Zsa Zsa Gabor, the Hungarian beauty who some called the OG Kim Kardashian, is dead just shy of 100 years old ... TMZ has learned.
We've learned Gabor died Sunday after suffering a heart attack. She was rushed to the hospital where she was pronounced dead.
Zsa Zsa endured a number of health problems in the last several years. Her right leg had to be partially amputated in 2011 after it got infected. Her husband, Frederic Prinz Von Anhalt, held birthday parties for Gabor the last few years, but she was so sick visitors were not allowed in her bedroom.
Zsa Zsa and her younger sister, Eva, were socialites in Beverly Hills for decades. Zsa Zsa had nearly 80 tv and film acting credits, but most often she played herself.
She was married to Conrad Hilton, Paris Hilton's great grandfather, from 1942-1947.
'Blow' Star Jennifer Gimenez I Begged George Jung to Get Clean But He Blew Me Off
Jennifer Gimenez came off the set of "Blow" as an addict, but turned herself into a rehab guru -- and says she would've helped George Jung get clean too ... if he wanted it.
The actress, who starred in the film about the famous drug smuggler, tells us she got word from someone in George's camp last year telling her he was drinking a lot ... and they were worried he'd get busted if he didn't get treatment.
Watch -- it sounds like the wheels were in motion, but then came to a hard stop when George got busted last week for a parole violation.

Marilyn Monroe Final Script Sold with Her Notes ... Spelling Doesn't Count
Marilyn Monroe's handwritten notes on how to act sexier are now in the hands of one lucky fan.
Marilyn's script for her final movie, "Something's Got to Give" ... was sold by Nate D Sanders Auctions on Thursday for $25k. The document is awesome because it includes notes she wrote to help nail her lines -- things like "lean towards him" and "leeding him on." Spelling wasn't really her thing ... not that anyone complained.
MM was famously fired from the romantic comedy, co-starring Dean Martin, in June 1962 ... reportedly for being disruptive. She died 2 months later.
Fun fact: The film was never completed with a new actress because Dean refused to do it without his original leeding lady.

Jerry Heller Nephew Wants to Breathe New Life Into N.W.A. Suit
Jerry Heller's nephew wants a judge to let him create and run an estate for his late uncle ... purely for the purpose of taking down Ice Cube and Dr. Dre in court.
Lawyers for Terry Heller filed docs Tuesday asking he be named executor of Jerry's will -- all because he plans to pursue the defamation suit against everyone behind "Straight Outta Compton."
Sources close to Terry tell TMZ ... all of Jerry's assets were already put into a private trust before his death, and the only reason he's doing this is to change the name of the plaintiff from Jerry to Jerry's estate ... 'cause dead guys can't sue.
You'll recall ... Jerry sued Dre, Cube and other producers of 'Compton' for $110 mil last year, claiming the film falsely made him look like "the bad guy." A judge has tossed most of the case since then, but there's still 2 questionable scenes on the table.
Looks like Jerry's fight to defend his name will live on ... even after him.

George Jung Back in the Can After 2 Years of Freedom
George Jung, the guy Johnny Depp played in "Blow," is back in jail for violating his parole, but he's blaming it all on his manager.
Sources close to the infamous cocaine smuggler tell us George took a trip to San Diego to make a little cash for appearing at an event. We're told he couldn't get a hold of his parole officer, but Jung says his manager insisted it'd be okay ... since it was only a 4 hour work trip.
That wasn't the case. He was arrested Tuesday when he got home to Sacramento.
According to jail records ... George, who was released in 2014 after serving 20 years for running drugs, was booked in Sacramento County jail on Dec. 6. He's not eligible for bail, given his record, so he's still behind bars until his next court date.

'Django Unchained' Actress Leaking Audio Was Unethical ... Commission Rules
The cop who cited a "Django Unchained" actress for having sex in public has been called out for leaking audio of the incident, and it's gonna cost him some dough.
The L.A. Ethics Commission ruled Tuesday former LAPD Sergeant Jim Parker broke city rules by releasing the audio to TMZ following the 2014 incident with Daniele Watts, who Parker busted for having sex with her BF in their car in broad daylight.
The Commission said Parker was sharing confidential info related to the case when he released it, so he'll now have to pay a $500 fine ... instead of the max $10,000 he was facing.
You'll recall ... when Parker and his partner responded to the scene, Watts played the race card big time. She later apologized to the officers, and pled no contest to the charges.
