I love Madeline :) Always will. When I heard she had died I went numb. That had never happened to me before.
She was beautiful and freaking HILARIOUS.

How funny, I just put On The Twentieth Century into my CD player. God, she was amazing. A brilliant comedic actress with a sparkling voice.
I still find it hard to believe that she's gone.

Posted: 1/23/06 at 7:46pmAlso, one of the most strikingly beautiful women I've ever seen. I walked past her on the street one day about 10 years ago and she gave me a smile---I was nearly knocked ten feet back! Gorgeous.

"Yes, I did it. I killed Yvette. I hated her so... much... it... it... the... it... the... fee... flames... flames... on the side of my face... heaving... breathless..."
Something like that. I first saw her in Clue a couple years ago and I've been a fan ever since.

I got to see on stage in "Born Yesterday" with Ed Asner.
She was a fellow alum of Hofstra University.

SHE IS MY IDOL.
Someone told me once that I looked like her, and I almost kissed them straight on the lips.

"Willkommen, Bienvenue...C'mon In!"
A friend was a PA on the set of "What's Up Doc". She tells wonderful stories about this amazing, talented, kind, generous, beautiful woman.
She could deliver any line--any string of words, really--in a way that made people laugh.
Ms. Streisand did NOT like this...

'QUICK....make believe you know me terribly well, TERRIBLY WELL!"

Posted: 1/23/06 at 9:34pmI saw her in "Born Yesterday" as well, but what is burned into my memory was her performance in the movie, "What's Up Doc". I was just a kid when that movie came out, but, oh how she made me laugh!!
