Which famous persons passing would cause the biggest reactions and colourful tributes and reminiscing on datalounge?

I'm kind of meaning non political figures so I'm overlooking the obvious answer of Donald Trump etc!

A few names as possibilities for the crown

Doris Day? Olivia De Havilland? Joan Collins? Kirk Douglas? Susan Sarandon? Madonna? Liza Minnelli? Robert Wagner? Dolly Parton? Sean Connery?

Oprah's dying is gonna cause a lot of weeping and wailing in the religious, black groups.

R7, turn in your DL card and get the fuck out!

All of those names would create big discussions but which would create one big enough to warrant a part two to the thread?

by Anonymousreply 9October 22, 2018 5:41 PM

Cher, Elton, Midler, Streisand. I wouldn't be overly sad if any of them died but I would seriously grieve if Springsteen died.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned Caitlyn Jenner

by Anonymousreply 11October 22, 2018 5:50 PM

R9, for Christ’s sake that’s a low bar. Lil’ Peep crossed that threshold, no?

Betty White is going to get a royal send-off. Liza will also, with the gays at least. Jimmy Carter might be a surprise. He has loomed large as an elder statesman, though a maverick of sorts, for most people 40 and younger through his work with the Carter Center and Habitat for Humanity and not because of his time as President.

Prince Philip will create a big discussion on here because of all of the history and knock on implications of his passing. He will definitely go before the Queen. Dare I suggest Thomas Markle's passing would also generate a lot of activity on here also?!

Yes, Betty Windsor would break the DL servers. Muriel would need to be sent to a spa after that event for a long rest.

Camilla. You know we will be dragging that bitch's corpse for days.

When Madonna dies the news will cycle 24/7 for days.

And, TBH, she deserves that.

Even if you hate her you have to admit that she was a trailblazer in a lot of respects.

Betty White

Stephen Sondheim. When God meets God, the whip-smart DL theatricals will rightly be busy for days.

Broadway will dim its lights, but DL will blaze. Not that this is wishful, I'd like him to reach 100.

When Connie goes, the few remaining Howard Johnson's will dim their lights.

LOL, R31. I had no idea who she even was until someone posted a YouTube video of a concert when she was in her 70s. She looked and sounded like a pitchy, deranged drag queen.

by Anonymousreply 32October 22, 2018 9:22 PM

COUNTRY MUSIC drag queen.

Just let me clarify.

r21, I wouldn't waste an FF on such low stock as yourself. I'll just tell you to eat nothing but shit from now until Madonna dies.

Oprah's funeral will be quite a show. Maybe she'll have as many costume changes as Queen Aretha.

I've never before said this to anyone.

I got my drive from my mother, but I got my DREAMS from my father.
