Loved his music. That big, clear voice. I always enjoyed Bennett and Dean Martin more than Sinatra.
He was a huge star for decades, because he had Talent. 😀
His later years, duetting with todays stars was fun too.
I feel sad for the younger ones who only know him from his days with Gaga.
R.I.P.
Absolutely brilliant artist. I love his paintings.
Boy Dinner checks out. The question is, will nutritionists, arm-chair experts, and the New York Times weigh in to shame boys for disordered, problematic eating, or is that reserved exclusively for “Girl Dinner”? Misogyny, thy name is gendinner.
Yup. Bad nutrition, disordered eating… if dudes do it, no words.
Tony..rest in peace. An absolute genius. ❤️
Frank Sinatra said he loved the way Tony covered Frank’s songs over any other artist. I also saw Tony duet with K.D. Lang in concert. Amazing! R.I.P.
A terrific guy with a gorgeous voice and a beautiful song about dear S.F. He will be missed, but we were lucky to have him, and still singing, for this long. 💕
So even though Sarah @ Lainey Gossip referred to Timothy Olyphant’s daughters as nepo daughter and tennis daughter, it didn’t click that his real life daughter would be playing his daughter in the new Justified.
The last time Raylan Givens had a teenager in his life she was played by Kaitlyn Dever. The original cast of Justified is so, so talented.
Anyway, nepo daughter isn’t bad but before I realized she was nepo daughter, I just thought she’s no Kaitlyn Dever. But then again the new bad guy is no Boyd Crowder. Timothy Olyphant as Raylan Givens remains my favorite character on tv.
I haven’t watched the new stuff yet, haven’t had time, but hopefully this weekend. I remember Kaitlyn Dever on the original series, she more than held her own with amazing actors. She is super talented.
This is sad news. He was one of my favs.
Ginger Gaetz can go sit down. I don’t even like Barbie and for feminist reasons, never had them as a child, but I’m going to see this movie because it looks fun and harmless. Trans Agenda? Sign me up. I can’t believe they were allowed on the red carpet. We have got to stop letting these Christofacists grandstand.
Same, same. Hated Barbies (and most dolls, honestly) but based on the trailer and this news of a “trans agenda” (hell yeah!) this will likely be the first movie I see in the theater since Black Panthers.
her comment – disappointingly low T from Ken — was so clearly a dig at her own husband. she’s really an odious person and so, so ignorant.
Tony Bennett ~ A class act. RIP 🙏
What we really need is a general strike. We’re ALL getting screwed!
My first thought when I heard that Tony had passed was oh, poor Lady Gaga. They had gotten so close over the past few years.
Tony Bennett was the epitome of class. I thought about him a few weeks ago and hoped that he was doing well. I also prayed that his wife was doing fine as she said the “long goodbye” to him as loved ones of those with Alzheimer’s are faced with doing. I will forever remember Mr. Bennett’s smooth, cool voice and am grateful that his voice will live on via his musical catalog.
a class act. Beautiful voice. A legend.
Saddened by the news of Tony’s death. What a beautiful man, inside and out. Rest easy Tony.
A true gentleman.
Waiting for the stories to leak about his behavior behind closed doors to ruin the legend.
We don’t get to have nice things anymore.
I hate this space I inhabit, but this is the world in which we live.
There aren’t any heroes or good guys anymore. Maybe there never were. The media just didn’t feel like outting them in previous generations.
Godspeed, Maestro.
18-20 years ago, I went to see Stevie Wonder at MSG. Tony Bennett was his surprise guest, they did “ For Once in My Life”, you can find the clip on Youtube, he was fantastic! “I wanna be around” will always be my favorite. He was supporting MLK before it was popular. A brilliant singer and an even better human being. RIP , Sir.

David Beckham doesn’t get enough credit for everything he’s done for MLS. It is what it it is today because he pioneered the way for athletes and athlete wages in the US. Having said that, having Messi, Busquets and now Iniesta play for inter Miami is like watching 80s pop star perform at 6 flags. You love it for the nostalgia, but is it that big of an impact on MLS as a whole? That’s yet to be discovered.
Loved Tony Bennet and his music and so glad I had the opportunity to go to his concerts, especially his later ones. Didn’t know what a great human being he was until now. Glad he has had a long and life to make a great contribution to the world.
