Vic Flick reportedly dead.

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.

Christ, that really puts Mme Calment's – for lack of a better word: – achievement in perspective. Thanks for that, it's just numbers, but nevertheless feels like an insight to me.

Not my sort of music, so I'm only assuming he was a big deal, electronic DJ producer J Saul Kane being RIPed a lot on the Twitter aka Depth Charge, The Octagon Man, and appropriately enough Grimm Death

Doireann MacDermott Ella Jenkins Madeleine Riffaud Olav Thon Princess Mikasa Victor A. Lundy Graham Bailey June Spencer Eunice Parsons Muazzez İlmiye Çığ Eileen Kramer All gone this month and another 12 days left. Will the Reaper take Jimmy as his big finale?

You're more than welcome to join next years residual game, @Bobytomi! Meanwhile in this years game, we've just had two hits in short succession, after a 7-month dry spell. The deaths of Yuriko and Olav Thon mean sad news for @tracy and @Azrael, but not for the remaining nine players in the game! 9/13 in play Viginia Halas McCaskey (ladyfiona) Gloria Whelan (Bibliogryphon) Rudolph Marcus (Steve) Ida Vitale (MariNisia) Yvonne Choquet-Bruhat (Yvonne) Vincent Ball (Grimgrass) Socorro Ramos (diego) Julie Mandel (ThereWillBeDeaths7) Tom Hughes (Summer in Transylvania) --- 10. Olav Thon (tracy) / 16 November 2024 11. Yuriko, Princess Mikasa (Azrael) / 15 November 2024 12. Márta Peterdy-Wolf (Hell) / 16 April 2024 13. Judith Hemmendinger (WEP) / 24 March 2024

It could have been an exorcism

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.

She got a full obituary here.

Eileen Kramer is a hit for @Yvonne and @Johnnas CONGRATULATIONS!!!

Since there are no obituaries for them, according to the research of the Italian historian in our Messenger conversations we found these names. In some cases I have used Les Gens Du Cinema as the source.
