    I learned about Carol Burnett when i was a teen. They've ran the famous Carol Burnett tv Show here in the Philippines! I wasn't that really fluent in English at the time but she made me laugh so hard with her acts and face expressions!!! She was so hillarious! I've never skipped watching her on tv every week! She is indeed a legend and an icon!!!

God bless you and your family and thank you for your life’s work of bringing a reprieve of happiness and laughter into our lives; one hour at a time. You truly had Angels watching over you and hearing that you paid it back really proves your character. Thank you for being your best!

    Carrie does not look well here. This was filmed in 1997 she supposedly died from a surprise diagnosis of “cancer”five years later. Rumor on the street says That she got HIV years before by sharing needles and that her mother did not want to share that with the world. So as famous people usually do they say cancer when it was really AIDS. Same with Chadwick Boseman. Cancer sounds so much better than died of complications from undiagnosed HIV infection. The latter tells a story that people don’t feel comfortable telling the former doesn’t no one asks about cancer.
