That's pretty creepy isn't it apparently I posted that photo on Friday afternoon only hours before he died - I don't even know why I picked him he was just someone that came to mind.  RIP Adam West.

As his sidekick Robin woud have said back in that 60s television series  "Holy Coincidences Batman".....

Well done Sheba I wondered if I would have to give a few clues. I remember her in the 1964 movie "Of Human Bondage" Now who do you have.

Marilyn Pauline "Kim" Novak (born February 13, 1933) is a retired American film and television actress, currently engaged as a visual artist.

She began her film career in 1954 after signing with Columbia Pictures. There, she became a successful actress, starring in a string of movies, among them the critically acclaimed Picnic (1955). She later starred in such popular successes as The Man with the Golden Arm (1955) and Pal Joey (1957). However, she is perhaps best known today for her performance as Judy Barton in Alfred Hitch****'s classic thriller Vertigo (1958) with James Stewart. Novak was popular in box office popularity polls, and she starred opposite several top leading men of the era, including Fred MacMurray, William Holden, Frank Sinatra, Tyrone Power, Kirk Douglas and Laurence Harvey.

You got it Sheba. over to you.

Ariana Grande-Butera (born June 26, 1993), known as Ariana Grande (/rin rnde/) is an American singer and actress. She began her career in the Broadway musical 13, before landing the role of Cat Valentine in the Nickelodeon television series Victorious in 2009. The show ended after four seasons, and Grande starred in the spinoff, Sam & Cat, which ended in 2014. She has also appeared in other theatre and television roles, and has lent her voice to animated television and films.

Grande's music career began with the soundtrack Music from Victorious (2011). She signed a recording contract with Republic Records and released her debut studio album, Yours Truly, in 2013, which debuted at number one on the US Billboard 200. The album's lead single, "The Way", debuted in the top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100, with critics comparing her wide vocal range to that of Mariah Carey. It was her concert at Manchester where the latest Terrorist attack occurred in the U.K. and later she did another Concert to raise funds for the persons killed and injured in the attack.
