Guest Guest Posted April 7, 2014 In many ways Mickey Rooney was the male equivalent of Zsa Zsa Gabor.Married 8 times, born into a showbiz family and an iconic figure in the US. I wouldn't be surprised if they both died around the same time Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrunoBrimley 86 Posted April 7, 2014 Not fully surprised by Joe's passing, but the strange thing is that a local 'All Movie' channel had chosen today to run several of his movies, 1 right after the other from about 8 in the morning on through to just past midnight. When I saw the listings a few days ago I wondered if maybe he had his birthday around now. Guess it was at the other end of the spectrum. Sleep peacefully Mr.Rooney and thanks for the years of fabulous entertainment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
