Ahh sad, she played Dora's Mother in my favourite film Life is Beautiful alongside Roberto and Nicoletta.

These days I avoid posting deaths of local celebrities that haven't been mentioned on the forums before, but I'll make an exception here:

 

Heikki Silvennoinen, Finnish comedian, musician and actor has died at 70 from a rare blood disease. I'm quite shocked, he's an absolute A-lister and household name in the country, best known from the Kummeli comedies: 

 

Edit: Was just talking with a friend. Earlier today he'd heard it from the radio and mentioned it to a staff member at a store he goes to a lot. Staff member went to mention it to other members of staff and suddenly he realized pretty much everyone around is talking about it and processing it. Shows how big he was here.

Yue opera actress Wang Wenjuan has died at 95. Likely the biggest name of old generation Yue opera. Regarding decrepit cinema actors and actress from China, here's a quick list (only actresses with a wiki page in English):

 

1)Qin Yi (1922): the last superstar of the 50s. Suffering from thyroid cancer, heart failure and wheelchair bound.

2)Wei Wei (1922): at the zenith of her career in 1948, now frail and confined to a wheelchair.

3)Tian Hua (1928): old and frail actress who recently lost husband and son due to the cancer.

4)Wang Xiaotang (1934): already a new generation actress, Golden Rooster Award winner, not so seen in public these days.

5)Xie Fang (1935): legendary pre-Cultural Revolution actress who is enjoying good health in her old age.

Xie Fang dead at 89.

Maïté, A-List  chief really popular in the 80's for her cooking TV show reportedly dead at 86. Another one who was going to appear in our French common list for 2026. All our new candidates are dropping like flies…

I believe her TV show with the other fat French lady was the basis for The Two Fat Ladies in the UK.
