Famous People

[Troweltalk]

Looking for information about THR and revisions in the elderly, I came across this site listing celebrities who have had hip replacements:

Among many others, the list includes American politicians, Ronald Reagan, Barbara and George (HW) Bush, entertainers, Jane Fonda and Sammy Davis, Jr., and baseball great, Willie Mays.

Funny, I didn't see my name listed..!?! :rant::hehe:

Do you want me to submit a correction? What are you famous for?:D

Well maybe not "famous" but certainly "infamous" :dogkiss:

Infamous? AMEN! (major eye roll--since there's no smiley with that expression!)

(Sorry, Mud, but as one of your hippie contemporaries here, I SO could not let that go!!! :evil: Nonetheless, as a true & loyal friend, my lips are sealed! :D)

Interesting list, Mud....thanks for posting it!

I am miffed to see that NO BoneSmarties are mentioned. I do think we should set them straight about that!

I had absolutely NO idea that Liza Minelli has had hip replacements! I've just seen her in the Sex and the City 2 movie.............and boy oh boy can she MOVE!

If I'm anywhere near as agile at her age I'll be very happy!

I'm shocked! They listed the late Queen Mother simply as Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon!!!! :shk: :shk: :shk:
How rude!

 

[Jamie]

Now THAT is something!!! I bet most of us outside Great Britain wouldn't know who the heck that was!

 

[PRGal]

Perhaps they were just being respectful of her privacy rather than rude . . .

it's something we almost never grant celebrities, perhaps because somewhere along the line someone bought into the theory that even bad publicity is better than anonymity . . .

Just a thought.
