 Re: Celebrity Deaths 2021
Two living legends in the last two weeks.
Betty seemed invincible up until about three or four years ago. I remember her last awards show appearance (maybe Emmys 2017/8?) and she didn't seem as quick talking as she was even a year before that. Most would love her run in the spotlight just from mid-2000s on, not to mention her incredible career before that.

 Re: Celebrity Deaths 2021
This is a shocker. He was touring and performed the day before.
A lot of people grew up with him with AFV (at one time the #1 show on television) and Full House.
This is really sad. RIP.

 Re: Celebrity Deaths 2021
I'm pretty surprised he was only 65

 Re: Celebrity Deaths 2021
I'm surprised he was that old honestly. He more or less looked the same for the last 15 years, just looked more tired.
Definitely feeling the hurt over that loss. Grew up with Full House and AFV. Feels like a shitty loss between him and Norm MacDonald. One of my favorite roast moments was when Norm "roasted" Bob Saget.

 Re: Celebrity Deaths
I don't know that many of his songs other than those two but they're two of the best of all time

 Re: Celebrity Deaths
Love Meat Loaf. A true larger than life showman and performer, even into his 50s/60s. He always gave 110% on the stage. And his Bat Out Of Hell with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra concert back in 2004 is one of my all-time favorites.

 Re: Celebrity Deaths
RIP Ivan Reitman. I just saw Ghostbusters:Afterlife on Saturday, which now we can recognize as a fitting tribute from Jason Reitman to his dad that he was able to experience before his passing.

Aw no! Wonder if he gets to appear as Red Hulk finally in She Hulk show. Would be a good send off for him.

 Re: Celebrity Deaths
RIP Scott Hall and Taylor Hawkins.
On HBO, Hawkins had a very prominent part on the “Jagged” Alanis Morissette documentary. Also Foo Fighters was inducted in 2021 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame also on HBO, nice that he experienced this prior.
