HEE-HAW TWIN DIES

HEE-HAW star JON HAGER of comedy duo THE HAGER TWINS has died. He was 67.
Hager was found dead in his Nashville, Tennessee apartment on Friday (09Jan09), after apparently passing away in his sleep.
The star is said to have suffered poor health since his identical twin brother, Jim Hager, died in May 2008.
The twins were part of the original cast of the hit TV variety show, which debuted in 1969 and ran until 1993. The show combined music and comedy and hosted performances from legends including Johnny Cash and Ray Charles.
