Died in the 80s at the peak of his career after foolishly shooting himself by accident with a prop gun

Got curious and checked Wikipedia: his 65th birthday would have been last Saturday.

"Hexum" rings a bell, "hexem", not so much. I thought that Hexum bloke was the guy who dated Alexis Carrington for a while

If it wasn't for Datalounge, I would never have recognized this guy.
He was quite literally a nobody, but I remember the gay community seemed to mourn this guy almost as if Judy Garland herself had died.
Well, not quite.
When I was at university I barely had time to watch tv so I had no idea who he was.
But thanks to my fellow Datalounge elders who did watch tv, the image of Jon-Erik Hexum (snazzy hyphenated name and everything) is seared forver into my consciousness.
ALL HAIL, DATALOUNGE!
ALL HAIL THE REPOSITORIES OF AIDS ERA GAY CULTURE!!!!
It wasn't all Klaus Nomi and David Wojnarowicz.
Or porn stars for that matter.

He was the boyfriend of actor Antony Hamilton, another hot piece of ass, who succeeded him on the show with Jennifer O'Neill.

He did if he wanted to continue breathing.
