Shirley Temple passes
It's a sad day for those of us who delighted in Hollywood's delightful Shirley Temple. She died today at the age of 85.
DB's head is bowed :'(
"This cute little bundle of talent proved to be a goldmine for Hollywood. She could sing, act, and dance, and instantly became a child celebrity. She said, I stopped believing in Santa Claus when I was six. Mother took me to see him in a department store and he asked for my autograph."
I nominate Shirley Temple for Great Dude in History (http://[url=http://dudeism.com/smf/Themes/default/images/post/thumbup.gif%5Dhttp://dudeism.com/smf/Themes/default/images/post/thumbup.gif%5B/url%5D)

Oh that's sad.
I didn't realise she was still going (well she isn't now).

Dude! Same here! I had no idea she still had life in her before today? Much love to this gem of an actress. :'(
I remember wondering 20 years ago if she was still alive, then thinking, "Eh." when I found out she was.
Her daughter at one point played bass for the Melvins. The lead singer dated the daughter and spent some time at the Temple/Black house back in the day - he called it "David Lynch weird":
