The Grim Reaper is starting early this year.

Can't believe Dwayne Hickman was 87.

RIP to Dwayne, Bob and Sidney

RIP Ronnie Spector

https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/ronettes-ronnie-spector-dead-1283586/

Ronnie Spector, the leader of the girl group the Ronettes and the voice behind immortal classics like “Be My Baby” and “Walking in the Rain,” died Wednesday after a brief battle with cancer. She was 78.

“Ronnie lived her life with a twinkle in her eye, a spunky attitude, a wicked sense of humor and a smile on her face,” her family said in a statement. “She was filled with love and gratitude. Her joyful sound, playful nature and magical presence will live on in all who knew, heard or saw her.”

The Ronettes were the quintessential act of the early Sixties girl group era, and Spector’s silk meets sandpaper voice powered all of their songs. And while “Be My Baby” became the defining song of the entire time period, they also charted with “Baby, I Love You,” “Walking In The Rain,” “(The Best Part of Breaking’ Up),” and “Do I Love You.”

Yes, Loretta Swit was Hot Lips in the M.A.S.H TV series but Sally Kellerman was the original Hot Lips Hoolihan in the MASH movie

there was a film (MASH), then the TV series (M*A*S*H). Differing casts.

Including, Donald Sutherland playing Hawkeye in the film, Alan Alda in the TV series.

I guess this one fits as an entrrtainer. He was certainly in the headlines often.

There are reports circulating the Shane Warne has died of a suspected heart attack.

May not have been everyone's cup of tea but he was a giant of the game.

One of Wisden's five cricketers of the century & rightly so.

Admired by friend & foe.

A very sad time for his family & children.

Gone far too soon... R I P.

I agree that he wasn't my cup of tea, but you have to respect how good he was at the game. And he was. No doubts there at all. Not to mention off field activities (not talking about his womanising, he did a lot for kids). It's so dreadfully sad to be gone at 52yo.

Also very sad that Rod Marsh went a day before. 2 cricket legends at 2 different times of the game. It's a sad day for cricket.

Shane's last tweet was a tribute to Rod Marsh. Who would have thought that just a few hours later he would be gone too? So sad.
