Nipsey Russell, 80


My favorite thing to watch nowadays (besides bad amateur porn) is the Game Show Network. I love it when they show all the cheesy 1970’s B&C list celebrities spouting off answers to inane questions. I know, I know, there are still many celeb’s doing the same thing but they’re not quite the caliber as Paul Lynde, Rose Marie, Charles Nelson Reily & Mr Nipsy Russell.

I don’t want to remember Mr. Russell for his performance in ‘The Wiz’ but for his poetic answers to such questions as ‘Mary, Mary Quite Contrary couldn't make her garden grow with water, so she used *blank* instead (courtesy of IMDB) and in ‘Car 54, Where Are You?’ & ‘Wild Cats’.

Mr. Russell passed away from stomach cancer.

October 13, 1924 – October 2, 2005
RIP
