Eddie Fisher, one-time '50s crooning idol (just before the rise of Rock & Roll) who became much more (in)famous for his failed marriages to Debbie Reynolds, Elizabeth Taylor and Connie Stevens and later as the father of Star Wars icon and author Carrie Fisher, has died at the age of eighty-two. The initial Los Angeles Times notice is HERE (full obit to follow). The scandalous break-up between Eddie and Reynolds in favor of Liz was sort of the Brad/Jennifer/Angelina tabloid rocker of its day. Fisher was Taylor's fourth husband, between the death of producer Michael Todd and leaving him for Richard Burton (their first go-round), en route to her eight marriages.
R.I.P., Eddie
