Alan Rickman
John Candy. I worked at a skate shop then and Jeremy Klein had a pro-model with a photo of John Candy and it said something like, “Dedicated to my favorite actor”. I remember putting it up on the wall with a tear in my eye.
Robin Williams’ passing still feels like a gut punch. He brought so much light, laughter, and warmth into the world, it’s heartbreaking to think he struggled in the dark
Andre Braugher
Chadwick Boseman and Norm Mcdonald
Philip Seymour Hoffman. Always great whatever role he played.
Chester Bennington
Norm Macdonald.
Was a huge influence on me. More than i knew. I still cant bring myself to watch his last show.
Phil Hartman. He was still at his peak in the ’90s and that news came out of nowhere. The Simpsons were never the same
Anthony Bourdain hit me harder than any in recent memory. It wasn’t like losing a legend. It was like losing a friend.
David Bowie.
James Gandolfini 😭
James Earl Jones for sure
Chris Cornell
Brittany Murphy
Anton Yelchin.
Carrie Fisher. She will always be my Princess. 🥺
Grant Imahara. He was so young and so brilliant. He passed away from a random brain aneurysm that came outta nowhere.
Steve Irwin
River Phoenix
Sean lock
Michale K. Williams & Kobe/Gigi. RIP
Seriously, watching him in movies since about 1990, I got to appreciate his range and genius as I grew up. Jumanji, One Hour Photo, Jack, Bicentennial Man.. Robin Williams is an absolute Legend and Treasure ✨
Lance Reddick
Betty White….she was a treasure ill miss her dearly
Anthony Bourdain
He really combined travel and cooking into one big cohesive experience that gave viewers a wonderful dive into other parts of the world — it wasn’t just a “I’m eating at this restaurant, I’m sightseeing here, that’s all folks”, it was beautiful storytelling about the people, their history and their cultures.
A lot of the ones said and Chester Bennington.
Anton Yelchin. He was only a few years older than me and to die in such a way and so young…
Heath Ledger, by far the biggest waste of talent lost
Matthew Perry
Robin Williams death was hard for sure, but so was Carrie Fisher.
Tupac.
Dolores O’Riordan. That one hit really hard. Anthony Bourdain and Chris Cornell were close seconds.
Kurt Cobain
Paul Walker & Kobe Bryant
Prince/Roger Ebert/Bourdain
John Candy
Robin Williams
George Michael
Chadwick Boseman
All fourof these hurt horribly
Micheal Jackson, I still remember I was housekeeping for my neighbor and the TV news reported the news. I fell from the bed I was lying in. Man, he was a phenomenal performer.
Trevor Moore
Michael Schumacher ..I know he is alive, but still.
Tom Petty – grew up loving his music and always loved his cameo in the God awful movie, The Postman.
Harambe
Liam Payne
Neil Peart.
Dude was an amazing drummer and fantastic songwriter. He was the reason I picked up the drums.
Taylor Hawkins (drummer of the Foo Fighters)
Matthew Perry
Aaliyah (plane crash 2001)
Romeo Must Die with Jet-Li is probably most well known
Her R&B talent was her fame and decades ahead.
If you knew her background in the 90s, R-Kelly and Jay-Z exposure now would be of no surprise. Karma, total creeps.
The big 3 departed LotR legends – Christopher Lee, Ian Holm, and Bernard Hill. They all had full lives and amazing careers, but it’s hard to see one of, if not **the** greatest generation of actors leaving the stage.
