Perry the most surprising of the 3 as he is actually in one of the films that was up for best film on the night! Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. Although Michael J Pollard was Oscar nominated, and snubbed. Denise Nickerson and former Oscar nominee Valentina Cortese also ignored. Oh, and Carol Lynley, who seemed rather forgotten on her death, but people should go watch Bunny Lake Is Missing if they haven't. Classic but somewhat forgotten psychological horror film from the 60s. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ladyfiona 2,585 Posted February 15, 2020 Caroline Flack found dead. Looks like suicide. I know she got kicked off as host of Love Island like a month ago for abusing her boyfriend and a trial was due to start. I think this is the third Love Island related death in two years now. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is the one who undeservingly won Strictly, dated Harry Styles and was alleged to have beaten up her boyfriend. Not exactly. Flack started as an actress in Bo Selecta and then Weapons of Mass Distraction. I thought she was quite good in both tbh and not sure why she turned to presenting. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Creep 7,070 Posted February 17, 2020 Hollywood family and sex therapist Amie Harwick died after falling from a third floor balcony and a former boyfriend has been arrested in connection with her death, local media reported, citing police. Harwick was found unconscious on the ground at around 1:15 am on Saturday after officers responded to a report of a “woman screaming” in a Hollywood Hills neighborhood. Harwick's roommate met police in the street and told them she was being assaulted. Harwick was taken to a hospital where she later died from her injuries. Harwick recently expressed fear about her boyfriend Gareth Pursehouse and filed a restraining order against him. The restraining order had expired and the two had seen one another in the past few weeks, police said. Harwick was the former fiancée of television personality Drew Carey, host of The Price Is Right game show. The two split in 2018. SC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
