Mine Field Celebrity Deathday Thread

[CaptainWacky]

Celebrity Big Brother used to get actual good celebrity housemates and he was one of them!



I love that Coolio was being the voice of reason.

He was great on the Surreal Life. He got so drunk he peed in the living room!

The potted plant in the corner deserved it! It made a remark!

RIP

 

[CaptainWacky]

Sounds like he killed himself.

[Dr Dave]

He was great on the Surreal Life. He got so drunk he peed in the living room!

Everybody needs a hobby!

 

[CaptainWacky]

This thread combined with another one due to the power of death!

I did a search for Death threads and the results looked like the track listing on the back of a Morrissey album.

But not as racist.

I was going to post a thread for him but I probably would have just made some "to me" joke like literally everyone else has. So it's better than I didn't. Still sad!

Aretha Franklin: https://www.nytimes.com/2018/08/16/obituaries/aretha-franklin-dead.html

So I turned on the BBC news at six and the didn't have the usual open. It was just the newsreader sitting behind the desk looking somber without any music and she said "THE QUEEN...of soul Aretha Franklin has died." So I totally thought the Queen had died for a few seconds there because I don't remember them doing this for any other dead celebrity.
