Top Ten Saddest Celebrity Deaths of All Time

The legend will always live on, in his amazing music.

When the King of pop died I didn't believe it but when I realised it was true I wore a glove for pretty much the rest of the year June the 25th 2009 was a curse to everyone

I am glad that my mom made me listen to his songs and watch his movies and music videos when I was four. Because if not, I would probably not take the time to listen to his songs at all. RIP Michael Jackson - TheFourthWorld

Died to early.

When a celebrity dies, most people just ignore it and go on with their lives. But when Robin Williams died, people took notice. He was an amazing person with a wonderful personality who suffered from crippling depression, as well as the beginnings of dementia and Parkinsons. But anyone who grew up in the 90's can tell you Robin Williams held a special place in our hearts.

He was a comedian. As a comedian he made millions life and made people smile, but no one realized he himself needed a little bit of that joy he gave us. When he died I couldn't believe it how could such a happy man take his own life? I have to admit I shed a few I tears I hope people will remember 80 years from now for he was an amazing man.

One of the few celebrity deaths I cried at upon hearing it. Such a great man, and one whose work I grew up on and loved with a passion. The fact that such a kind and funny man was dealing with so many awful things in life (like dementia and Parkinsons) is such a sad demonstration of how cruel the world is. RIP to a one of a kind talent. - Mrveteran

When he died it was like the death of laughter. While I have moved on from his death I miss his spirit and humor every day. This was a man who made superman laugh after he was devastatingly crippled from a horse riding accident, that is real power.

His death was the most saddest death. I feel for Kurt and Heath, but they died because of themselves, drugs and stupid. For music, what part of "Imagine all the people living life in peace" don't people understand.? He was a real musician, memebr of most successful Band and a peacemaker.

He was a great man. He was also a peacemaker and amazing lead singer of The Beatles, one of the greatest bands of all time following Queen. Rest In Peace John Lennon - Draco

Still the biggest loss of them all. Second is robin Williams

John Lennon's death deprived us of one of the greatest human beings who ever lived!

Definitely the saddest. He had such a bright future. He never lived to see himself win an Academy award and the saddest thing is he died thinking everyone would hate his portrayal as The Joker when in reality it was one of the greatest.

I think it bothers me more that we'll never get to see him do more. The joker was arguably the best performance of all time. I hate to see that his legacy has to live on through that role, when he could have easily become the most famous actor in history if he were still alive. - ChickenKing

Devastating. Such an absolute tragedy. Someone so young, who was just finding his momentum. I still dream about the amazing things we might've seen him in.

Wish he had lived on to do other work, being so great as the joker

His death was not only horrible to you guys or the rest of his fans, his death was a tragedy that affected the whole world, as well as the movie industry, even the president and government were heartbroken when he was killed in an accident, he was a hero who was perhaps the best race car driver ever and did feats that no one else could ever do, and he saved a lot of people, his death put the whole movie industry towards rock bottom.

At first I wasn't sad because I've never watched any of the Furious movies. Then I watched them one by one and I broke into tears at the end of Furious 7. His death was one of the saddest.

He was a beautiful person. Happy, exuberant, and compassionate. He didn't deserve to get burnt alive. He deserved a peaceful death at least.

It's been a long day, without you my friend

Kurt Cobain spoke for those who couldn't and he still does today. His lyrics were simple and yet deep at the same time, so many people including myself can still relate to his music. He was not a god, he was a good guy who loved to make music and share his ideas, his death only immortalised his work, contrary to the the official police report, Kurt didn't commit suicide, check it out for yourself in the documentary Soaked In Bleach, no matter what you make of his death, think about his life, his achievements his positive things. It makes me happy that someone like him actually lived. We need more people like him. Rest in peace Kurt.

The god of music

Most people think he had a pretty good life. Watch " Kurt Cobain: Montage Of Heck" He had a horribly sad life. From Start to finish. It will bring you into crying on the floor. - RustyNail

Screw you Courtney. - DarkandSinister

Chester Bennington and Chris Cornell were the first celebrity deaths that I got emotional over. Two incredible musicians as well as incredible human beings and the world is a much darker place without them.

