I don't shed a tear for celebrities who meet their demise due to self-abusive or moronic behavior.

Pride and Originality. The industry is dead - but that's another topic.

It is interesting how we can bond with certain celebrities. Johnny Carson's death hit home because I grew up watching him. Don Ho, because his cheesy daytime show brought me though a long miserable hospitalization. Dean Martin who was a really cool "regular" guy on and off screen. And Slim Pickens for riding that A-Bomb out the chute! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ueuauKKjPZI

I was sad when George Burns and Bob Hope passed on. Not because they didn't have long and fruitful lives because they did as they both reach 100, but it went to prove that not even they were immortal.

John Ritter. So young, so sad.

John Candy died from a heart attack on the set while filming a movie.

Now if Britany Spears kicked off i wouldnt shed a tear. Her kids are better off without their mom anyway.

Yep, my first thought was also:


John Candy

There are many movie and TV actors that have been missed due to varying reasons. Of the top, Heather O'Rourke from the Poltergeist films and Brandon Lee.

Johnny Carson for sure. I also grew up watching him, and his passing closed the book on a landmark period of late night television.

Darrin McGavin (he played the father in Christmas Story).

I also miss Karen Carpenter (BTW I met her psychiatrist once). But the one that almost knocked me off the couch when I heard of his passing was John Lennon.

There's quite a few suicides mixed in there I see.

So many, but certainly....the Duke, John Wayne.

At the moment Heath Ledger because it seems almost random, Brandon Lee at least did martial arts stunts which put his life more at risk.
Also John Candy, I think his career could've gone on for a while longer had he shed some weight.

Marty Feldman.

Gilda Radner.

Phil Hartman.

Groucho Marx wasn't young when he died but he left a huge hole in the world of comedy.

Andy Kaufman.

Steve McQueen.

Kenny McCormick.

heath ledger, because its just so strange, i never in a million years figured he would be dead anytime soon.

sir edmund hillary, because he was my hero.

dont laugh but dale earnhardt, he was so big and its like he wasnt allowed to die, it was so weird, before that race they interviewed him and then 3 hours later he was dead.

Phil Hartman (shot by his wife), John Ritter, Chris Farley. I wasn't aware that John Candy died (shows what I know). Not Hollywood, but "Dimebag" Darrell Abbot the guitarist for Pantera, who was shot by a former marine during a concert.

 

[LK5GB7]

Evel Knievel.

nooooo


its really crappy, but in our lifetime we are going to see many good actors and celebrities pass. only to be replaced by the next in line.. a never ending cycle



p.s. dimebag was killed by a Marine? i never found out what that whole ordeal was over

 

[AvPD]

Totally forgot about Phil Hartman, being a fan of Futurama and The Simpsons I'm occasionally reminded of his abscence. Also, not really Hollywood but Marvin Gaye.

It hasn't happened yet but the one that will hit me the hardest will be Lenard Nimoy. I should try to shake his hand and thank him soon.
