2016 proved to be a brutal year for celebrity deaths; it seems we lost so many before the prime of their lives.
Recently and over the years, we’ve suffered with the loss of Prince who died of an accidental prescription drug overdose, or Glenn Frey of the Eagles who passed away due to intestinal issues. WHAM star George Michael passed away unexpectedly, Leon Russell, Leonard Cohen, and Maurice White of Earth Wind and Fire also died in 2016.
Lisa ‘Left Eye’ Lopez died in a terrible ‘off road’ jeep accident, while Aaliyah died from a plane crash at the age of 22. Karen Carpenter was a millionaire but starved to death, while Amy Winehouse drank herself to death.
Finally Whitney Houston passed away while waiting to appear at the Grammys a few years ago, sadly her daughter Bobbi died at 22, from a combination of alcohol, drugs, and drowning.
