Pat Boone was a huge star in the 1950s and 60s, loved by fans everywhere.
In his long career, he did many things like writing songs, acting, writing books, and speaking to inspire people. He’s even written a book about faith called “If.”
Pat got married to Shirley Lee Foley when he was only 19. Shirley was the daughter of Red Foley, a famous country music singer.
One year after starting his music career, Pat Boone became famous with his hit song “Ain’t That a Shame,” which was originally by Fats Domino. In 1956, he had a song that reached number one on the charts, and only Elvis Presley was more popular at the time.
When he was just 23, he had his own TV show called The Pat Boone Chevy Showroom. It was on ABC and aired every week for 115 episodes until 1960.
“I was the youngest person ever to have my own music show on a big TV network, at 22 years old,” Boone said in an interview with Closer magazine.
Pat Boone’s career kept getting better and better. He became one of the most famous singers in America and also acted in movies like Journey to the Center of the Earth, State Fair, and The Greatest Story Ever Told, among others.
All the while, his wife Shirley was there, supporting him. She took care of their four daughters and also worked as an actress and assistant director.
They were married for 65 years until Shirley passed away at 84. She died because of complications from vasculitis, which is a group of disorders that damage blood vessels.
“Being married to one person for 65 years isn’t common in this wild industry,” Pat Boone shared with The Christian Post. “My wife Shirley passed away last year, and now I’m alone.”
Pat Boone still lives in the house they shared for many years and doesn’t plan to move. But he says he feels the sadness of losing his wife.
“I live here alone with a housekeeper and my dog, a little cocker spaniel named Shadow,” Pat Boone shared with Closer Weekly. “It’s just me and Shadow, feeling a bit lonely. But I’m okay. I miss Shirley.”
After his wife Shirley passed away, Pat told People magazine, “We had a wonderful life together for 65 years. She’s moved on to another place, but we’ll be together again one day.”
The love and devotion that these two shared is both beautiful and inspirational. Rest in peace Shirley.

Morena Baccarin hated kissing Ryan Reynolds and filming two-day sex scene with him in Deadpool
Morena Baccarin portrayed Ryan Reynolds’ on-screen love interest in the film.
You’d think an A-lister like Ryan Reynolds would make a lasting impact on anyone he kisses… but it appears you’d be mistaken.
Morena Baccarin spent two days kissing the Canadian star, comparing it to ‘kissing a gigantic latex condom’.
Blake Lively, if you’re reading this, before you see red and go ape s*** on your husband and baby daddy, remember that he was merely acting while filming Deadpool.
If you saw the 2016 film, you’re surely familiar with the sex’scene’, which is actually a collection of sequences showing a year of intimacy.
Baccarin was entrusted with kissing her on-screen spouse during the original Deadpool film and its 2018 sequel, when she played the protagonist’s fiancée, Vanessa Carlysle.
In fairness to the Wrexham owner, he was wearing a mask during the jam-packed sex scene montage, and Baccarin praised his professionalism throughout.
In the funny scene, the couple dress up in various clothing to honor the various seasons and holidays that occur throughout the year.
They celebrate Valentine’s Day, International Women’s Day, and Christmas, among other national holidays.
In 2017, Conan O’Brien interviewed Baccarin about the film, during which she discussed the X-rated two-day shoot.

She responded: “[The film] was really fun… minus the two days of sex scenes, it was wonderful, the whole experience.”
The Greenland star went on to say, “It took two days to shoot the sex scene since I believe we had been making beautiful love for a year. So it was all about the holidays, you know. “So we dressed differently for each person.”
Baccarin told People magazine in 2018 that Deadpool’s costume did little for Reynolds.
“I keep saying that kissing him in that mask is like kissing a giant latex condom,” she said.
“It basically just smells like rubber the entire time.”
That’s not what you want to hear from the person you’re kissing, right?
However, Baccarin has stated that her co-star’s professionalism made the entire situation acceptable.
“There is a lot of laughter. “That stuff is always uncomfortable,” she told Collider in 2015. “But, we made the best of it.”
Baccarin added, “By the end of the day, you’re like, ‘Okay, where do you want me, how do you-?’” You’re spreading your legs and saying whatever; it’s just that you become used to each other.”
Okay, I’m not exactly a kissing expert; in college, a friend overheard a girl I kissed at a party declare she ‘just had the worst kiss in her life’… but she didn’t call me a condom, did she? Yates 1-0 Reynolds.
