Daily Variety said Gabor’s 60-year career “paved the way for today’s celebrity-obsessed culture.” She was known for her glamour and playing herself, Daily Variety said.
Gabor was too sick to venture out of her bedroom for her own birthday parties, TMZ said.
The Hollywood Reporter said that Gabor – who, along with her sister, Eva, made up the Gabor Sisters – was more known for being a celebrity than her acting credits. Eva Gabor died in 1995.
