Jerry Lewis, 85, was forced to cancel a show in Australia because of health reasons, the Associated Press reports. The actor had planned to appear Friday night in Sydney for a show with the Muscular Dystrophy Foundation Australia. But according to the foundation’s CEO, David Jack, the actor, who has struggled with various health issues in the past few years, was “not well enough to take the stage.” No other details are known at this time.

Clarence Clemens, Peter Falk, Jerry Lewis— they always go in threes…
Jerry Lewis is NOT dead you twit!!
Michael Jackson, Farrah, who was the third?
Billy Mays
Here’s hoping he is not the third passing of the group. He is a true film legend and a great humanitarian.
Humanitarian? Joe Lewis, his son who hates him and who Jerry tortured, would challenge your claim.
