His second and third wives were actresses, but cannot confirm Kim Schmidt as a professional actress. Will replace this info with employment cited in Hollywood Babylon (art gallery employee).

the term 'suicide pact' suggests that his wife was a willing participant. I have never seen this suggested anywhere. Can it be confirmed?— Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.99.134.241 ( talk) 22:34, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

Maybe I missed this in the article. How is this name pronounced? My mom had a friend nicknamed Gig and she pronounces it "jidge," rhymes with fridge. Just curious. Never heard of this guy until I read the article on the Osborne Apartments today. 67.189.148.191 ( talk) 21:36, 23 December 2020 (UTC)
about this guy's one and only edit: http://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Gig_Young&diff=75414359&oldid=72758665 It really changes the whole ending of the story of Gig Young's suicid, doesn't it? -- Vlad| -> 22:32, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
His suicide at The Osborne, 205 West 57 St. is correct. I was the v/p of the building at the time, and was sitting in my apt. across the courtyard from his apt. when I heard the shots. The super Gus came to me, and told me that a gocery order was about to be delivered at Gig's door, and at the knock these shots were heard. He asked what he should do, should he go in with his master key to see what was up. I said call the president of the building, Mike, who worked at Macy's. He did, and I spoke to him too, and he said do nothing until he gets home from work. Privacy issues. And so the door wasn't opened for several hours. I've often wondered if they were immediately dead, and could have been helped, but I don't know what the autopsy showed. The police found evidence of drugs and jewelry and gun paraphernalia, but it was all generally hushed up. JohnClarknew 20:13, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
My involvement with this is totally peripheral. Kim Schmidt may have had German parents but she went to school in Melbourne, Australia and she was, never an actor although she may have appeared in a film. In the late 1970s she lived in Hong Kong and we were on a friendly but not intimate basis. She was very much the sexy flirt and had an on-and-off relationship with Gig Young who, she told me, was teaching in an actor's school in New York. It was not smooth going and she was, at one time, practically living on tranquilizers. Her death (murder/suicide) three weeks after the marriage shook me. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.209.170.2 ( talk) 06:15, 25 December 2011 (UTC)
Wikipedia, you said on the day he died, Gig Young taped an episode of the Joe Franklin TV show. After that you said he went home and committed the murder suicide. I am writing this because uou said,"the show exists and is in the Joe Franklin Archives".
Well, I searched

OK, why in the heck was he buried in Western North Carolina after his death? There is no mention to any ties to NC that I can find. Was some of his family from there or something? -- Brownings ( talk) 09:49, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
This is really fishy: if he was a Pharmacist's Mate in the Coast Guard from 1941 to 1945, how was he able to make movies in 1942 and 1943? Chris the speller yack 06:04, 4 January 2013 (UTC)
His career was promoted when he changed his hairstyle to a Cary Grant-look in the beginning of 1953. 173.72.63.150 ( talk) 01:37, 5 November 2013 (UTC)MisterBluster
