    Line Renaud, 96, WAS a collaborator of Piaf's though. She co-starred opposite Piaf in the movie Boum sur Paris (1953, wiki), so she counts. She also co-starred with Piaf in the 1951 movie Paris Still Sings (wiki). Brigitte Bardot, 90, co-starred with Piaf in Royal Affairs in Versailles (1954, wiki). Piaf also starred in an obscure Mexican film in 1958 called Música de siempre (wiki). At least 2 of her co-stars are still alive from that flick – American actress Tongolele, 92, and Mexican Golden Age child actress Angélica María, 80. Mike Stoller, 91, co-wrote the music for her famous song "L'Homme à la moto", but as she covered the song rather than originally record, it's doubtful as to whether they actually collaborated. In terms of people who duetted with Piaf, I think they're all dead.

    I don't mind this. Corgis are generally cute, and much less likely to want to eat me or otherwise attack me than much larger dogs.

    This was already the subject of a conversation between @YoungWillz and me, he told me that it seems that if you enter anonymous mode the visit is not counted on this date

    My advice is start making a spreadsheet of those born between 1925-1934. That way you can start posting in the new thread from 1st January 2025 (be quick because people...aka me post from 00.01)

    Yuriko, Princess Mikasa (1923-2024) "Mikasa es Tukasa" (Popular Spanish saying) "Hey, this is not Jean Marie Le Pen!" (The Reaper realizes he has done wrong again) "Only eight months in hospital....pah, amateur" (King Jimmy The Humongous) Age at death: 101 Known health issues: Fitted with a pacemaker in 1999, heart failure and pneumonia in 2020, hospitalised in 2021 due to severe arrhythmia, hospitalised with COVID in 2022. Hospitalised with stroke and aspiration pneumonia in March 2024, in ICU with pneumonia in August 2024, multiple organ failure in November 2024. Cause of death: Multiple organ failure, as the real firebrand Immortal she was. Alignment: Hmmmm... did she actually do something beside being in the Imperial family? Well, yes, she survived three of her children, and her husband Prince Takahito, who prematurely died in 2016 at 100, while she was already in worse health than him.

    He's just a random politician with no real health updates since February 2023. Sounds like an easy drop.

    American composer George Wilkins has died aged 90. Surprised the guy was not a recognised Disney Legend - if you have ever been to Disney World, particularly Epcot, his work is everywhere.

    Why not? A-list and the future Queen of Norway if she outlives Harald, terminally ill for the last six years, health updates becoming much more frequent, Epstein connection that we might hear about later, crazy cocaine addict son. Very underrated name here. The "fits perfectly well in another thread" argument could be used for nearly all of the individual threads on this site.
