The idea of Farrah Fawcett dying of colon cancer.

This one.

Prince
George Michael
Freddy Mercury

I loved their music.

Ugh, Anthony Bourdain. Still hits so hard, get choked up just thinking about the terrible loss to the world.

RBG. So many mixed emotions. I was so angry when she died.

Yes, Twitch for sure. What a shock.

Raul Julia. It surprised me.

Heath Ledger made my mom really sad I think because he was so young.

Chadwick Boseman seemed like such a good guy and died so young, I was really upset about his death.

Andy Gibb. Think it was 1988? I was in college and was shocked that one of my earliest teen idols/crushes had died and was so young. It was jarring to me and my first celeb death.

Same. I was a huge Bee Gees fan back in the day as a teenager, and thought of him practically as my own little brother since he was the Bee Gees' little brother. Such a shock, and I kept thinking about how his siblings and parents all must have been feeling. His death also got so much publicity at the time (around the fact that his drug use, while it didn't kill him, contributed to the damage which eventually did). Just a sad waste of potential.

George Harrison
Taylor Hawkins

James Gandolofini, because of his age and the way that he died, on vacation with his family in Italy, being found by his son. The deaths from drugs and addiction hit me less hard.

Kurt Cobain
Tim Russert
George Harrison

George Michael was my first concert, first crush and the precedent for every gay crush the rest of my life. Loved him and I love this song with ZERO irony. I'm a huge dork...

Harry Chapin

Also JFK Jr. I was only 10 but remember watching the footage of the water off of Martha’s Vineyard.
