Im singing my song for you reporter singer, dancer, actress was a hollywood triple threat, an americas sweetheart. Her film career began at the age of 16 after being spotted in a beauty pageant. Her star officially launched just a few years later after a spirited performance opposite gene kelly and in singing in the rain. They locked me in a big old studio and for three months i had five different teachers one for tap, jazz, modern and then i would work, work, work until i would fall apart. Reporter other notable roles followed including 1957 tammy and the bachelor which resulted in her number one hit song tammy. She played opposite gregory peck in how the west was won and performance in unsinkable molly brown earned her an oscar nomination. Beloved on screen at times her life offscreen overshadowed her success had two children with her first husband. Producer todd fisher and actress and author Carrie Fisher who died one day before her mother. In 1959 the marriage ended in a highly publicized divorce when fisher left reynolds to mary her close friend elizabeth taylor. Reynolds was able to joke about the marriage years later. I was a simple little girl and he fell madly in love with elizabeth. Now i understand. You know, so many years later and its in the past. Reporter her second and third marriages also ended in divorce, each time causing reynolds financial pain. However, she had been quietly collecting hollywood memorabilia over the years that would prove to be a wise investment. In 2011, reynolds sold Marilyn Monroes white subway dress in an auction for 4. 6 million. She also never quit performing, though she stepped away from film for most of her career, she continued to entertain on broadway stages and in las vegas nightclubs. In addition, reynolds had several tv roles over the years notably playing liberaces mother behind the candle obru. Her wide away of work was recognized in 2015 when the Screen Actors Guild recognized her with a Lifetime Achievement award. Reynolds said she loved every minute she spent in show business in her biography called unsinkable. Her personal and professional resiliency. I paid 25,000 bucks for that sucker. Reporter that spark and sense of humor along with her talent that reynolds will be remembered for. I love you. Good night, everybody. Thank you. And lets read now from Debbie Reynolds last facebook post. Thank you to everyone who has embraced the gifts and talents of my beloved and amazing daughter. Im thankful for your thoughts and prayers that are now guiding her to her next stop. The irony now Debbie Reynolds seemingly inseparable with carrie joins her on that next stop. Didnt think we would see you this morning, Paul Vercammen on news like this. Lets talk about it with larry hackett. Former editor and nischelle turner. Lets listen to Debbie Reynolds in her own words talking about what was a very loving and also very complex relationship with her own daughter. Its very hard when your child doesnt want to talk to you when you want to talk to them and you want to touch them and hold them. It was a total estrangement. She didnt talk to me for probably ten years. That was the most difficult time of all. But, clearly, a mothers love is like no other. They reconciled. She dies 24 hours after losing her daughter. What thoughts, larry . You know, when we were talking yesterday about Carrie Fisher it wasnt so much that she was hollywood royalty that made her interesting. She was like you. She battled her demons and had a connection to the people. No way i can embellish the irony of what happened here. Clearly along the very same lines. This is not about two movie stars. This is about a mothers love for her daughter through thick and thin through all of these difficulties and appears at that last moment that she died of a broken heart. Again, i cannot embellish this story line. Thats what the connection is. Yes, she is fames and, yes, we have known her for 70 years. That familiar relationship that people can relate to. That is why people are responding, not because they were famous because they were human. She was human as we would say. She didnt steal it. Carrie fisher didnt steal it. She even talked about the men driving her into financial ruin. And postcards from the edge was written by Carrie Fisher. It was sort of a biography and about their relationship but loosely based. Was the conflict between them overblown in a sense . Well, you heard Debbie Reynolds just say carrie didnt speak to her for ten years. No, i dont think the conflict between them was overblown. I think they had a lot of very tough times in their relationship. They laid a lot of that out. But they earned each other. They worked their way back to being mother and daughter and being inseparable and to loving each other. I sat with this for a while last night trying to figure out, what do you say about this . How do you explain it . I dont think you do because i think there are some things that just cant be explained. I think it is what everyone says it is. Ive been telling people it is heartbreaking and haunting and also something very beautiful about all of this. I really am a person who talks for a living and i am at a loss when it comes to this situation. They both wrote a lot of chapters in hollywood. I think i said that last night and its just very interesting that were talking about this, the two of them. 24 hours apart from each other now possibly, theyre together, again. A lot of prisms that you can see this through. One that is going to be examined a lot is one through feminism and their roles generationally. Debbie reynolds was 19 years old when she made singing in the rain. Do you know how old Carrie Fisher was when she made star wars . 