Chester was such an amazing singer and screamer in Linkin Park, and when I heard about his death in July via a Clevver News video, I was sad about it and I've been on a Linkin Park binge for quite a while. Personally, I think his death was one of the saddest celeb deaths of 2017. Rest in peace Chester. You may have died, but you'll always be remembered as a legend. We all miss you so much. :'( - dbret12

He is my childhood hero. The way he sings and the lyrics, they spoke his heart out as he does mine. He will always be my hero from time to time, his legacy will always lives on.

His death was the first celebrity death that I got really emotional over I cried I still cry sometimes about it. it's just so sad.the world will never be the same without him or Chris Cornell :(.

Such an amazing, talented, and kind man lost to us. His legend will live on forever.

Why is he not number one? Are you kidding me? 25 years later and I still think about him everyday.

Miss u camp freddie - Roher1977

For me he should be further up on the list, I think about him every day.
He was just so full of happiness and joy and had a smile that could pull you out of the darkest of moods, when he died the whole world lost a whole lot of light. We miss you Fredd!

A man a truly respect as his career is my life vocation. A man who enjoyed his job until the end. An amazing scientist, an incredible adventurer, a fearless man who went to the most lost places of earth to risk his life for the most genuine animal documentary of all time. His death was in one way violent, but I think what would make him happy is that he died doing what he loved, doing that one job that made him famous and that defined him. To conclude, the most amazing thing about thing about this man, at the very end, when he was bleeding to death, he remained calm and faded away in calm. A truly amazing man that should be respected and remembered forever.

He was my inspiration as a kid his death tore me apart he will live on as my hero

I watched his stuff when I was little. His death made me very sad. He was my hero.

GOAT

He killed himself. It just took him years. So incredibly sad. No wonder so many people think he's still alive. We all just miss him so much.

He had a bright future. He was great.

Tupac is probably the greatest rapper ever - he had an amazing way of sampling songs and was also a fantastic poet with his lyrics. He lives on in his music but I feel he would have had so much more to give had he lived on

The worst thing happened to the Rap history was Pac's death everything has changed in rap after that day admit it Eminem fans 2pac is the best and the realest

R.I.P Tupac, I wish so badly Tupac didn't get killed, imagine how much more great music he could of made if he didn't get killed! His Music lives on though through all the generations of rap lovers everybody knows about Tupac, his music & his talent. The best thing about Tupac that I loved though was that his music actually meant something he didn't just rap about guns, drugs & killing people. His lyrics were meaningful and He spoke up for the community & rapped about real life problems, I always said Tupac was a good guy & his heart was in the right place. I pray he is in Heaven R.I.P

:( RIP Tupac

Amy Jade Winehouse was the one who introduced our plastic pop generation to good wholesome jazz. She was ultimately killed by the people she loved most through mental abuse and introducing her to alcohol and heroin. She didn't deserve that, Amy will live on in our hearts forever and we miss her every day, for more information watch Asif Kapadia's documentary, AMY

A beautiful and talented soul, stolen away from the music world. She had an intoxicating light that attracted everyone, and brought life into the music industry. She made me fall in love with music at the age of 7. Gone too soon.

She even had a child named after her. Selena Gomez was said to be named after her. I wish she had lived to hear that. I'm sure it would have touched her heart.

So Sad wish she were still here

She was amazing person. she still is. I hope the woman who killed selena should BURN IN HELL.

THE BEST BASSIST IN THE WORLD HE WAS

The news of his death absolutely broke my heart. A great human being who had a human frailty. He tried so hard to get and stay well. One slip up after an earnest struggle caused him his life.

Probably the saddest moment in GLEE history. 'Make You Feel My Love' always gets me

Cory Monteith was a nice guy and he was a great actor and singer R.I. P buddy

This man shaped my whole world. I fell in love with him when I saw The Labyrinth as a child, I was just fascinated by him. I then sought out his music, and I'm still finding new things to listen to to this day. What a library of recordings this man has. He's brought so much to so many of us, and I feel blessed that he let us love him for the alien that he was for as long as he was here. Thank you, David Bowie. My Hero.

My sister cried for days and days when she found out. He was her biggest idle. I felt so bad for her.

