bladder cancer…found out afterwards that many have died as a result of bladder cancer.
I was diagnosed with lung cancer in 2011. They removed half of my left lung. Then I had 12 sessions of Chemotherapy. So knock on wood, I have been Cancer free since.
I Love your video and very interesting indeed! I would make one observation? I'm sorry, but maybe double check your work before releasing it in the future? I saw at least three errors where the written name, age and cancer type were incorrect and put on the wrong person's. Other than that, I really enjoyed the video, and again, I'm sorry to point out these errors, but I would imagine you'd want 100% accuracy for your viewers! Keep up the great work 👍 👏 😊
Tous ces grand(e)s talentueux (ses) artistes resteront à jamais immortelles dans le monde magique du ❤ cinéma respectif pour leur prodigieuse carrière artistique 🎩🌷
I know a lot of people will comment, that a lot of people that had also died of cancer weren't on the list. The unfortunate fact is that a large percentage of all deaths have been caused by some sort of cancer.😢😢😢😢😢
Do you think the industry has made progress in supporting actors' health and well-being, and what more do you believe can be done?
Yes and I think more should be done for us all. I’m a cancer survivor and consider myself lucky.
Awareness is the key. Please get screened!❤❤

No
@@Sunny25611 They can only do so much.
I survived terminal brain cancer given an 18 month life expectancy still surviving nearly 15 years later. Cancer sux 😢

I too had cancer twice. YES THANK GOD.

It is sad how cancer is taking so many of us. Cancer is our number one enemy to our lives. We must do more research because all of our lives depend on it; rich and poor, young and old, short and tall, etc. My most sincere condolences to their families if they are watching this. I think with so many of them gone from cancer their families must still be suffering. May God give them strength.
I think you need to have a part 2. There are some noted actors that you didn't name: Merlin Olsen, Kevin Hagen (both of Little House on the Prairie). Gilda Radner, William Hopper, Raymond Burr, Susan Hayward and Richard Jordan. All died of cancer, and are all notable actors.
I'm on LP pp poo it ok on

I know my favorite silent movie star Buster Keaton was on list. He was very funny actor.
@Hello there, how are you doing this blessed day?
All legendary characters
*RIP all actors*
WELL SAID VENUS IS THAT MOUND OR REALLY HOLLYWOOD - HAHAHAHAHAHA
Rest in peace all of them
Consider yourself lucky if the big C doesn't get you before 70.
At least 80
Evil disease really doesn’t descriminate -gives no symptoms sometimes too late 😢
My partner has skin cancer. When in the past I would hear those words "skin cancer" and think so what it's nothing, but seeing his skin get nasty looking shiny with huge blisters and sores and now his skin is starting to come off in places with him crying from the pain. I hate it that I can't help him. Skin is our largest organ
Ke suis loin, très loin (en France 🇨🇵), et je suis de tout coeur avec vous 💕 Je vous souhaite à tous les 2, encore de bons moments ensemble 😉👍💓🥳 ! Courage 💪 ! Patrick 👋🙋
I always like old acotors & actresses. Thanks for sharing. Lots of love from Bangladesh 🌹❤🇧🇩
So nice of you
I don't have to watch this whole video to know that half of these actors didn't have to die, if they
just hadn't started smoking! If any product should be prohibited, it should be this one, except the
U.S. Govt. gets too many billions of dollars in taxes from it & will never prohibit this 'money maker'!
I concur with your viewpoint that if something poses as much harm to health as smoking does, it should be outright banned
Alot of people died of lung cancer & NEVER SMOKED do your homework !!!!!!!!
If cigarettes are prohibited, they'll sell in the black market. Prohibition is NOT a solution
Johnny Carson, who smoked on-air on the Tonight Show, when he knew he was dying said: “Those goddamn cigarettes!”
He was also an angry drunk, beating up many innocent midgets when he was heavily inbreated. Cancer got him before the wrong person would have done him in a drunken outburst.
@@Sam-pt2vv Firstly, this piece is about stars who died from cancer. Secondly, Carson’s drunken bad behavior were all in his younger days, he also stopped drinking completely 23 years before he died.
@dougmcbroom8520 allegedly...he stop drinking. But his drunken behavior would have eventually ruined his liver. Its a miracle he lasted as long as he did.
@@Sam-pt2vv Again, he didn’t die of liver failure, nor cirrhosis, nor cancer of the liver. He died of emphysema from smoking. End of subject!
I never thought cigarettes made someone look "cool".@@CraigPepe899
How could Harold Lloyd not be on this list?! The greatest silent era comedian!
Harold Lloyd should have been mentioned in this video - my mistake sorry
Anyone said that cancer was an epidemic??? Well, lung cancer makes sense when we were told that smoking was GOOD FOR YOU!
And as far as PANCREATIC cancer, which can take you in just a few weeks, well, maybe more work needs to be done to FIND OUT WHAT THE SOURCE OF ALL THE CASES CAN BE. A lot of leukemia as well. We seem to need serious talks about the dangers, and from a young age, especially with shortages of medical staff. And 2 more things would help: stopping ads for products known to be triggers for ilnesses, and investigating the foods we buy, local and foreign imported. The ECONOMY is a great thing, but not useful for those who leave us for the next world, due to that carnage.
Lung cancer and pancreatic cancer are still the most deathly kind of cancer.
And liver cancer.. People don't live long once they get that.

