Couple of her quotes. She was a pistol! "Husbands are like fires. They go out if unattended, she would say. Or I want a man who is kind and understanding. Is that too much to ask of a millionaire? I am a marvelous housekeeper. Every time I leave a man I keep his house, she might say, or There is nothing wrong with a woman encouraging a mans advances, as long as they are in cash. What her second husband Conrad Hilton said about being married to her: Life with his young wife, Hilton later wrote, was a little like holding a Roman candle beautiful, exciting, but you were never quite sure when it would go off. And it is surprisingly hard to live the Fourth of July every day.
A beautiful woman in her time.

I think, after about the third husband, anyone dumb enough to fall for her deserved to get fleeced. Fiduciary Darwinism.

I still remember one of Dennis Millers quips about Zsa Zsa. This was right after the cop slapping incident. He said “Zsa” was Hungarian for “Sirhan”.

It is kind of strange seeing all of these photos of her when she was young. I am 50, and she was over 50 when I was old enough to start remembering her...and from a 5-15 year old perspective she might has well have been 100 and eleventy billion years old, and at the time I was incapable of understanding her appeal.

I actually thought she’d died years ago.

True, dat. One of a million reasons why I'm thankful that I'm not part of that crowd. Those women are basically high-end strippers working a brass pole. I'll take a fresh-faced country girl any day of the week.

ZsaZsa was 99? She was the last of the Hollywood bombshells, IMHO.

Here’s what I like about her: She represented Hollywood when Hollywood WAS Hollywood. The real glitz, glamour, and celebrity. Not the crappy Kardashian or Honey Boo Boo stuff.
To: Deplorable American1776
I once dated a guy whose mom was from Hungary, she was beautiful and in photos from her twenties she was the most gorgeous person I have ever known in real life. The only other Hungarian woman I had heard of were Ava and ZsaZsa...I’ve been lamenting my lack of Hungarian ancestry ever since ;). It must be a country of gorgeous women!
To: Morgana
A caller to Howie Carr’s radio show just placed her in the death pool this week.

One more I think was one of the most beautiful and talented from the 40’s/50’s musicals, Mitzi Gaynor, is still alive. Shew was born in 1931 and made her first appearance as a dancer in 1942 with the Los Angeles City Opera. She made her first cinematic role in My Blue Heaven with Fox in 1951. Shortly she went to Paramount and started a run of movies with big name leading men like Gene Kelley, and Frank Sinatra culminating in the role that made her famous as Nellie Forbush in the film version of the Rodgers and Hammerstein musical South Pacific in 1952. She still performs today, but at 85, she doesn’t do a whole lot now. But she was gorgeous and as a dancer, you could bounce bricks off her.

I just thought about her 2 days ago and wondered if she was okay. I have seen the headlines of her health over these past few years. I’ve always liked her.

Her name always has been synonymous with glamour.
RIP, Queen of outer space.

“It must be a country of gorgeous women!”
Yes, a very vibrant group, the Hungarians, esp. the women I think.
This is where the gypsys come from, after all. (I suppose I should say “Romny” or whatever, but I’m not really up on all that.)
