OT - Still kicking in their 90’s

Gams · 08-09-21, 09:18 AM

The Rest In Peace thread is so long and updated so frequently that I wanted to look for some good news. These celebs are all 90 or older and doing okay as far as I know. Even Tony Bennett, who has Alzheimer’s, is doing well right now.

Betty White - 99
Bob Barker - 97
Harry Belafonte - 94
Sidney Poitier - 94
Tony Bennett - 95
Mel Brooks - 95
Angela Lansbury - 95
Larry Storch - 98
Dick Van Dyke - 95
Eva Marie Saint - 97
Robert Duvall - 90
Gene Hackman - 91
Tippi Hedren - 91
James Earl Jones - 90
Bud Grant - 94 (Bud walked away uninjured from a plane crash when he was 88!)
Bob Newhart - 91

Great list! Long live Betty! Sidney is one of my all-time favorite actors. There is a website that tracks who's alive and who has passed on:

I met Gene Hackman and Angela Lansbury. I used to do background acting in films and TV shows many years ago. Two very gracious and classy people. Not too stuck up to chat with a lowly extra.

Marsha Hunt - 103 (will be 104 in October)
Janis Paige - 98 (will be 99 in September)
Joanne Woodward - 91 (although her Alzheimer's is pretty bad, I have read)

They are a testimony that your wealth is your health.

I’m glad to hear Gene Hackman and Angela Lansbury were nice. They seem
like they would be, but you never know. I’ve met some celebrities that I was certain would be friendly and they turned out to be big butts.

I just saw an excellent 2021 WWII documentary with Janis Paige as an interviewee:

Journey to Royal: A WWII Rescue Mission

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3195192/

Earl Holliman (92) also appeared.

And Angie Dickinson will be 90 next month. How is this possible???

One can say that about some fitness instructors, too!
