Zsa Zsa Gabor, the Hungarian actress whose self-parodying glamour and revolving-door marriages to millionaires put a luster of American celebrity on a long but only modestly successful career in movies and television, died on Sunday in Los Angeles. She was 99.
The cause was heart failure, her longtime publicist Edward Lozzi said.
Married at least eight times, calling everyone “Dahlink,” flaunting a diamonds-and-furs lifestyle and abetted by gossip columnists and tabloid headline writers, Ms. Gabor played the coifed platinum femme fatale in plunging necklines in dozens of film and television roles, many of them cameos as herself.

She was the last surviving Gabor sister.

RIP to the last surviving Gabor sister. Interestingly enough, I think that she and her sisters were Republicans. Not surprising since they escaped from Hungary so they knew how bad Eastern European dictatorships were and how much better they had it here in America.
Here’s a clip of her as Minerva in the final episode of Batman:

Was Ava her twin?
RIP
All three of the Gabor sisters were stunning beauties in their day.
99... that’s a damn good run.
RIP, Zsa Zsa...
LOL
Pants tighten.
Stunning...
I didn’t know there was a third one. I had only heard of Eva and Zsa Zsa.
I believe her name was Magdalna. Magda for short. She was the oldest, died in 1997.
