Items that people couldn't part with after the death of a world-famous celebrity (6 photos)

The rich and famous have their own quirks.





Which they demonstrate not only during life, but also after leaving the line. One of these is things that turned out to be so important for actors, singers and politicians that they were buried along with these sacred objects.

1. Tony Curtis and a Solid Supply



Tony Curtis is an American film actor who enjoyed widespread popularity in the late 1950s and early 1960s. His most famous works include the films Some Like It Hot, Sweet Smell of Success, and The Great Race. When the actor died in 2010 from cardiac arrest, he was buried with an iPhone, his favorite hat, driving gloves, a solid supply of sugar substitute, and pain medication.

2. Humphrey Bogart and a symbol for two





This actor became a star thanks to his roles as Detective Spade in The Maltese Falcon and Rick in Casablanca. In his first film, To Have and Have Not (1944), Lauren Bacall told Humphrey Bogart, "You can whistle, can't you, Steve? Just put your lips together and... blow." Once, during their whirlwind romance and subsequent marriage, he gave his beloved a gold whistle keychain in honor of their meeting. When the actor died in 1957, the flask was buried with him. Bacall had engraved the phrase, "If you need anything, just whistle."

3. Frank Sinatra and his favorite drink



The charming and versatile Frank Sinatra, famous for his virtuoso technique of intonation phrasing and the velvety timbre of his voice, loved whiskey on the rocks. After his death, his family decided to honor his habit by placing a flask in his coffin. He also added a stash of dimes in case he wanted to call from there to here.

4. Elizabeth Taylor and a special letter



Although the love affair between the recognized queen of Hollywood of her time and Richard Burton was widely known and even called the drama of the century, and their love letters were quoted in various biographies, the woman carefully kept this letter to herself. The love note was sent three days before Burton's death in 1984, and Taylor received it when she came home from the funeral of her ex-husband. Liz carefully kept it by her bed for the rest of her life and ordered that it be buried with her.

5. Andy Warhol and the current fragrance



The artist did not plan to take anything with him. The decision came spontaneously: during the funeral, one of his friends threw a bottle of Estee Lauder perfume into the grave. The reason for the choice remains a mystery. Since Warhol used fragrances for no more than three months, and then placed them in a kind of catalog associated with certain periods of creativity.
