    Davy Jones
    Freddie Mercury
    Jim Henson
    Heath Ledger - that one was so unexpected.

    I remember my mom being upset about Karen Carpenter.

    Princess Diana's death because of the way London came together, I didn't feel the loss of her personally as I didn't know her personally but it was how everyone was effected by what happened

    Corey Haim's death was a sad one. He was actually getting his *kitten* together, and then he got sick and died in almost the same way Brittany Murphy did.

    I never understood why people cry over celebrity deaths. I feel bad for their family and friends, but I don't get it. If I wept over every celebrity that died I'd have no time on my hands. I was upset when I learned there'd be no more Crocodile Hunter though. Loved that show.

    I don't think I've cried over one, but some cause more of a reminder of mortality than others.

    Obviously you have not formed a connection with an artist via their art.

    Princess Diana. The flowers on her coffin with "Mummy" still chokes me up.

    I loved Michael Jackson. I feel connected to his songs. I'm not gonna listen to them and think of him and cry because I feel like we were BFFs.
