French film legend Brigitte Bardot has died at the age of 91, her foundation announced Sunday. Bardot, a cinema icon of the 1950s and 60s known for films like 'And God Created Woman,' retired from acting to dedicate her life to animal welfare and her foundation. She had been hospitalized in recent months. While celebrated for her acting and activism, Bardot also faced controversy in later years for fines related to inciting racial hatred and homophobic slurs.
