#LeslieNielsen Day On TNTML!!!

I am a crazzyyyyy huuggeee Leslie Nielsen fan. Growing up with Airplane, and Naked Gun - how could you not be?

In honor of his passing, I have decided to pay Frank Drebin the highest of highest honors ... I am giving him my Twitter account. Yep, that is right - all tweets from @JenFriel will be quotes all said by el Senor Nielsen. So if you guys @reply me on anything, I will have to find the most appropriate quote of his to respond with.

Like this gem ...

Jane: I wanted you to know, now, I've loved you since the first day I met you, and I'll never stop. I'm a very lucky woman.
Frank: So am I...

This is not going to be easy considering all the stuff you guys send me ... haha!! Oh yeah AND all the titles on TNTML posts that I tweet out ALSO have to be quotes of his, or I can't tweet 'em! Crazy ... but this man meant that much to me.

Rock on el Senor Nielsen!! Thanks again for all the funny times good friend!

#RIP Leslie Nielsen

NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

 

Per Fox News: Canadian actor Leslie Nielsen, who most famously achieved global success in comedy movies such as "Airplane!" and "The Naked Gun," has died aged 84, Manitoba radio station CJOB reported Sunday.

His death was first reported in unconfirmed messages on Twitter late Sunday that suggested the actor had died in the hospital after suffering from pneumonia.

His nephew Doug Nielson, told CJOB that Leslie had been in the hospital in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida for 12 days and that with family and friends by his side at 5:30pm Sunday "he just fell asleep and passed away."

Born in Regina, Canada, Leslie Nielsen appeared in more than 100 movies and hundreds of television shows over the course of his career.

Awarded a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, he was also made an Officer of the Order of Canada in 2002 despite also being a naturalized US citizen.

He was married four times, and had two children from his second marriage, Maura and Thea Nielsen.
