2008: The Year of Dead Celebrities

Leroi from DMB
not exactly a big celeb but still sad.

Meh. Celebrities die all the time, really. It's just seems like a lot because of the high profiles most of them have. Which is not to say it isn't tragic. But it happens.

Look at it this way. These celebrities will be immortalised by their own deaths. When an actor can eventually lose popularity and fade into nothingness, a lot of these died in their primes. They will be remembered, unlike Britney Spears.

LeRoi Moore from Dave Matthews is way up there for me, he and Heath Ledger.

See, this seems vaguely reminiscent of something Iv done with my friends the last 10 years.

We all meet up one night and write a list of 10 people we think will die in the next year, put them somewhere safe with 10 quid each and whoever has most wins. I got a whole 4 last year and took my share of the 200 quid.

Everyone trying to go out with a bang before the celebritocracy goes belly up.
