What are the saddest celebrity deaths in your opinion?

[Ness]

Celebrities come and go but they always remain in our hearts and they always put a smile on our faces what are the saddest celebrity deaths at least in your opinion

For me:
This might just be due to bias of the show but Stephen Hillenburg (creator of SpongeBob) who died in 2018 was lowkey one of the saddest deaths in history and this news breaks my heart to this day despite happening over 7 years ago

Rick May and Jock Blanely (famous for portraying Peppy and Wolf in Star Fox 64 respectively) were also distressing death announcements. Rick died in 2021 (fuck covid) and Jock actuaky died this year

Whitney Houston AND her 21 year old daughter dying the same way.

NHL Star Johnny Gaudreau and his brother Matthew. They died after a drunk driver struck them biking home from a wedding in New Jersey. RIP Johnny Hockey

A recent one would be NASCAR driver Kyle Busch. Just days after winning a race succumbing to what he thought was just a sinus infection.

And while I don’t have any memories of this one, Robin Williams’s death is tragic. One of the funniest people to walk the earth taken from us too soon.

Most relevant to me personally as an Australian: John Clarke (who people here will probably know best for "The Front Fell Off")

The whole world stopped when Kobe Bryant passed away, when I first found out about it I thought it was a hoax.

I recall having a dream about going through a tour of Willy Wonka's chocolate factory, and then I woke up to the news that Gene Wilder passed away.

And then, several months later, hearing about Carrie Fisher's shocking cardiac arrest on the plane days before Christmas. We all know she didn't make it... and the grief killed her mother Debbie Reynolds the very next day.
