That seems like a stretch. She's not really in league with Williams and Bacall

There's no law that you have to find 3 celebs. Plus that guy was a no name small time racer

Make that four - Michael died too.

To see for yourself, go to

and draw a line after every third name listed. See?

Martel is virtually unknown.
I am a pretty serious Star Trek fan (as well as other science fiction) and I never could have guessed the name of the actress who played T'Pring.
I think you are stretching it a bit here.

Does that count as three?

I remember seeing her playing (I think) a member of the French resistance in Hogan's Heroes as well. She did a lot of bit parts, and I never knew what happened to her after that. Maybe she got out of the business.
I was sorry to hear of her passing...

Death occurs. That's all.
