It's interesting that none of the stories I've seen about Reitman mentioned "Father's Day," the movie he directed that included the songs Young Boy and The World Tonight. I'm guessing it's because the movie wasn't much good, achieving the difficult feat of making the combo of Robin Williams and Billy Crystal not funny.

R.I.P. all of the Covid deaths. Close to a million here in the US. Please get a vaccine and booster. Last I heard there was an overall 97% of the Covid deaths were due to lack of Vaccinations. The people who have vaccinations get it for about 3 days and recover when the antibodies kick in, if that. Many get sniffles and a runny nose. That's it.

Sadly it was drugs again and you just wonder why people continue to play games with their life. He was not a kid so he should know better. I guess he had "demons" and he was not strong enough to fight them. What a shame.

Why these guys play "Russian Roulette" with drugs is beyond me!

Still having trouble with Tom Petty's untimely passing due to drugs. Wish he would have sat out that tour. I saw him every year for so many years. Was it Nancy Reagan who said just say NO? It's such a gamble with all the fentinal out there amongst other things. So heartbreaking about Taylor, it's beyond comprehension.

Exactly. Very sad when money, talent,fame, looks and beautiful family are not enough for you.

Bobby Rydell Dead at 79
Bobby was a central part of the Philadelphia dynasty in music ... so big, streets were named after him. Paul McCartney famously said Bobby's hit, "Swinging School," served as the inspiration behind The Beatles' early mega-hit, "She Loves You."
