TMZ is reporting that actress Zsa Zsa Gabor has died. Gabor was 99.
Gabor’s publicist confirmed the news with CBS Los Angeles.
TMZ said that Gabor suffered a heart attack Sunday at her home and was rushed to the hospital, where her death was confirmed. No further information was available.
While Gabor had multiple acting credits, her greatest performance was playing herself: She was famous for her accented English (calling everyone “darling,” which came out “dah-link”), eccentric name, offscreen antics (including a 1989 incident in which she slapped a Beverly Hills cop) and one-liners about her jewels, nine marriages and ex-husbands. Despite her glamorous image, her life, especially in later years, was marred by battles between her much-younger husband Frederic Prinz von Anhalt and her daughter.
