Goodbye, Bersagliera 😔
For each good news there must always be a bad one... we lost another legend of the XX century: Gina Lollobrigida.
Tumblr media
Born in 1927, she was one of the last living stars from Golden Age Hollywood. One of the most famous italian actresses and sex symbol of the 50s and 60s. Her filmography is endless and she's been the star of many all-time masterpieces of cinema, both in Italy and in the States. In 2008 she received her own star in the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Gina Lollobrigida as Maria "la Bersagliera" and Vittorio de Sica in "Pane, Amore e Fantasia" (1953)
As the icon she was, she couldn't avoid appearing in Disney comics.
Well-known is the parody Barks made of her in "The Midas Touch", which is really curious 'cause Gina Luluduckita is actually Magica in disguise. Magica. A character inspired by Sophia Loren, Lollobrigida's all time rival:
Tumblr media
No wonder in the italian version she's called Gina... Babuccia! That's kinda funny if you think about it, though! Sophia Loren pretending to be Gina Lollobrigida! XD
Maybe, Gina "Lollo" Lollobrigida didn't appreciate such a straight forward reference, after all she was in fact still collaborating with Topolino at the time.
That's right: Gina Lollobrigida not only was the amazing beauty and perfect actress (but also painter and sculptor) we all know, but she also was a good friend of Topolino.
In the 50s she handled Topolino's inside feature "Fata Fantasia" in which she answered any kind of questions from the readers:
Tumblr media
And even before that, she sent a drawing to Topolino in 1940 when she was 13! The drawing illustrates one of the streets of Subiaco (her native town near Rome) and it was published on issue #413 (Topolino was still in newspaper format at the time), and you can see just how talented she already was:

(This last one is a fun fact I did not know. I've learned about it today from Papersera Forum facebook page ^^)

Star Trek Legend Nichelle Nichols Has Died At 89
Star Trek Legend Nichelle Nichols Has Died At 89 https://buzzfeed.com/skbaer/star-trek-lt-uhura-nichelle-nichols-dies

Nichols as Lt. Nyota Uhura in Star Trek: The Original Series in 1967
She had been treated for dementia in her 80s, and in an Instagram post on Sunday, her son Kyle Johnson wrote that she died of natural causes.
"Her light however, like the ancient galaxies now being seen for the first time, will remain for us and future generations to enjoy, learn from, and draw inspiration," Johnson wrote. "Hers was a life well lived and as such a model for us all."
A beloved icon of the science-fiction franchise, Nichols’ casting as a prominent character in a position of authority was unprecedented and radical for a TV show that first aired in 1966. Her character’s kiss with William Shatner’s Captain James Kirk also broke ground for being one of the first interracial kisses ever aired on television. After the original series ended, Nichols worked with NASA to recruit women and people of color as astronauts and continued to act, appearing onstage and in films like Snow Dogs and the TV series The Young and the Restless. Still, throughout her life, she remained devoted to Star Trek and was a fixture at fan conventions well into her 80s.
