Hollywood legend Tony Curtis passed away. He was an
Oscar-nominated actor and appeared in films including "Some Like It Hot" and "Spartacus" and also "The Boston Strangler".
His daughter is Jamie Lee Curtis.
RIP

Don't forget "The Great Race" where his teeth "sparkled" everytime he smiled  He was a cutie.

Odd that he and Eddie Fisher passed so close together. Both married to Liz and Debbie (at different times I hope).

snip:
He also became a painter whose canvasses sold for as much as $20,000.
I'll bet the value of those paintings will now rise.

Maybe you were being funny and I missed it but, Tony Curtis was never married to Elizabeth Taylor or Debbie Reynolds.

Pulling people out of the ditc...

the wiki revolution rocks Curtis was married six times. His first wife was actress Janet Leigh, to whom he was married from 1951–1962, and with whom he fathered actresses Kelly and Jamie Lee Curtis. Curtis, who admitted to his infidelity throughout their marriage, divorced Leigh in 1962 to marry Christine Kaufmann, the 17-year-old German co-star of his latest film, Taras Bulba. In 1963 Curtis married Kaufmann. They had two daughters, Alexandra (born July 19, 1964) and Allegra (born July 11, 1966). They divorced in 1968. Curtis was also married to:
Leslie Allen (April 20, 1968 – 1982); divorced, two sons
Andria Savio (1983 – 1992); B movie actress (e.g. 1983's Stryker)
Lisa Deutsch (February 28, 1993 – 1994); divorced
Jill Vandenberg Curtis (November 6, 1998 – September 29, 2010; his death)

Is thate where they got the idea for Lyle Waggoner on the Carol Burnett Show? That always cracked me up - he had diamonds on his teeth when he smiled.

6 marriages sounds like a lot.
But his daughter Jamie had nothing but love and adoration for him, so rest well Mr. Curtis.
