For some time she had health problems and was even hospitalized but was soon discharged Edited July 11, 2020 by Death Impends Thread merged into foreign personalities on account of Menezes's lack of fame, and Menezes's name inserted into the post so it's known who the post is about.

Joey Russ 7,266 Posted July 11, 2020 There’s definitely a debate between folk about who is deathlisty and who isn’t, and I’m one of the ones with a much more lenient view. After looking her up though, I can confidently say this person isn’t deathlisty at all. I mean, Fergie fucking Frederiksen is probably more notable than her. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There has always been a rumor, that her letter "I cannot forsake my principles" has been manipulated by Gorbachev's chief ideologe Yegor Ligachev, before being published. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nina_Andreyeva N.B: Ligachev himself is still alive & will celebrate his 100th. birthday in November. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lost a shocking amount of weight. There's a Eurovision connection too - he should have represented Germany in 1976 but the song had previously been released, so we got the Siegel-fest 'Sing Sang Song' by the Les Humphries Singers instead. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
