Default The handsomest man alive passes away
Paul Newman died of cancer last night at the age of 83.

For shame, he seemed like a really solid guy all around.

RIP. He was a great actor and a great man too, selling his mayonnaise or whatever and giving most or all proceeds to charity.

Terrific actor as we all know...an even better human being.

he has donated over 200 MILLION dollars to charity, mostly to a camp for critically ill kids.

RIP Paul.

I remember when he was on Letterman one time and he asked him about his salad dressing, and he said how it was his most successful enterprise and at that time they'd donated over 70 million to charity. He was happy to put his face on a salad dressing bottle to do that.

RIP.

Terrible news.

He was a great actor and has been in some of the most classic films made.

He was right up there with Steve McQueen, in my books, as one of the coolest actors to ever come along on film.

One of my all time favourite male actors. Will always remember him for his role in Slapshot and the Sting.

RIP
