People have theorized that until Oprah Winfrey, Nichelle Nicoles was the most famous black woman ever on the planet.

apparently there was a burial dispute over Sherman Helmsey's remains.


fyi, Sherman Hemsley played George Jefferson. he only $50,000 left. He had a half-brother no one knew about.

apparently I got the wrong tv series. it was 227 I was thinking of, not jeffersons. never really watched the series.

Hemsley, if I remember correctly died in El Paso, TX so I just assumed he was broke as a joke if he was living there... I blame Weezy's excessive spending habits for that shit

Edit: In all seriousness, I think the rumors about him being gay were true and he just wanted to live in a place and be anonymous and live his life. Everyone should live their life as they see fit so no big deal to me... I will admit that it was weird as fuck to me that he died in El Paso, TX. That was some pretty random ass shit to me.

I did a bit of my own research she died of a form of Stomach Cancer. How awful.

From wiki:

Michelle led a healthy lifestyle; she was a vegan and never smoked or drank alcohol.[9] In August 1997,[3] Thomas was diagnosed with a rare cancer, intra-abdominal desmoplastic small-round-cell tumor.[10] She underwent surgery to remove a lemon-sized tumor shortly before landing her The Young and the Restless role in the spring of 1998. In October 1998, she underwent surgery after a second cancerous growth ruptured. After being released from the hospital, Thomas flew home to New Jersey to spend Thanksgiving with her family.
.............................. ............

I remember reading that they stopped operating on her because the tumors would reappear. strange.

I suspect that is becasue they never found the source of her reoccuring cancer.