Not mentioned was actress Diana Hyland, that finally had a starring role in her first TV series, 'Eight is Enough'. She died of breast cancer after filming only 4 episodes. She was killed off of the show and not replaced with another actress. In the second season, widower Tom Bradford met and married Abby, played by Betty Buckley.
Diana Hyland was the most elegant blonde since Grace Kelly, and I used to see her in "Peyton Place." She played John Travolta's mother in "The Boy In a Bubble" and they got along so well that she bearded for him in a well-publicized romance.
YOU MISSED STEVE REEVES, LYMPHOMA, AGE 74, 2000;
RICHARD JAECKEL, MYLENOMA; WILLIAM TALMAN, LUNG CANCER; AND "WILD BILL ELLIOT, LUNG CANCER.
-And to think Steve Reeves was a weight lifter in A-1 shape in his twenties & thirties.
Add in Frank Gerstle one of the finest character actor ever.
Certainly, Gerlad
I used to work for Dino Delaurentiis , and I met Dennis Farina in person during the filming of Manhunter, we became friends and kept in touch after the wrapping of Manhunter he became the host of Unsolved Mystery after Robert Stack die. Another actor I met was Pat Hingle during the filming of Stephen King’s Maximum Overdrive.
Clarify: You said Diane Carrol was the first black woman to star in her own tv show, then later you said the same about Ethel Waters.
Yes, I now realize that it may sound illogical, but the video covers information on 150 actors, and it took me a week to gather and process all the data for it. Unfortunately, mistakes like this happen.
Why is there such an inordinately high number of cases of pancreatic cancer among people in the entertainment industry?
Heavy drinking can contribute to pancreatic cancer
I noticed that too. 👍🏻
Booze
That's exactly what I was going to say. I wonder what the connection is or was.
Not necessarily alcohol. My family member died of pancreatic cancer at 60 years old. He never drank alcohol or smoked. Sometimes it’s pure bad luck
this list is centered on recent deaths. there's 10 times more.
Does it matter? Most ppl may not know older actresses.
A pancreatic cancer diagnosis is nearly always a death sentence. By the time it’s found the cancer is already late stage. We need a lot more research to find a way to catch it sooner
This is very true.
I learn almost every other day (so it seems) of someone I know who is diagnosed with Stage 4 pancreatic cancer. Often they experienced no symptom other than suddenly feeling a bit "under the weather", which propelled them to consult a physician.
Hagman died of throat cancer…
I think you meant Larry HAGMAN.
@@peoplehavetherights stupid spellcheck interference again
OOO-OH. So,….Larry Hagman WAS a smoker? I recall the commercial he made, threatening to turn on a miniature fan if you went near him with a cigarette. I just thought he hated cigarette smoke THAT much.
I remember Yul made a commercial about smoking before he died
So did Steve McQueen appeared in TV advert re smoking
I remember it; that commercial 😢 aired the day after he died. It gave me chills when I first started watching it "I'm Yul Brynner, now that I'm gone.......
My condolences 🙏🙏miss them all very much r.i.p great actir actors god bless them❤🙏🙏Amen
Especially miss Dino.
Your such a beautiful strong women, with a lovely voice we are thinking about you love from Linda.
My fiance is facing lung cancer stage 4 , when God calls her home,I will b a basket case,I cherish every moment I have with her ,without her ,I will b lost!!
Richard Crenna was also a featured actor on The Real McCoys tv series in the 60s
Ii I❤
Richard Crenna also appeared in Rambo films
There were a number of celebrities left out. Perhaps a part two video will be done. Also, as some have pointed out there were several inconsistencies. Still, it was put together well enough. I was surprised in learning that some have passed on that I thought were still alive. And I agree, how could you leave out Valerie Harper?
Or Gilda Radner?
Dziękuję za materiał
Dziękuję za twoje podziękowania
All there wealth couldn't save them
Takes my mind and memories back to the days of the "real great movies and actors/actresses. The movies live on!!!
There are so many more ACTORS who died from cancer
love watching these
Suzanne Somers - you have the details for Anthony Quinn against her picture
I apologize for the mistake
I see. At least most people know who she is. She died in 2023
@@jamesharris-io3kzI didn't know she died; but I don't watch TV or especially the news anymore.
I survived bladder cancer. Prior to surgery a nurse told me that no one ever died from bladder cancer…found out afterwards that many have died as a result of bladder cancer.
I think you mistaken Anthony Quinn and Suzanne Somers.
@Hello there, how are you doing this blessed day?
Judy Tenuta was born in 1949.
Absolutely, Casay, you've got it right. Judy was born on November 7, 1949. My mistake - appreciate the correction, thank you.
I will most likely die of cancer or diabetes. Cause I am a cancer survivor!!
You are a fighter if you have conquered your illness, and fighters never give up.
I was diagnosed with lung cancer in 2011. They removed half of my left lung. Then I had 12 sessions of Chemotherapy. So knock on wood, I have been Cancer free since.
I grew up watching these actors ! So b sad 😢
Valerie Harper
I have two sisters who are survived cancer
May God continue to bless them.
Gloria Stuart and Milton Berle also died of cancer.
Andrea Lego. died September 29,2021 age 68 of cancer. She was my wife. 😢 Her cancer was female related in addition to her kidneys.
J’adore ce que vous faites et vous le faites si bien 🇨🇦🙏
Isee /seen so many actors ,I so adore all the talent!
All risen in glory and resting in peace ✌🏿💕
Mind explaining how you seem to think you know their "resting in peace?"
Not necessarily. Some of them might be in hell Or Purgatory.
No such places.@@glennso47

