Full Name: Sári Gábor
Profession: Actress

Biography: Zsa Zsa Gabor was an actress known for her glamorous persona and multiple marriages. She became a symbol of Hollywood celebrity in the mid-20th century.

Gabor moved to the United States in 1941 after competing in the Miss Hungary pageant. She began her acting career in the 1950s, appearing in films such as "Moulin Rouge" (1952) and "Touch of Evil" (1958). Gabor's on-screen roles were often overshadowed by her off-screen personality and witty remarks.

Throughout her life, Gabor married nine times. Her husbands included hotel magnate Conrad Hilton and actor George Sanders. She became famous for her quips about marriage and men, often appearing on talk shows to share her views on relationships.

In 1989, Gabor made headlines when she slapped a police officer in Beverly Hills—an incident which resulted in a brief jail sentence. She also faced health challenges in her later life, including partial paralysis from a car accident in 2002, and suffered financial setbacks, reportedly losing millions in Bernie Madoff's investment scheme.
