Hollywood Icon Of Comedy And Camp Was 84
One of my favorite comedians from that era of cheesy game shows.

Loved Rip's campyness whenever he would randomly appear on some show or movie.
I first remembered him in one of the Cheech and Chong movies, if I remember correctly.
Was always funny when he would take off his rug.
RIP Rip.
Bye.

One of the “pleasures” of your fifties is that the generation of stars you grew up with start dying off at a rapid pace.

I always confused him with Rip Torn.

Sad to hear he's gone, although this is one of those celebrity deaths where I thought he had passed a few years ago.

One of the all-time great pop queens. May he team up with Paul Lynde and titillate suburban moms in heaven for eternity.
