Actors DAVID SOUL, JACLYN SMITH and TONY CURTIS have paid tribute to late TV legend AARON SPELLING, who died on Friday (23JUN06).
The Hollywood producer, who was responsible for a host of shows including CHARLIE’S ANGELS, DYNASTY, STARSKY & HUTCH and BEVERLY HILLS, 90210, passed away in his Los Angeles home following a stroke.
Former Angel Smith laments, "Aaron’s contributions in television are unequalled. To me, he was a dear friend and a truly genuine human being." Starsky & Hutch star Soul says, "Spelling was one of those characters who doesn’t exist too much in Hollywood anymore. He created a family of actors. He was television. He was an ideas man." While Curtis, who starred in Spelling’s 1970s TV series VEGA$, recalls, "Aaron loved Las Vegas. I got the impression he wanted to live here."
