What celebrity death hit you the hardest?

Question

I'll probably never get over  Paul Walker . I still can't even watch movies with him in it without crying lol. I was also in a state of shock with  Kobe Bryant  as well. I wasn't a huge fan of his, but I am a huge basketball fan so the respect was there. And of course,  Michael Jackson . I think I played his music nonstop for like a month straight after he died. #gonetoosoon #RIP #ShaTTeredQuestions

Michael Jackson
Whitney Houston
Amy Winehouse
Corey Haim

Not out of particular affecntion to them but how tragic their stories are.

Michael abused all through "childhood" to have his soul sucked out of him then taken out because he was selling Motown artists bavk theor master for $1 after buying them from Sony which put a major bounty on his head.

Whitney just a huge waste.

Amy no one gave a crap about her.

Corey had crap parents then passed around the industry as a kid then discarded like trash and ODed.

Joey Jordison. I first discovered Slipknot when I was 10, messing around in a thrift store when I found one of their CDs. (Iowa) and I remember looking them up on my mom's laptop. I'd seen a picture of Joey and was immediately in love. He was my first celebrity crush. His recent death I cried about for weeks. It almost killed me.
I miss you Joey 💔

Steve Irwin.

It took me a little while to warm up to him, not being used to the Austrailian style and also not liking snakes but he was truly passionate about what he did and that is a necessary prerequisite for greatness.

To paraphrase Riker from Star Trek, another may be able to take over from him but he can never be replaced.

You hit on two of mine with Kobe and MJ. But i gotta admit listening to Prince and the lyrics to his songs got me through some dark nights. As far as just pure sadness i would have to add Princess Diana because of what she meant to this world.

Kaneki05 · Answer

No one really.
1st i don't know them personally / also may not even know there name at all or who they are until it's mentioned by someone or news.
2nd often or not there is something sketchy about them which then irritates me because people just have rose glasses on after there death cough cough MJ.
3rd they often don't really peak my interest in what they did to get famous to the point i am confused by how they got famous.

However there is 1 person that just should of lived forever and never had such a illness that's Hawking.

ItsMeItsMe1989 · Answer

There hasn't really been one that his really hit me too hard, mainly because it's illogical to feel really bad over someone you've never known.

I guess the wrestlers that I've met, when they die, it'll really hit me, since I got to meet them.

Also, I guess you could say, once Eliza Dushku passes away, that'll be tough, since I met her. We talked on the phone, around 8 years ago, on my birthday, she was drunk, and she said "sorry I've been complaining, im drunk, what's up with you", and I said "well, it's my birthday", and she's like "oh shit, im so sorry, and she starts singing the birthday song". lol. While we don't talk anymore, it's going to be weird when she passes away for me.

The only one that MIGHT have been close to me, even though I only ever met him once, like Eliza, is the former weather forecaster, Dick Goddard here in Cleveland, but, I was so young when I met him, so I barely remember it. I have a picture of it

Katy_1788 · Answer

Chester Bennington. I found out at three in the morning and kept listening to their latest album on repeat. Every time i listen to a Linkin Park song, my eyes water.

Nightless · Answer

Stan Lee
I know he technically wasn't a celebrity, but I had a chance to meet the legend himself many years ago. He was the kindest soul I have met and very passionate. I would have loved to have heard more of his stories

strawberreez123 · Answer

I wasn't really into celebrities when I was little, all the celebrities I like now are still alive. But, Cameron Boyce's death and Chadwick Boseman's made me really sad. I wasn't sad at first, but when I watched Jessie and Black Panther again I felt really guilty and upset.