A hero and icon, you beaut

A true legend, my hero

RIP DIME

I loved Disney when I was a little kid

She died of plane crash - MeaganSaysHI

R.I.P Aaliyah! I Miss Aaliyah so much, I think she was totally underrated. She had such a smooth, soft voice. I love just kicking back & jamming to Aaliyah it's just so sad she died such a horrible, tragic death at such a young age of 22. She was beautiful, classy & talented. She wasn't trashy at all she was quite elegant & she had real star quality about her. She was also the best dancer ever!. I just wish she didn't die, but she lives on through her music
& we will always remember her & never forget her, Miss U baby girl xx R.I.P

Diana was the saddest everyone shared the love for her and it was not fair how she died I wish she were her this day I know I'm 11 and she died a long time before I was even born but I wish I could of meet her she was a rolemodle and now shes mine! Annabelle,11

One of the most underrated and most musically gifted artists of his time.

I heard his death when I was going to bed. I immediately broke into tears. I have to admit, that I have never watched any of his movies besides the Harry Potter ones. I cried all night. He said he was going to live to 80, but he didn't. I finally felt I was born too late. I have caught too many celebrity deaths in my 15 years life.

I honestly cried when I heard about Alan Rickman's death. He was an amazing actor, especially as Snape in the Harry Potter movies. So many people will forever remember him, and he will live forever in their hearts. RIP Alan Rickman.

I was at my school when I heard of his death, as a Harry Potter fan for my entire life, I was beyond devastated I started uncontrollably bawling when I got home, he will live on in our hearts, after all this time? Always.

A legend that will never die and never deserved to die so soon. His memory will always live on through his incredible acting! A true inspiration

RIP BENOIT - awesomehorror

Not sad

She has the best voice of all time. After she died her daughter took her own life. Sad, sad story.

She is, and always will be, the best vocalist of her time

No one will ever hit those high notes like you houston. - MeaganSaysHI

She had the best voice.I loved her music.It was so sad when she died.

I hope others are very sad and want to comment (nice things) about prince. I have a weird feeling he's still alive.

Look I'm more of a Michael Jackson fan but the day he died I was sleeping on the couch and they said famous musician prince died then I got up and cried this needs a place on this list

What the hell he was awesome vote him number 1 NOW let's save Prince

PRINCE should be number 1, or at least 2!

Every time I hear his amazing voice my heart twists. If I see him on You Tube, tears often slip. He was a great talent and it's a shame we will all miss out on what he might have graced us with in the future.

Great man...I'll admit I never paid attention to him before his death but as I learned more about him, I realized what a great and amazing man he is. If the world was ruled by men like him, this world would be like paradise on Earth.

This death should be in the top 3 at least!

The greatest. Rest in peace.

Amazing man, I don’t understand why colour matters..it’s very sick, whoever still thinks that race matters you are disgusting

Really her life was not peaceful... - zuni

She was the greast girl and always had humor. Although she managed to get JFK to cheat on his wife with her

She was a whore who died of a drug overdose

Probably one of the most tragic and saddest celebrities death ever. The young woman had an amazing voice and was probably an even more beautiful person. Truly got heartbroken from this. And what is also really sad is that her brother, who tried to stop the murderer had to watch his sister die before his very eyes.

One of the saddest deaths ever. She was beautiful and had an absolutely amazing voice. In my opinion, she's better than most singers nowadays. Rest In Peace, Christina. You shall always remain in our hearts.

This was a terrible tragedy that should have never happened. Imagine the career she had in front of her. But then that dream was destroyed by that piece of garbage. RIP Christina.

Screw the person who shot her. I hope he's burning in hell for such an evil deed.

He NEEDS to be on this list! - TheOneMan

Honestly one of the saddest deaths of this year.

Yeah!

What a sad way he went. There was a point where his music was the only thing keeping him alive

When the greatest guitar player dies at 27; that's sad.

I remember the day I found out...I was so heartbroken. She was such a sweet little girl. Taken too soon. RIP Heather.

Come on guys, kinda shocked this isn't on here already

He is the greatest formula 1 driver of all time. He is pure genius.

I have loved him since I was 13. Will love him forever. Died to young! Had so much more to give. The greatest of all time in my opinion!

I remember seeing this on the news. I never really knew about him so much but I know he was incredible! He lived a good life.

Brah, this guy...

Dies on 3/14/18... birthday of Albert Einstein as well
If you know ERB you will know something is strange

It's such a shame, he was so young and so talented.

I'm not even a fan and I feel bad for him - MilkTae

I honestly miss hik so much.

That sucked so bad.

Such great talent. His death was even more tragic because he was only 24.

The only contender to Brando.
