Actress Zsa Zsa Gabor, a fixture in Hollywood for six decades, asked that a priest read her the last rites on Sunday, following hospitalization two days earlier due to complications from hip surgery.

The 93-year-old Gabor, whose string of movies, television shows and wealthy husbands dates to the 1950s, was visited by a priest at the Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center, her husband Frederick Prinz von Anhalt, told Reuters.

Gabor was able to speak "very little," though she was conscious, he said.

Gabor was admitted on Friday to the hospital to treat two blood clots, only two days after being released for hip replacement surgery. Gabor broke her hip on July 17 when she fell out of bed while watching the television game show "Jeopardy," said her publicist John Blanchette.

I nominate Mel Gibson. He's been trying pretty hard to get himself killed lately.

Did anyone see Harold Dow's death coming?

I certainly didn't. I don't know what he died of - just that he died "suddenly," at age 62 at his home.

Harold seemed like a really nice man - AND he rocked the Freedom 'Fro back in the day.

RIP, Harold.

Ahh, yes. They did a piece on him on all the Sunday Morning Shows. Everyone respected him.

RIP Harold.

If he lived in L.A. I can guess why he died suddenly.

Trilby · 08-23-2010, 06:10 AM

He lived in New Jersey...

We're not doing very well, are we? Anyone have Tony Curtis?

monster · 09-30-2010, 08:08 AM

oh dear, spudcon had gloria stuart. but as she was 100 when she died, we need to find a different scoring system from the traditional to get him some points for that

Trilby · 09-30-2010, 09:42 AM

wow - greg giraldo died yesterday.

I certainly didn't see that one coming.

Seems it was a prescription drug od at a party at this hotel...another one gone to drugs.

RIP Greg. You were a bright ray.

He can get the "other prize" for most correct deaths or whatever.
Same as we did last year for ummm ... somebody.

Yeh - what a shame - Another young comedian/actor dying from drugs/drinking.

Sad to hear about Tony Curtis, even if I had him on the radar.
