Richard Adams, author of Watership Down, has gone too. Ninety-six years old. At least he had a good innings.
Dammit Carrie, why?
Dammit Carrie, why?
Carrie Fisher spent her life dealing with mental illness and used her fame to help destigmatize it. Let her be remembered for that.
Perhaps most shocking about 2016's reputation of rampant celebrity deaths is the one name we have not heard this year (or even in this thread, for that matter); Keith Richards. How this guy is still alive, despite the massive amount of drugs he's done in his life, is beyond me.
With all the other celebrity deaths this year, I had the fortune of not being familiar enough with their history and work for me to be personally affected. With Carrie Fisher...I feel sadness. More than I expected.
She is even survived by her own mother. Damn.
The only celebrity deaths that really punched me in the gut this year were Nick Menza, the former Dallas Cowboys receivers coach from the 90s Super Bowl teams, Kenny Baker, and now Fisher.
It's sad she won't get to see the 40th anniversary of Star Wars, she was a princess that inspired millions of people.
Debbie Reynolds, mother of Carrie Fisher, has passed away at 84 after suffering a stroke.

What a horrible time for their family.
In their honor, we should watch Singing In the Rain and the Star Wars original trilogy in their honor. No prequels!

Jesus Christ, what are the odds of that ever happening?

I think we all had the feeling 2016 was going to be a rough year for celebrities as soon as David Bowie checked out, but none of us saw 2016 leaving behind a cruel parting shot like Carrie and Debbie within 36 hours of each other.
