Lauren Bacall has passed away aged 89
Many famous names have paid their respects to Bacall including Barbara Streisand who gave a statement to Entertainment Weekly.
She said: "First Robin who was a genius and now Lauren. It was my privilege to have known her, to have acted with her, and to have directed her. And, most of all, to have had her as a wise and loving friend.
"She was an original. Even with all those great films we can visit again and again, she will be missed".
Alyssa Milano, Jenny McCarthy and Larry King were among those who chose to pay tribute to the star via Twitter.
Rest with the angels, Lauren Bacall...
