me too

Now That's a party I'd like to go.

Mmm. Me, too!

@@illnsp08 You, & me both!

If I could hit that 'like' button a thousand times, I would!!! We could go together!

cjrrun Were Dean and Sammy ever honoured by the Variety Club and get to sit at the top table like Frank?

@@lindashelley3635 Don't think so

Nope. Lucy was 75.

@@lindakilbride6755 She died April 26, 1989 (aged 77) so in 1984 she was 73

@@jjgreek1 but she was 6 years older than Desi. Lucy was born in 1911, Desi was born 1917, and Desi died in 1986 at the age of 69.

@@jjgreek1 yes, she died in 1989, but this particular Kennedy Centre Honors was held in Dec 1986.

@@lindakilbride6755 so the headline on the video is wrong?

I thought of too and felt sad.

Desi and Lucy became closer after their divorce - spoke regularly on the phone (weekly) co-parenting and Lucy regularly called for advice about shows. They visited their grandchildren together. Desi sent red carnations (her favorite) to Lucy on their Wedding Anniversary at least 15 years after their divorce. They both had successful 2nd marriages, Lucy to Gary Morton till she died and Desi with Edith Hirsch till her death. Seems like both Edie, Desi's wife, and Gary, Lucy's husband, accepted their close friendship. Actually Lucy and Edie played cards together and Desi and Gary golfed together. ❤❤❤❤ to the 4.

@@LJ-ht4zs Yes, Desi even met Edie be ever met Lucy. I know all. Gary used to call Desi Husband-in-law since he Desi was there a lot and Desi said he doesn't care what Gary thinks about him sending flowers every year on a few occasions. I am editing a lot article/dissertation about the , no matter what, it will be heartbreaking.

Wasn't this GREAT?! IT feels good to reminisce

No Never ever again, because the young people of today don't want it or care about it either, it's not only sickening but unforgivable as well PERIOD!!!!!

Well said!

so true!

My favorite male movie star of all time was Cary Grant (saw the movie Suspicion on the MIllon Dollar Movie on tv at least 7 or 8 timess from age 12-18. He looked great here at age 80. Still a handsome appealing man. Loved Katherine Hepburn, she was #1 female actress for me, except as I got older Lucille Ball became my favorite actress for all times.

Go watch AFI Lifetime Achievement Awards. I think they were modeled after this.

Me too just graduated from High school in 83

Loved both of them -

Наталья Лифатова i loved Dean. Funny and so talented.

Love Yu2 was diana ross there? i saw dionne warwick but i dont ross would of let some white chick do her act if she was there

Jim Branca No, I think we've would of noticed the Fabolusness of Ms Ross..lol It would of been nice though..Her & Lucy performed together on tv

@@loveyu2778 Yes with Dinah Shore

I wish Desi and Edie were there too. The two of them were friends with Lucy and Gary. Maybe illness prevented them from coming?

Me too! What a beauty she is ❤️

Yes, the smoking was bad for Lucy's voice, and ultimately took her life (heart issue). When Lucy and Desi were on tv they always smoked - at that time no health warnings about smoking - also cigarette companies were sponsors. Desi smoked cigarettes and Cuban cigars and died of lung cancer. My father died at age 61 - smoked since age 12. When the health warnings came out he was addicted to cigarettes - 4 packs a day! He was younger than both Desi and Lucy. Damn the cigarette companies for suppression the info about the dangers of smoking plus what chemicals they put in to make cigarettes more addictive.

She was a marine of course she smoked.

narcissa clink I didn’t know that she was a marine.

Bob Hope??? Carol Burnet???

Absolutely Sean Connery and his wife.

And Gale Gordon.. this was before Life with Lucy wasn't it? Also was Viv still alive? Im sure there's a story about Carol, they were great friends

Also Don Rickles is mia

Henry Fonda was dead, unfortunately.

@@regannem Oh that's right. Thanks.

@@guyinsf No prob!

Actually loved Rosalind Russell playing Auntie Mame (not a musical) also in that version like the other actors better - the nephew both younger and older and his wife, as well. I did not like some of the casting in Lucy's Mame - did not feel that the director gave it proper justice - unfortunately because of the skiing accident - the movie was put off for at least a year and she also could not be as agile - physical comedy - because of the severe leg injury. Wished she had not done it. Also, while I did not see Wildcat, have heard her sing the song "Hey Look Me Over," she was terrific - 1960 she looked good and sounded good, however, the 8 performances per week caused her physical exhaustion. While she did not get rave reviews her fans loved it and it was a sold out for the entire run - but due to exhaustion she could finish and personally gave back the money for the tickets to her fans. Also, since she had just gotten a divorce in 1960 - emotionally exhausting for both her and Desi - very sad. Both these productions would have worked if circumstances were different - less demands in 1960 and better casting and directing for Mame.

Didn't see Hank Fonda or Van Johnson. Were they still alive? Hank Fonda and Lucy were very close, also close to Van Johnson, they did two movies together and he also appeared on I Love Lucy in their wonderful dance together - totally wonderful and brilliant. A+++

@@LJ-ht4zs Thanks for your comment. Hank had died 2 years before. Van lived to be in his 90s! He died in 2008 I believe. :)

@@regannem Hank Fonda a Lucy did 2 movies together - The Big Street and Yours Mine and Ours; Van Johnson and Lucy did 3 movies together - Easy to Wed, Too Many Girls, and Yours, Mine and Ours - plus Van was on 2 tv shows I Love Lucy and The Lucy Show.
