Giselle Blondet

Her first daughter is now a chef who has been on Despierta America. Her remains were cremated in accordance with her wishes but remained unclaimed at the Chapel of the Pines Crematory. However, in 1998, her career took off internationally when she was given the opportunity to co-host Univision's show Despierta America alongside Raul Gonzalez, Fernando Arau, Ana Maria Canseco, Neyda Sandoval and occasional host Samy, the famous Cuban hair-dresser and television personality. After divorcing Trucco, she has remained single, and she says she wants to dedicate her free time to her kids only. She died April 30, 1965 from cardiac arrest during surgery for a stomach ulcer in Hollywood, California. But this relationship also ran into trouble and they divorced in the middle 1990s. Her alcoholism continued unabated. In 1989, she married producer Harold Trucco, and they had a son and a daughter. She survived but her face was badly scarred, and ruled out any chance of a comeback.

In 1987, her romance with actor Raul Rosado was well publicized. In 1950, Chandler was severely burned in an apartment fire, caused by her falling asleep while smoking. Blondet spent the rest of the '80s participating in different tv shows, soap operas and mini-series, as well as in some theatre plays. She was hospitalised several times but was unable to gain control over her life. She divorced Abreu in 1982, and by then, magazines such as Vea, Teve Guia, etc etc, started talking of a supposed rivalty between her and Millie Aviles, another young, Puerto Rican actress who resembled Blondet pshysically. By this time she was battling alcoholism and her acting career declined. In 1981, she married the famous Bolivian actor Luis Abreu, with whom she had no children. Among her stage successes of the 1930s were Pride and Prejudice in 1935, and a reprise of her role in Outward Bound in 1938.

She had a daughter from her first marriage, previous to her becoming famous. She achieved more successes in A House Divided (1931) and Christopher Strong (1932) and began dividing her time between Hollywood and Broadway. As a soap opera actress, she was on many of Puerto Rico's soaps of the late 1970s, and the early 1980s. Once again, Chandler received plaudits for her performance. Blondet became famous at around the age of 14, when she began to appear on Puerto Rico's telenovelas. Chandler did not want to play the role for which she is probably best remembered, as Mina Harker in Dracula as she wanted to play Alice in Alice in Wonderland, but this part was given to Charlotte Henry, and Chandler, disappointed, joined David Manners and Bela Lugosi in "Dracula". Giselle Blondet, (born January 9, 1966) in New York City, United States, is a Puerto Rican actress and show host. Chandler, with her blonde hair and ethereal quality was considered to be perfectly cast, and she received critical praise for her performance.

The unusual story told of a group of passengers on an ocean liner who gradually realise that they are all dead. She made her film debut in 1927 in The Music Master and in 1930 joined Leslie Howard, Douglas Fairbanks Jr., and Beryl Mercer for the film version of the stage success Outward Bound. Within a few years she was playing Shakespearean roles opposite such highly regarded performers as John Barrymore. Born in Charleston, South Carolina, Chandler began her acting career on Broadway in 1917.
