Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | Bernie Mac the Comedian died I don't watch sitcoms.... but just heard this morning on the news that the very very funny Bernie Mac died from Pneumonia ......He was only 50 years old. How sad is that ? I guess there have been rumors he died - and rumors he was stable....but ABC just did a tiny announcement that he died. I would have thought he'd get a little more TIME on the news than just an announcement. Man - Paris hilton getting her nails done gets more air time than he did.

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | Well - I guess it IS true and just happened early this morning. The news probably didn't get the stories yet - but it's def true. South Sider, actor Bernie Mac, dies at 50 :: CHICAGO SUN-TIMES :: News I always loved his face....everything about him was funny. |

| I had read an article that he was hospitalized with pneumonia, but they did downplay the seriousness of it. They said that he would be fine. Wow, he must have taken a turn for the worse. My prayers are with his family and friends.

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | It IS sad. In a world full of problems & sadness - that was one guy that could be funny without even speaking. I normally don't 'do' the celeb thing...but that really shocked me too. |

| That's sad, he was so young. That's the only article I see that is reporting it. I just did a search and I couldn't find it anywhere else. There were alot of rumors that he died, but just yesterday they were saying he was responding well and would be released soon! That's awful.

| I didn't know, thanks for posting V. I loved his tv show and the interaction with the child was so funny sometimes my stomach would hurt from laughter. So young.

| Bernie was really funny, he had the expression and timing of a true comedian. I loved his TV show, the dynamic with the kids was spot on. He'll be missed. And I don't do celebrity worship.

| I just told a 15 year old girl and she was stunned and saddened also. He reached so many age groups with his humor. I said to Britt "You know how a lot of funny people think they have to be vulgar....Bernie Mac was hallarious without being vulgar at all".

| When someone has the gift of making our day just a little bit better by putting a smile on our face then their presence has had a moment in our lives. He will be missed. |
