GossipGabe 333 Posted July 3, 2017 25 minutes ago, BeretBleu said: why ? I think he is healthy and has a good genetics , his parents are still alive !!! Well, not really*. His biological mum was Diana Dill (died aged 92 in 2015), and he previously had stage IV tongue cancer (which might indicate that he inherited some bad genes from her mum, who died from cancer [and was a breast cancer survivor]). That being said, he is past the 5 year mark (in remission) now, so he might be considered cured. *Of course, his stepmum (Kirk's current wife) is still living, but that is totally irrelevant here. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sir Creep 7,070 Posted July 28, 2017 Really surprised there isn't an Our Gang/Little Rascals thread....wasn't that a 'thing' in the U.K. (if not you really missed out), but with only a few surviving, no reason to start one. Leonard Landy, best known for his work as one of the Little Rascals on "Our Gang,” died Wednesday. He was 84. Often recognized for his freckled face and big ears, Landy appeared in 21 “Our Gang” comedy shorts, debuting in “Feed ‘Em and Weep” in 1938 and culminating with “Fightin’ Fools” in 1941.

Sir Creep 7,070 Posted August 2, 2017 James Franco opens up about the moment he realized he was battling depression. In a new interview with OUT magazine, the actor, 39, explained that his career choice in combination with his “very addictive” personality led to feelings of isolation. Only posting as a future heads up, as we've seen some not-so-fabulous endings for a few notables that battled depression. Not sure why but I kinda like Franco and hope he keeps it all in check.