19 years old. How they represent the different generations and what they went through, the struggles. Debbie much more 1950s and 60s way and carrie going through them with the drug issues and the mental health. Yet, despite all that, they had this bond together. I think theyre going to represent strength for women and its just going to be a fascinating thing to study. That is so interesting. That is so interesting, larry, you said that. When we were just watching that earlier clip of Debbie Reynolds dancing with the two men. Look at her going toe for toe, with these men on screen. She learned how to dance on that movie. Not only two men, think about mark hamill and harrison ford. The paraalism goes on and on. Both broke through in ways that was never expected of them. Lets listen to Carrie Fisher in her own words speaking with oprah about growing up with a famous mother. My mother would get up in the morning as my mother and then she would go into this big closet she had. And youd go in on this end anded there be the shirts and shoes and maybe some slacks and then youd turn left and its skirts and dresses. And the other end probably night gowns and robes. She would go in on this end as my mom and shed come out the other end as Debbie Reynolds. It was like a car wash for celebrities. Thats Old School Hollywood right there. Is there any, is there anyone, any group, any family left in hollywood like those two . Like those two . Its the end of an era. This is the golden age of hollywood were seeing. In a little different way. Maybe Angelina Jolie and join they have the push pull, but heads and they are both big stars. Those two, im not sure if there is really anyone left. I mean, there could be a new generation coming. But, you know, Debbie Reynolds like larry said, weve known her for 70 years. Carrie fisher was in the business for, you know, 40 plus. And they. Wow. I think this could be an end of an era. I agree with that, too. I cant think of anybody where the public and private the performances and their private lives mingle as much as these two do. Yes, angela jolie, but its nothing like this. It really is. Reminded me of mommy dearest. Joan crawford would go in the closet and the scene of the movie where shes leaving and it says hollywood royalty. We have to leave it there. Thank you, guys. We could talk all day about it. We could and we will a lot more on the show. But we have a lot of news to get to this morning. We want to turn to politics. We want to talk about the israeli Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu and john kerry against each other in speeches. Netanyahu said kerry was playing lip service to palestinian attacks. Cnns Oren Lieberman in jerusalem with more this morning. Hi. Hi, don. Prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu firing back after john kerrys speech and the Obama Administration vision for middle east peace. Between netanyahu and kerry deteriorating so rappidly in it final weeks. Friends need to tell each other the hard truths. Reporter a warning that a twostate solution is now in jeopardy. The twostate solution is the only way to achieve a just and lasting peace between israelis and palestinians. Reporter kerry blasting israeli Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu accusing him of undermining peace efforts. The israeli Prime Minister publicly supports a twostate solution. His Current Coalition is the most right wing in israeli history with an agenda driven by the most extreme elements. Reporter netanyahu firing back, calling the speech a disappointment a bias attack that paid lip service to terror attacks by palestinians. Israelis do not need to be lectured about the importance of peace by foreign leaders. Reporter despite repeated denials orchestrating fridays United Nations condemning israeli settlements in the west bank and jerusalem. The United States organized, advanced and brought this resolution. Reporter kerry vehemently defending the Obama Administration refusal to veto the u. N. Resolution. No American Administration has done more for israels security than barack obamas. We cannot properly defend and protect israel if we allow a viable twostate solution to be destroyed before our own eyes. Reporter president elect donald trump weighing in on kerrys speech from florida. I think it set us back, but well see what happens after january 20th, right . Netanyahu saying hell work with president elect donald trump to try to repeal the u. N. Security Council Resolution and try to undo some of the damage here. These two leaders netanyahu and president elect trump sending tweets back and forltforth. Hang on, january 20th is coming. Netanyahu saying in short, thank you. Trying to point out obamas support of israel and his point there is that these two leaders obama and netanyahu signed a 38 billion military aid deal, the largest in u. S. History. We are seeing socmedia diplomacy playing out between the president elect and the Prime Minister of israel. Thank you very much.

