    Same age as Keith Richards too (75). Years ago, before Keith was proven to be immortal, who would you have guessed would live longer? Crazy.

    Go read her book if you haven't. She was so much more than a single character on L&S

    Highly influential woman in entertainment

    This is really too bad. She was pretty enormous in her industry, in a good way.

    She seemed to be a pretty cool women and liked to laugh. If I recall correctly she ran pretty hard with John Belushi back in the day.

    I didn't mean to demean her accomplishments by only referencing L&S in the title. Agree that she was quite an influential figure. But that show was how most of us first "met" her.

    All good. The bullshit media is at fault. Advertising to the lowest common denominator
