Name a celeb you'd like to see resurface.

Three I can think of:

Bambi Woods: Porn screen name of the star of Debbie Does Dallas. Rumor for years was that she'd died of a drug overdose in 1986. This story sounded almost too plausible, and it was investigated: no evidence was found to support it. So, she may very well still be around. Her story would be interesting to hear.

Bobbie Gentry: A great songwriter, and ultra-reclusive. After the male-dominated business got over her beauty and past the success of Ode To Billie Joe (one of my favorites), they found a talented woman who had some business savvy as well. Try finding info on her whereabouts; good luck. I think her last public performance was in 1981 after having unofficially retired from music in the late 70s. She was married to Mr. Harrah (casinos) for a few months and had her own spot in the former Frontier Hotel in Vegas. There's also a rumor that she's held onto her fortune and is now (or was once) part owner of the Phoenix Suns.

Sarah Holcomb: Comedic actress (cute, too) who co-stared in Animal House and Caddyshack. That's a damn good resume, albeit short as hell. A rumor emerged that she had a psychotic breakdown during her career and had to be institutionalized. It is strongly believed that the 2004 movie Stateside was about her life, though to my knowledge this has never been confirmed. But, check this: her real-life brother, David, is in the film, and "S.H." is thanked in the credits. Also, some say Caddyshack is referenced in the movie.
 
Mia Sara

Madeline Zima

Tanya Allen

Elizabeth Berkley





Bring anyone of these back to life as well!

Shauna Grant

Marilyn Monroe

Sharon Tate

Jayne Mansfield

Natalie Wood
 
I want John Candy back. Hell, a zombie John Candy would be funnier than 3/4ths of the comedians in movies now.

"Those aren't pillows..."

"munchblaaarrrghhhmunchgnaw"
 
Andrew McCarthy

Jami Gertz

(Robert Downey, Jr. and James Spader moved on from the cast of Less Than Zero)
 
Rob Lowe

(last I heard he really thought that he was Casey Anthony's attorney but not in the Daniel Day-Lewis method style acting way, more like he couldn't believe that a certain QB of the Broncos made it to the playoffs last season)
 
See, nobody knows without googling.

Pretend to know where they are without such an aid.
 

Sorry - I read that as "Stallone".

Yeah, he's elusive...but at the 2006 Grammys, and had a 2011 album.

Ed King: missing from Skynyrd since 1996. Retired.

For those not in the know, that's his voice counting "One, two, three..." and his opening guitar riff on Sweet Home Alabama. He also co-wrote it. Also a founding member of Strawberry Alarm Clock, and co-wrote Incense and Peppermints.
 
Linda Fiorentino.

Jennifer Connelly is still around, and still working, but I don't see her nearly enough these days.

Well, duh. I mean, who wouldn't have instantly connected those two songs?

That's pretty goddam random.

I hate to answer this question, because I have to assume these celebrities know what they're doing in staying out of sight. Do we really want Harper Lee to write another novel at this point? She said what she needed to say in one book; I wouldn't want her to feel obligated to publish another one.

She won't be writing another book as long as Truman Capote remains dead.
 
Jami Gertz

Speaking of her, remember that sitcom she was on a few years ago, Still Standing? This is what the daughter on that show looks like now...