TheBigGuy9 · Answer

His death was hard because he was a decent dude. He didn’t have many followers on Twitter. I think it was under a million. He was a well rounded person with interests in myriad activities. I remember seeing him on Shark Week. Into the Blue was a really good movie he did.
I miss Brian and Dominic in Fast and the Furious. The new stuff is terrible.

boomstheory · Answer

Juice wrld. And you should cheer up Michael Jackson isn't dead he faked his death most of these celebrities do or when they die in threes that's actually a case of ritual sacrifice like Kobe Bryant is really dead it was ritual sacrifice Michael Jackson faked his death Paul Walker really died Kurt Cobain did not Robin Williams is not dead a little peep is not dead and I don't know if juice world is dead but he did release a video about a month before he died of him inside of a burning pentagram doing a satanic ceremony selling his soul son these people legitimately do sell their souls for fame and money

Anonymous · Answer

None have hit me hard.. though, I do find it very tragic when losing great artists way too early.. like Amy Winehouse and Heath Ledge I clearly remember from my own lifetime.
I will also mention the actor John Ritter here. He played the dad in the TV show '8 simple rules', and they portrayed the loss with having the dad die as well. It brought an extra dimension to his death and the show.

Static_In_The_Attic · Answer

Chris Farley & also Robin Williams.

DiegoO · Answer

Chadwick Boseman.

He had a significant influence in my life. When I heard of his death, I couldn't believe it. For me he was more than Black Panther. The guy is a legend; one of the best actors I've seen.

user1516 · Answer

Michael Jackson and Kim Jonghyun.
I didn’t know who Jonghyun was until the day after his death, which hit me hard and I think it was because he committed and he was going through a lot of emotional pain and ahh I don’t even want to get into detail it makes me teary eyed. He deserved better 💔 rip to both.

Yvette Wilson

What celebrity death hit you the hardest?

She played Andell Wilkerson on the Parkers Sitcom and she was so energetic and full of life, she died in 2012 after battling with cervical cancer. Now every time I see her in the rewatches I can help but think about what it would have been like if she was still here.

Anonymous · Answer

Each celeb that has died from a very specific form of cancer. Because someone I love has had it and is a survivor that has been cancer free for several years now. All thanks to God.

Slayerrrrrrr · Answer

Jesus Christ. Celebrity deaths shouldn't affect you. They'd be unaffected by your death so why does their life or death make it any more important?

You're not any less or more than they are. When you put so much importance on nonsensical things like this it makes you se like a feeble minded and insignificant individual. Focus in your life and become your own celebrity.

PralineCream · Answer

Robin williams perhaps, it's sad that someone who seemed so happy and brought so much joy to others was actually the complete opposite.

Miristheiss · Answer

I don't know. I can't think of anyone.
It is before my time but maybe John Lennon. He had so much more awesome music still to put out. Maybe the Beatles would have gotten together for one more album at some point.

Anonymous · Answer

It’s sad to see those whose work you enjoyed die, but at the same time I don’t know those people. If I died would it affect their day at all? They wouldn’t even know about it.

DizzyDesii · Answer

I balled my eyes out for Paul Walker. I was heartbroken about Aaliyah and Patrick Swayze. No one else really hit. My sis lost it after Chadwick died. she's been mentally unstable since. Its very sad to see her thinking she's talking to his ghost

MTC29 · Answer

I've been a Larkers fan since the late 1960s. Kobe death hit me hard, but then so did Chick Hearn's. As a kid I'd listen to the Laker games on the radio at night, and usually fall asleep during Chick's post show.

EmbraceThePain · Answer

No celebrity death really bothered me as I didn’t personally know any of them. I’ve never talked to them, nor have I really looked into what type of people they are.

They are effectively strangers.

Chris Benoit (I'm a pro wrestling fan) not only because it happened, but then the circumstances around it as well.

Paul Walker, then recently Norm MacDonald. That doesn't mean i don't have other favourite actors who died and i miss them, but for some reason their death wasn't so hard on me.

Titanic1912 · Answer

The one that hit me hard was Eddie Van Halen! I’m going live on the 6th and singing some of Van Halen’s songs with Eddie’s best riffs!

SuccessfulHornDog · Answer

Most celebrities are complete SHIT. I really don't care about them. Phil Hartman was funny and I am sorry to see his work end. As far as sports figures, I don't care if most of them die because they are superficial douchebags who contribute nothing to society that they aren't already over paid for. Pat Tillman gave his life for his country when we were attacked on 9/11. He is more important than all of the other leeches combined
