Mick Jagger has released a statement on Facebook regarding the passing of his longtime partner L'Wren Scott:

I am still struggling to understand how my lover and best friend could end her life in this tragic way.
We spent many wonderful years together and had made a great life for ourselves.
She had great presence and her talent was much admired, not least by me.
I have been touched by the tributes that people have paid to her, and also the personal messages of support that I have received.
I will never forget her,
Mick

Mickey Ronney dies aged 93

Mickey Rooney, the pint-sized actor who was one of MGM’s giant box office attractions in the late ’30s and early ’40s, died on Sunday. He was 93.
As adept at comedy as drama and an excellent singer and dancer, Rooney was regarded as the consummate entertainer. During a prolific career on stage and screen that spanned eight decades (“I’ve been working all my life, but it seems longer,” he once said), he was nominated for four Academy Awards and received two special Oscars, the Juvenile Award in 1939 (shared with Deanna Durbin) and one in 1983 for his body of work.
He also appeared on series and TV and in made for television movies, one of which, “Bill,” the touching story of a mentally challenged man, won him an Emmy. He was Emmy nominated three other times. And for “Sugar Babies,” a musical revue in which he starred with Ann Miller, he was nominated for a Tony in 1980.
Both in his professional and personal life Rooney withstood many peaks and valleys. He was married eight times and filed for bankruptcy in 1962, having gone through the $12 million he had earned. And until middle age, he was never able to quite cast off his popularity as a juvenile. Nonetheless, Rooney’s highs more than compensated for his lows. Via his “Andy Hardy” series of films, the five-foot-three Rooney came to embody the virtues of small-town American boyhood. Those films and a series of musicals in which he co-starred with Judy Garland made him the nation’s biggest box office attraction for three years running.

This is just absolutely so sad. Died almost broke , suffered elderly abuse from god knows who, probably family members

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Mickey Rooney's will calls for the bulk of his modest estate to go to a stepson who had been caring for him in his final years.
Documents filed Tuesday in Los Angeles Superior Court show Rooney signed his final will and trust on March 11, less than a month before his death.
The filing states Rooney's estate is currently worth an estimated $18,000.
Rooney, who died Sunday at age 93, named his stepson and caretaker Mark Rooney and his wife as the sole beneficiaries of his estate.
The "Andy Hardy" star, whose career spanned more than 80 years in show business, lost much of his fortune in recent years.
He said he was a victim of elder abuse and financial mismanagement and went to live with Mark Rooney, repaying his debts and continuing to appear in movies.
