Zsa Zsa Gabor
Hollywood Actress and Socialite
Zsa Zsa Gabor, the Hollywood legend and socialite known for her European glamour and her many marriages, died Sunday December 18, 2016 at the age of 99, according to multiple news sources.
Publicist Ed Lozzi confirmed to Variety that Gabor died Sunday in her Bel Air mansion. She had been on life support for the last five years. TMZ reported that she died of a heart attack.
One of three celebrated sisters who were the toast of society in the mid~20th century, she was preceded in death by her older sister, Magda Gabor, in 1997 and her younger sister, Eva Gabor, in 1995. Her notable movies include Moulin Rouge (1952), in which she starred, as well as Were Not Married! and Death of a Scoundrel. Her fame and charm propelled her into a number of guest~starring roles on popular TV shows including Gilligans Island, The Facts of Life and The Fresh Prince of Bel~Air.
Gabor was as well~known for her romantic life as for her acting â she was married nine times to a variety of notable men. With hotel magnate Conrad Hilton, she had her only child, Francesca Hilton. (Entertainment personality Paris Hilton is her great~niece.)Other husbands included actor George Sanders, Hot Wheels designer Jack Ryan and Frédéric Prinz von Anhalt, the adopted son of Princess Marie Auguste of Anhalt, who survives Gabor.
Gabor had been in poor health for a number of years. A 2002 car accident left her in a wheelchair, and she had strokes in 2005 and 2007. In 2011, her right leg was amputated above the knee because of an infection. ~ See more at: http://www.legacy.com/ns/zsa%20zsa~gabor~obituary/183125044#sthash.5zkoBHh7.dpuf

Zsa Zsa Gabor (/ËÊÉËÊÉË ËÉ¡ÉËbÉËr, É¡ÉËbÉËr/ zhah-zhah gah-bor; born Sári Gábor; February 6, 1917 â December 18, 2016) was a Hungarian-American actress and socialite. Her sisters were actresses Eva and Magda Gabor. Gabor began her stage career in Vienna and was crowned Miss Hungary in 1936.[1] She emigrated to the United States in 1941 and became a sought-after actress with "European flair and style," with a personality that "exuded charm and grace."[2] Her first film role was a supporting role in Lovely to Look At. She later acted in We're Not Married! and played one of her few leading roles in Moulin Rouge (1952), directed by John Huston, who described her as a "creditable" actress.[3] Outside of her acting career, Gabor was best known for her extravagant Hollywood lifestyle, glamorous personality, and her many marriages, having had nine husbands, including hotel magnate Conrad Hilton and actor George Sanders. She once stated, "Men have always liked me and I have always liked men. But I like a mannish man, a man who knows how to talk to and treat a woman â not just a man with muscles."[4]