I Love your video and very interesting indeed! I would make one observation? I'm sorry, but maybe double check your work before releasing it in the future? I saw at least three errors where the written name, age and cancer type were incorrect and put on the wrong person's. Other than that, I really enjoyed the video, and again, I'm sorry to point out these errors, but I would imagine you'd want 100% accuracy for your viewers! Keep up the great work 👍 👏 😊
I have enjoyed every movie that I’ve see you in, . I’am sure if you wear still around you would have made many more movies for us to enjoy. R.I.P.
SO MANY OF MY FRIENDS DIED FROM CANCER
I have lost friends or my Grandad died of Cancer and my dad has prostate cancer Now and it brings me to tears when I hear the word Cancer
Que loucura meu Deus tantos Atores Magnificos com cancer que pena😢😢😢😢😢😢😢 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
My mum had cancer twice
First in 1998 breast cancer
Then 5 years ago ovarian cancer
She died 3 months after getting her cancer diagnosis
It was stomach cancer and not lung cancer that eventually killed John Wayne.
Tous ces grand(e)s talentueux (ses) artistes resteront à jamais immortelles dans le monde magique du ❤ cinéma respectif pour leur prodigieuse carrière artistique 🎩🌷
I know a lot of people will comment, that a lot of people that had also died of cancer weren't on the list. The unfortunate fact is that a large percentage of all deaths have been caused by some sort of cancer.😢😢😢😢😢
Unfortunately, i remember them all when young an at their prime; loved them all an they, like many other legends after them, will b missed sorely
All the projects Andy Whitfield could have done. So much passion, so much talent.
