He had a very colorful life.
Is that “chess” or “chest” grand master?
Condolences to Princess Leia on her loss. May the force be with you.
Oh no! He was older than my generation, but I read his two books this year. He was a singing phenom at his prime.....better than anyone..Sinatra, etc. In fact, Sinatra said Eddie Fisher was one of the few he had ever heard with perfect pitch.
He became addicted to “shots” given by Dr. Feel Good. That and his total and complete addiction to Elizabeth Taylor did him in. He said that all of the love songs he ever sang meant nothing until he fell in love with her. Then he knew what the songs meant.
Rip Eddie Fisher......you had quite a life.
He don’t look like Darth Vader.
I took a break just as I turned the page to the picture of Rabbi Max Nussbaum with Elizabeth Taylor and husband Eddie Fisher. I then came here to FR to see what was happening in the world and saw this.
RIP (from one old enough to vividly remember Eddie as opposed to his daughter).
Personal Quotes
Debbie Reynolds was indeed the girl next door. But only if you lived next door to a self-centered, totally driven, insecure, untruthful phony.
By the time I was thirty-three years old I’d been married to America’s sweetheart and America’s femme fatale and both marriages had ended in scandal; I’d been one of the most popular singers in America and had given up my career for love; I had fathered two children and adopted two children and rarely saw any of them; I was addicted to methamphetamines and I couldn’t sleep at night without a huge dose of Librium. And from all this I had learned one very important lesson: There were no rules for me. I could get away with anything so long as that sound came out of my throat.
LMAO
May God grant him eternal rest
You’da thought he died from exhaustion a long time ago...
Good voice but he really didn’t sing especially well.
Never liked him. Wimpy cheater.
To me he had the sex appeal of Harry Reid.

His death leaves only two of Liz Taylor’s eight ex-husbands...Larry Fortensky and John Warner.
According to numerous sources, the answer to that question is of an anatomical nature.
