She was the voice of the Sunday Star's Stargazing, where she demonstrated a slick capability for deflating the pomposity of celebrity, plus the sharp sense of the absurd that characterizes the finest Canadian humour.
In her final, unfinished column which appeared in the Star yesterday, we see Arpe at her finest: mocking Harry Styles, making fun of Alce Baldwin and scoffing at Tayler Swift.
In homage to Arpe's great talent, Jenny Villamere presents these celebrity digs in her honor. Get ready to switch gears, turn that frown upside down and enjoy some celebrity skewering that we hope Arpe would have appreciated:
Jimmy Fallon completes a graceful pirouette in appreciation of the Rangers' figure skating prowess.
Patrick Dempsey mistakes spray snow for hairspray, tries to excuse error by dawning dark classes, feigning failing vision.
Willow Smith searches in vain for her lost childhood.
Perry Farrell campaigns for a coveted celebrity cameo in 'Zoolander 2.'
"This is my new girlfriend. I call her 'Paula II.' She brings me great joy, as my face expresses." - Robin Thicke

Ms. Arpe, you will be missed.
