Just horrible - in general and based on the implication. That channel / company wrecked so many, especially women and got away largely unscathed in the long run.
Rosalind Ashford, the soprano behind hits from Martha and the Vandellas including “Dancing in the Street” and “Heat Wave,” has died. She was 83. Ashford was an original member of the Motown girl group Martha and the Vandellas, best known for their timeless soul pop songs. She sang on more than 20 of the group’s top 40 singles on Billboard’s R&B chart, including “Heat Wave,” which hit No. 1, and “Dancing in the Street,” which peaked at No. 2 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart.
Wow, what a great group they were!

RIP The Mighty Sparrow, calypso singer.
Mr Belding - ugh
Met him as he signed autographs for my kids at a single A baseball game in Bowlimg Green, KY. Nice guy.
Not a celebrity but one’s daughter. Don’t even know if he’s a celebrity per se but these continued stories are so very sad. I wish someone had an answer. I wish there was help. I don’t know if people see the signs but there has to be a way to help these folks…especially a 13 year old.

Support your state NAMI chapter with your wallet. Look up suicide prevention programs and support whatever organization offers them.
Funding is a HUGE problem right now. Our state just slashed our funding for suicide prevention by 25%. It’s the main program our state NAMI chapter delivers, so it’s a huge hit.
And don’t blame the family. My nephew gave ZERO warning signs but my sister still feels guilty, 11 years later.
I haven’t heard of the organization. Will look into it.
Thanks
They offer so many good programs. For law enforcement, teachers, workplaces, etc. Support groups for peers (people with diagnoses) and family members. Family to Family class for family members/friends - that’s how I first learned about NAMI and it was a lifesaver. Each state is different, so the programs they offer may vary.
Many nonprofits are currently struggling, including food banks, Public TV & public radio, health nonprofits, the list is endless.
I’ve heard wonderful things about NAMI.
How can the actors who were college students in animal house be 79? ![]()
Well, she’s not the first to die either, and some were older, like Donald Sutherland (Prof. Jennings) who died at 88. But, I get it. It’s astonishing that those actors have gotten older when we certainly haven’t.
That, of course, would be John Belushi, who died in 1982 at 33
And, according to Google:
John Vernon (Dean Wormer) who died at 72 in 2005
Verna Bloom (Marion Wormer) who died at 80 in 2019
Stephen Furst (Flounder) who died at 63 in 2017
Doug Kenney (Stork, co-writer) who died at 30 in 1980*
*One of my favorite movies, A Futile and Stupid Gesture, documents the brilliant but troubled Kenney as he and his Harvard friend Henry Beard create National Lampoon and its spin offs and movies, including Animal House.
Because they weren’t college student age when they played college students?
