Lafaucheuse 4,015 Posted March 19, 2022 Honestly, Delon has been a drama queen for years, always saying he has not much long to live despite being completely fine : when Belmondo died last year, he said that he has just days left and that he would follow his friend. Then he showed up for Belmondo’s funeral and looked quite good, gave interview etc… it’s been at least 10 years since he first said he would die soon, I’ll be completely shocked if ever he tries to resort to euthanasia 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Immortal 632 Posted March 21, 2022 The whole euthanasia thing kind of brings me to a bit of a debate here, if a celebrity announces that they will undergo euthanasia/assisted suicide on a certain date (let's say Alain Delon announces he goes for euthanasia on January 10th, 2023), is it illegal to pick that celebrity for a dead pool? I'm sure expert DeathListers have some kind of policy on this but as a rookie DeathLister I would like to know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DDP has a rule for 'death row' inmates that only give points for dying of reasons other than execution, but I couldn't find anything related to ehtuanasia, personally I believe that the death row rule should apply to Delon's case as well.

I don’t see how they’re related. If the State isn’t carrying out the execution, then the person died from something other than a death brought about by the State.

Probably has written his farewell message yeah, but in prevision of his death in 10 years ! Writing a farewell message doesn’t mean anything for someone like him who’s craving for attention. I’ll believe it when I see him dead. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At somewhere like Dignitas I believe you become a member and then go through the application process and get approved and then once you are approved it is up to you whether or not you ever exercise your approval to be euthanased (not sure if that is the right way to express). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CastAway 488 Posted April 7, 2022 Twitter chatter for the last couple of hours that he's dead, though IDK how far to believe it - nothing from any verified accounts. Still, putting it here just in case it's actually true 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lafaucheuse 4,015 Posted May 30, 2022 New article with interview of Delon : in his own words, he admits that he is still healthy and physically in good condition. Says that he’s bored and doesn’t want to spend the rest of his days like a zombie in an hopsital bed (but Who does honestly). Speak about his death (his favorite subject now…) and Where he wants to be buried but doesn’t speak about euthanasia anymore : I wouldn’t be surprised if he has given up on it ! Talks about Bardot a bit : they are said to be in close contact and that she wants to die after him in order to speak at his funeral. Weird and morbid interest about death from both of them, I wonder how you can be as obsessed with it :p 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Daredevil 1,188 Posted September 26, 2022 Recent interview with Zelensky https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=b1jkC4u7z_M From around 1:24:00, you can see Delon. No denying he still looks fantastic but consistently sounds frail and short of breath. Maybe Delon can wait until 2024 for his DL induction but I wouldn’t take the risk, especially with all the old French greats dying recently... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lafaucheuse 4,015 Posted April 5, 2023 I feel like he will do a Godard and will ressort to euthanasia at some point. He’s just a major drama queen and now that someone famous paved the way, I think he’ll just follow the steps. I can see him not mentionning it publicly to create more drama and suspens When it does happen. He’s a real pain in the ass. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A French Actor or Actress has never appeared on the DL, apart from Charles Aznavour who was mostly a singer. Thus, Alain Delon really should be on from 2024 onwards, he is much too famous to be missed- the most famous French actor who has ever lived. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Delon is Delon- Le Samouraï, France’s no. 1 symbol of French Cinema. The male Brigitte Bardot and Bardot is France’s most famous actress of all time. I can see Delon going at 88 or 89 at most. Bardot I think will go around 92 or 93, she has always been quite active. I am very surprised Moreau lived to 89, she never looked a picture of health in the 50s and 60s. Without knowing, I would have guessed she died in 2004. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lafaucheuse 4,015 Posted April 6, 2023 Moreau is the reason I get interested in deadpooling. I remember clearly When it was annouced, I was in holidays with my parents in late july or beginning of august. It was a huge news in France. And then I began betting for myself Who would be the next icon to go 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
