47! WOW. Hollywood ate her up and spit her out. One of the most remarkable talents of all time. I hope she did find happiness in her final years.

It's clear from this and photos from that day that she was near the end of her rope. Sad.

Yeah right, Deans, she didn't have to work anymore; like he could support her. The theatre chain never materialized.

If it wasn't for Sid Luft and Vincente Minnelli, her children wouldn't have had any stability in their lives. She was a horrible parent!

Judy just wanted to be ordinary, she didn’t enjoy her legend status. It must have alienated her from forming relationships that were based on a genuine connection rather than other people’s expectations of her star status. Fame can be a cruel burden to bear. Fans often ignore the person and instead satisfy their own craving for the image upon which they project their fantasies. To me Judy seems genuinely happy in this clip, she had found her ordinariness. But she could never escape the unrelenting spotlight that must have exhausted her. She had a rare gift that we all were privileged to witness; but at a cost to Judy. However, she wasn’t the tragedy figure some attribute to her: in her all too short life she experienced a whirlwind existence very few experience. Who’s to say a long life is a true reflection of a life well lived?

The last thing in the world Judy wanted to be was ordinary. That 17 readers bought that hogwash shows how much is forgotten about Judy, who, like all great stars, loved being a star, and wouldn't have it any other way.

It's a shame what her family allowed Hollywood to do to her. Commodity, no more,no less.

Very unassuming and down to earth🙏

She was one of the first stars that hollywood tore down She looks very tired but still trying to keep it together It seems like she only just wanted to be validated by somebody

I wish things had been better for her yes she had a drug problem but she gave the world so much and all she ever got from the world was sadness No wonder she was dead at 47 who would be able to endure the constant abuse?

Over the years, my opinion on Mickey Deans has changed quite a lot. Before, I used to see him as a low life scoundrel who killed Judy, but now I realize he wasn't. It's very easy to try and pin on him decades of problems, as if he alone could solve the incredibly complex problems that Judy faced by her mid-40s. Let's not forget that by early 1960's, doctors told her she would not live more than 5 years as a consequence of her liver. Also, Deans simply disappeared from the face of the earth after Judy's death, when he could have try to profit off of her image, even selling her personal belongings. Sad story all around.

The only thing that may qualify as Mickey being a profiteer from Judy’s passing is the book he released after she died. I don’t know how well it sold but it netted him something… if you look up “Mickey Deans joshes” you’ll find a photo related to an interview he did at the time. I almost didn’t recognize him because he has a new set of teeth! However, we will never know the dynamics of their marriage and should be glad she just had someone with her when she left us.

Cut to the early 2000s when he was publicly and openly selling what he had left of her belongings on eBay. I think he earned his own fortune in the late 70s which explains why he disappeared because he had no use for her anymore. His book was a flash in the pan where it belonged.

It wasn’t drug “abuse” that was the issue. Judy was addicted to prescription medication, prescribed by unscrupulous doctors and endorsed by film and television executives. I make this point because I think there are some people (not necessarily you) that think Judy was using drugs like cocaine when she never touched ‘hard’ drugs. There wasn’t the help for people in Judy's situation: no clinics or support. It was Betty Ford who came out as it were and helped put addiction into the public arena, which led to clinics being opened to specifically help those who were struggling with medication. Alas, it was too late for Judy.

She was looking for stability and this oaf she found didn't live up to his promise, no 500 cinemas and no security. He was also gay. After she died he went back to a boyfriend and they were together for years.

Yeah she was in nad shape here. I thing renee zellwegger did fine but she was sooo much sicker i think than she was portrayed. Its so obvious in this she has ran out of gas. Sad.

Remember she was taking sleeping pills & diet pills which wore her down. Strung her out she said. She was treated badly by director of wizard of oz

She and Lana Turner both aged terribly. When they were 45, already looked like 60. I guess too many booze and cigarettes, and in Judy’s Case pills 💊 But again, Dietrich and Crawford aged very well.

Creep!

What a mess she became
