Debbie Reynolds, star actress of the 1952 classic movie “Singin’ in the Rain ” has passed away just one day after her daughter,actress-writer Carrie Fisher. Reynolds was 84; she died on Wednesday December 28,2016.


The stress of the daughter’s death, Carrie who passed away on Tuesday December 27, 2016 was too much on her.

Reynolds was a superstar early in life. After two minor roles at Warner Bros. and three supporting roles at MGM, studio boss Louis B. Mayer cast her in “Singin’ in the Rain,” despite Kelly’s objections. She was 19 with little dance experience, and she would be appearing with two of the screen’s greatest dancers, Donald O’Connor and Kelly, who also co-directed.

Reynolds enjoyed the very heights of show business success and endured the depths of personal tragedy and betrayal. She lost one husband to Elizabeth Taylor and two other husbands plundered her for millions. Fisher, who found lasting fame as Princess Leia in “Star Wars” and struggled for much of her life with drug addiction and mental health problems, died after falling ill on a plane and being hospitalized.

May her soul rest in peace!
