  1. Iconic 80s Hollywood actress, known for starring roles in Body Heat, Romancing the Stone and Prizzi's Honor, among others. She was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis in the early 90s which caused her immense pain and forced her to use drugs which severely altered her body. These recent photos from April show the long lasting effects. Having recently turned 70, I can see her going at 71 like her Body Heat co-star, William Hurt. In any case, time for a specific thread for this once goddess of the screen.

    I don't see Clinton making it to 85 because of his heart problems, and in fact I am not sure he sees the next DNC in 2028 (assuming there is a DNC in 4 years).  I'd honestly guess that Biden outlives Clinton, but it could be close.  Bush would be a massive favorite over the two of them and also over Trump; all 3 of Clinton, Bush, and Trump were born in the summer of 1946.  As was noted, Bush has good genes and is in reasonably good health and he also clearly looks the best of those 3 (and Biden, duh).  I'd expect him to see his 90's.  

    Trump will easily see off Clinton, Biden and even Bush IMO. Granted after Carter, Clinton is next, but Biden won't be soon after.

     

    Trump could still pass for 68; can see him getting close to 97 in 2043.

    Biden won't reach 2036 (94 !). He'll be lucky enough if he reaches 90 

    Biden sounded and looked much stronger than Clinton today though. Taking age into consideration, I see them both going around the same time.

    I doubt it. They're roughly the same age, but Clinton had a lot of heart issues in his post-presidency before starting his plant-based diet. Bush's parents both lived into their 90s while Clinton's mother died at 70 (his father died in a car crash shortly before Bill's birth). 

    Agreed, but will Bill outlive Biden?

     

    I feel these two could go in very quick succession in 2036. Bush will potentially see 2040.


  5. Bardot's breathing difficulties led to her DL inclusion; Loren's emergency fall led to her inclusion on my shadowlist, but we were both wrong. Delon was the International 60s Icon we should have been looking at, who slipped through our fingers; and now those two ladies will see 2025, probably even 2026 at this rate.

     

    RIP Jef

    Congratulations, The Daredevil. 

    Merci beaucoup.

     

    As I will always be a great Delon fan (think of all those times I have mentioned him on the forum), I feel it is quite fitting for me to have this win.


  7. Chris Rea would be worth some consideration... been awfully quiet in his direction

     

    So many other notable singers/musicians around 70-80 to consider (Jacques Dutronc, Phil Collins, Rod Stewart, Ronnie Wood, Mick Jagger, Eddy Mitchell, Rick Wakeman etc.).

  8. French actor, Hubert Saint-Macary, turning 76 in 2025. His brother, Xavier, another French actor, (who looked healthier than Hubert) died inexplicably from a heart attack at 39, so there may well be family history of heart trouble. Hubert also has not done any acting projects since 2020.

     


  9. 2025 List if he makes it

     

    The only newbies you could argue that are more urgent are Sven-Goran Eriksson and Geoffrey Boycott. Even June Spencer has a better chance of seeing 2026 than Delon IMO.

    If you want any infos about French mysterious celebrities….I am your man or your French Sherlock Holmes !

    This is going back a while, but I am trying to ascertain why French actor, Xavier Saint Macary, died aged only 39 of a heart attack in 1988. Up until the year he died, he was seemingly in good physical shape (like in Quelques Jours Avec Moi (1988)), and I have found nothing to indicate he at any point led an unhealthy lifestyle.

     

    In future, is there a thread to discuss celebrities who mysteriously died at a young age?


  11. Some essential newbies for the 2025 DL... if they make it

     

    Alain Delon: Wheelchair bound, verging towards ninety in 2025, suffering from lymphoma, recovering from a severe stroke from five years ago, his family is breaking apart and he is in the middle of the Delon family fight.

     

    James Earl Jones: Will be 94 in January, has been close to 300 pounds for most of his life, has been out of the spotlight as of late, has had a history of diabetes going back to the 1990s.

     

    June Spencer: Um, she'll be 106 next June.

     

    Eva Marie Saint: Um, she'll be 101 next July.

     

    Teri Garr: Will be 80 this December, has suffered from multiple sclerosis for decades, has been too quiet.

    Will he get to 25 ? 

    Very possibly- I still see Kennedy, Baxter, Chomsky and Le Pen pulling out in front of Jimmy.