S. israeli relations have hit rock bottom after the path to peace in the middle east and fallout condemning jerusalem settleme settlements, why are these allies so publicly . Contributor to atlantic peterbiner and james woolsey. Senior adviser to the trump campaign. Thank you, gentlemen, for joining us. What is your reaction to the secretarys speech . I think netanyahu had the better of these exchanges. This is not really about one state versus two state solutions. This is about whether the palestinians accept the right to exist. In current circumstances, they dont. Israeli arabs, muslim usually citizens of israel about onesixth of the israeli population can go to bed at night without fear that someone is going to bash in their front door and going to kill them. They had their own members in the knesset they have Supreme Court justices and their own publications. They lead a very reasonable life, particularly for the middle east. That sort of life is not possible for a jew living in the west bank governed by the palestinians. They will be killed. And if you even sell property to an israeli, youll get killed. So, theres nothing much that can be done in this world of one and twostate solutions and compromise. The secretary addressed that, ambassador, in his speech condemning any sort of violence against israel or anyone. They always do. And then you come down to boycotts and so on. Theres always an effort coming from the palestinians to effectively get rid of israel. So, peter, to you, the question that ambassador woolsey brings up is an important one. Where is the palestinian leadership condemination of this violen violence. Condemn any part of violence on the israelis. Do we need to see more of that on the part of palestinian leaders. To say the palestinians dont accept, yes, the plo recognized in 1993. But not as a jewish state. The point is not as a jewish state. But, yes, in fact, israel at that point did not ask the palestinians to recognize israel as a jewish state. Never defined what it means to be a jewish state and the United States did not. The United States did not recognize israel as a jewish state. Egypt did not recognize israel as a jewish state. This is a new request that Benjamin Netanyahu made that was not made by previous Prime Ministers because Netanyahu Haas hostile idea to the twostate solution. Under no circumstance could he envision israel removing his troops west of the river. I think its nonsense. Jim, the claim that palestinians would inevitably kill jews in the west bank. I have jewish friends, who live in the west bank. Frankly a racist claim to suggest that palestinians would inherently kill jews. Not if you read the newspapers. Some commit terrorism and many dont. Peter beinart, to my question, does there need to be more from the palestinian leaders in terms of condemning the violence . Absolutely. Look, i think that was for me. One thing they could do ambassador, lets let people beinart answer that. Let him finish his thought, ambassador. Actually, again, Mahmoud Abbas has again and again accepted israels right to exist and land swaps in the west bank, too. Tremendous problem. Then when any possibility comes up such as the clinton parameters. Such as the clinton parameters back in the last days of the clinton administration, which was a compromise. It was tough from israels point of view, but the knesset accepted it but the palestinians would not. That was the last time we had a real chance for a twostate solution. Israel accepted it. The palestinians didnt and they lie about it. The palestinians lie about it all the time. Look, we could, i could debate you on 2000, but we can go more recently. If you want to look at 2013, 2014. The kerry the Obama Administration the single biggest obstacle were israeli settlements. The Obama Administration has nothing to say about has nothing, has nothing to say about any of this that is not propalestinian. Sometimes its quietly propalestinian. Sometimes its blatancy, sir. Lets listen to what secretary kerry said about condemning that violence in his speech yesterday. And the most recent wave of palestinian violence has included hundreds of terrorist attacks in the past year, including stabbings, shootings, vehicular attacks and bombings. Many by individuals who have been radicalized by social media. Yet the murders of innocence are still glorified on fattah websites including showing attackers next to palestinian leaders following attacks. Ambassador woolsey, he did it just there. He did right then. But that is not what shows up in palestinian papers. Thats not what shows up usually in statements from the plo. Certainly not what shows up in anything coming from out of godda. Not showing up from the missiles coming out of gaza against isra israel. Carry flags saying, dont worry, were in favor of a twostate solution. This is, this is really nonsense that the palestinians do not accept israels right to exist and they are now going at it through boycotts and devestme s.
