Eddie Fisher Facts
- Upon learning of her father’s endless s*xcapades through his 1999 autobiography Been There Done That, Carrie Fisher retorted, “I’m thinking of having my DNA fumigated”.
- His ex-wives Debbie Reynolds and Elizabeth Taylor were extremely close friends, but they had a fallout over him. The two later buried the hatchet and came together to star in a TV movie called These Old Broads (2001), which was written by his daughter Carrie. In the movie, much like in real life, the two women ridicule their common ex-husband named ‘Freddie Hunter’, who was clearly based on Fisher.
- He was born on the same day as another famous singer, Jimmy Dean (not the same as the actor James Dean) i.e., on August 10, 1928.
- The Hollywood Walk of Fame features 2 stars in honor of Fisher. The one at 6241 Hollywood Boulevard is for recording, and the other at 1724 Vine Street is for television.
