Lafaucheuse

Great euphamism

Posted it in the foreign thread, completely unexpected and shocking, loving man and great actor

Niels Arestrup, one of the most acclaimed french actor dead at 75. Won 3 cesar of best supporting actor, was one of Audiard’s favorite actor. A rather quiet figure on the public scene but with an impressive talent and huge fame.

Alvaro Noboa

YES ! I couldn't remember the name but this is him, thanks a lot !! don't know why this popped in my head all of a sudden though…

trying to find the name of those famous siblings who all got to extreme age (was one of them a supercentenarian, or two ?). Does someone have a clue ? I'm not sure but I feel like the most famous of them may have been on the list a few years back… Or at least was quite famous enough

Brigitte Fontaine était à la une de Télérama il y a quelques semaines, une grande interview (que je n'ai pas encore lu) et pas mal de photos récentes où elle fait bien son âge et est toujours appuyé à quelque chose comme si elle avait du mal à tenir debout. Je la vois mal arriver à 90 personnellement… Quant à Line Renaud, ces dernières photos Insta la montre effectivement plus affaiblis qu'avant, je pensais qu'elle arriverait facilement à 100 ans mais maintenant ca me semble un peu compliqué…

André Lajoinie dead at 94. +16 for my french list.

I’ll join. Can you give the previous hit for every winner of this Game ?

For sure : Frankie Valli Joel Grey (looked real frail in last apperances, wouldn’t bet on him making it to 2026) John Williams Lee Grant James Ivory Yayoi Kusama (weelchairbound if I remember correctly but still active..) King Salman Tippi Hedren Isabel Peron (did look frail earlier this year and too many times overlooked, meets the fame criteria) Don King Amartya Sen and for god’s sake : EVA MARIE SAINT Maybe : Sophie Kinsella (does she meet the fame criteria ? Never heard of her before this diagnosis and those young terminally ill people are not my personal cup of tea for the official DL, doesn’t seem like the kind to be picked either) George Soros Berry Gordy/ Clive Davis Gabriel Matzneff (maybe too french-centered ? Paedo and author 89 next year, and I’m sure I saw somewhere that he had terminal cancer, maybe some French alumni can help there ?)

it has been one of the most camp move of French politic life of the last 40 years, a real scandal at the time and is always regularly discussed nowadays, I suggest you search for the pictures, they're real fun.

Ran into this other French deahtlist a few years ago. It's the first year they did this good, I suggested a few names to them last year which were included. Interestingly enough, they got Patrice Lafont right even though he died of a sudden heart attack without prior health scare. Wonder if we might get in touch with them for a crossover…

Ahah doesn’t look that old right ? Anyway 103, my bad*

Edgar Morin… not dead, looking fantastic (if not a little thinner and speaking slower ?) on live TV a week or two ago at 193
