Celebrity Deaths

[erin-x]

I'm watching a program about Whitney Houston and just realised that it was two years ago on the same day that Alexander McQueen died. It got me thinking about celebrities and how much people (fans) mourn for their idols. I was devastated when I heard the news about McQueen but not so much for Whitney, just because I idolised him more.

Anyway, my question is, are any of you a big enough fan of any celebrity to be completely devastated by their death? Or have you been before?

I cried when Schmeichel (sp?) died in Corrie and he wasn't even really dead.

mikmak, ladybird and ladyj - unfortunately I must join you, there is no words that can describe it.

I must say again that devastated was the wrong word to use. Sorry to Mic, Ladybirder, Lady-janine and Star if I have upset you at all x

[lady-janine]

no erin that's fine. some people are more attached to celebs, etc, than others. we each have our own description of devastation.

No, to be very true that I never been completely devastated by their death. Though, it is also true that I feel very bad when I hear that the person whom I admire has passed away.
