Known for Disney's Mickey Mouse Club and several beach movies. She had been battling multiple sclerosis for more than twenty years.

All major News Channels reporting her death.

Sad. I just heard it on NPR. Annette was my first crush as a five year old.

RIP.....

Annette was truly an inspiration to me. May she RIP and dance and sing forever and ever in heaven. 🙂

SO WRONG!

I heard Cher died too.

^Cher is live and well the last that I heard.^

 

[Laugh]

I heard Cher died too.

Incorrect rumor started with a tweet #nowthatchersdead. Tweet was directed at Margaret Thatcher and reads "now thatcher's dead", not "now that cher's dead".

But back to the OP, sorry to hear about Annette Funicello. She was always a favorite.

I'll always remember the old SNL spoof of the Mickey Mouse Club in which Gilda Radner announces, "Hi, I'm Annette! And these are my breasts!"

RIP, Annette Funicello
