I tried and failed to get something meaningful out of it lately - hadn't seen the latest entry though. She is only buying time, the cancer is in her bones. But yes, I agree that it's progressing faster than expected. But then I was sure she'll die this year - the obit is the question. BBC or Guardian. Well the BBC put her on their 100 women of the year list and she got an article in November so I would say BBC QO is highly likely. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-37861457 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It turns out the forum upgrade screwed the old version (some of the formating was lost such as some strike-throughs for hits. Also, it seems we can't easily do nested quoting now.) With that in mind, I have just copied the list out and started it afresh, removing all the old hits and adding the new names that have been suggested recently. Here we go again...

Knew her much better as a singer. She is always ascribed as a schlager-singer, but most of her songs are more sophisticated than the usual German schlager songs from that time. A very beautiful woman even in her 60s and 70s by the way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Creep 7,068 Posted May 5, 2017 Popular Kannada TV actor Rekha Sindhu died in a car accident while travelling in Vellore district of Tamil Nadu on May 5. The incident occurred on the Chennai-Bangalore highway. Rekha Sindhu was on her way from Chennai to Bengaluru along with three other people. Another Kannada and Tamil actor Rekha Krishnappa was mistaken for Rekha Sindhu. Krishnappa put a video on her Facebook page to clarify the issue. Misidentifying bodies is commonplace when the vehicle comes to a sudden stop in THIS fashion. SC 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
