Saddest Celebrity Death of this year?

[Corrie]

Christina Grimmie for sure. She was so young and had so much to offer to the world but some douche decided to take her life away. Makes me mad.

Nick Menza of Megadeth died of heart failure. He was around for what are typically regarded as Megadeth's best and most influential albums.

 

[Soigne]

David Bowie and Christina Grimmie affected me the most.

Severus Snape RIP forevs

Bowie and Prince. I can't believe that two of the most influential and important music icons from my formative years died within months of each other.

Please don't take Joni Mitchell away from me. Or Neil Young! Both Prince and Michael Jackson are dead--does that mean Madonna is next?!

Christina Grimmie. She was the first youtuber I followed and she was just such a positive and happy person. It's one of those deaths where you're like what, no, it can't be real.

 

[Acruoxil]

I didn't know either of them but deaths are never a good thing, they were all equally sad.

Christina Grimmie's was the biggest shock for sure. I didnt believe my sister when she told me. They were all very tragic but her death affected me the most because I watched her on youtube since the beginning

Cried my eyes out when I found out about Christina Grimmie. It's unreal. Been a fan since like 2009, she inspired my style for such a long time and my singing/music.

All of the celebrities death tgisvyear don't really sadden me one bit. I mean, i don't really care for their music.

 

[Alienfish]

He wasn't big enough for me to care about him.

I think he had quite some influence beyond his musical productions but that's just the trash I am lol.

And yeah of course there were lots more sad deaths but tbh I was the worst Bowie trash back in high school.. I still love him lots but yeah if I had to pick, him for sure.

Christina Grimmie actually hit me quite hard.

christina grimmie. she was shot in front of her fans and family. thats the saddest thing imaginable.

 

[Daydream]

Christina Grimmie. She was way too young to die...

 

[strawberrigod]

Christina Grimmie really bothered me for some reason. I don't know if it's because of how she died or because she's really close to my age. I thought it was the saddest thing and hearing her sing makes me tear up now. She was so young and had so much talent :'(

 

[sej]

Prince

 

[abc123wee]

I think every death is equally as sad, no matter who it is. Celebrity or not.

 

[piske]

idk why but anton yelchin's death made me really sad. I'd only seen him in star trek - maybe because he was so young and it was such a weird/terrible way to die? :<

Everyone dies why would a celebrities death be sadder?
This is just sad...

Because celebrities affect more people, more people will be sad and grieving, people often see celebrity deaths as the death of a legacy.

(not that I'm at all effected by the deaths this year, but still..)
