10. Orson Welles: 1942

What he was: The 20-something writer, director, producer and star of “Citizen Kane”. What he became: An embarrassment, a drunk and punchline.

9. Elvis Presley: 1963

What he was: A dynamic heart-throb who transcended musical genres. What he became: A pill-popping, Nixon-loving, fat, slurring, impotent pedophile.

8. O.J. Simpson: 1988

What he was: The Juice, Heisman Trophy winner, record-breaking sprinter, 2,000 yard NFL rusher, actor and all-around great guy. What he became: Abusive husband, killer, liar, author, robber and bail violator. I could have let the first murder slide but he’s really piling it on.

7. Whitney Houston: 1991

What she was: Best selling solo artist, first female solo artist to hit #1, seven consecutive #1 singles. The woman was hip, hot and talented. What she became: That chick who sings that one song that I hate. Also, she likes the crack.

6. Madonna: 1989

What she was: A young superstar who would crank out constant hits whilst being an unapologetic slut. Possibly the perfect woman. What she became: A talentless, roided up, baby stealing, British Yoko with an Angelina complex

5. Michael Jackson: 1986

What he was: Musical prodigy, the heart of The Jackson 5, singer, song writer and one hell of a dancer. What he became: A creepy, white, child molester who makes crappy music and statues of himself. Also, he stared in a video game where the main objective is to “collect” little children.

4. Courtney Love: 1994

What she was: The hot, talented, wife of my generation’s Elvis. What she became: A drugged up Goldie Hawn from “Death Becomes Her“. Also, Billy Corgan wrote her songs and I’m pretty sure she killed Kurt.

3. Tom Cruise: 1992

What he was: Star of Taps, The Outsiders, Risky Business, Top Gun, The Color of Money, Rain Man and Born on the 4th of July. Amazing. What he became: A psychology-bashing, closeted, high-heel wearing cultist who hasn’t made a good movie in 16 years. He also sues people a lot, so I’ll stop there.

2. Mel Gibson: 1998

What he was: A fresh-faced Australian star that mixed bad-boy good looks with stunning acting chops. What he became: Not only crazy, but jew-hating crazy. That’s a big no-no in Hollywood. Plus, he’s not even Australian.

1. Paris Hilton: 1980

What she was: A beautiful little zygote with her whole life ahead of her. What she became: The personification of everything wrong with America.


Narrowly missing the list; Olsen Twins: 2003, Brit Brit: 2000, Hitler: 1938

Those who knew how to leave em wanting more: JFK, James Dean, Buddy Holly, River Phoenix, Kurt Cobain, Jimi Hendrix, Jesus.

they didn't include Stevie Ray Vaughn into the "leave em wanting more crowd, but that is what he did.
as far as a celebrity that should have died i would say Arnold Schwarzenegger, he should have died right after making Terminator 2 and before those Kennedy's gave him the notion of political aspirations (his wife Maria Shriver is a Kennedy)

lars ulrich,

part of one of the greatest rock/metal bands there WAS......what he became? part of that same band that hasnt made shit for music in almost 20 years, and who essentially started the whole anti-piracy movement with his flogging of napster.......

he should have stuck with tennis as a career. he could suck at it too, but at least we could have laughed at how stupid we all know he would look.....

Tom Cruise the scientoligist lunatic & after the "Speed Racer" movie, I would say the Wachowski Bros.

Seriously? I think it's horrible and evil of you to wish death on another human being, weather you like that person or not.

This thread is just wrong.

This is just wrong..

Verdict

At approximately 2:25pm PDT (21:25 UTC) on June 13, 2005 the jury of the Superior Court of the State of California, held in and for the County of Santa Barbara, determined that Michael Jackson was not guilty on any of the charges he had been accused with. The not guilty verdicts on all ten charges, including four lesser substitute charges, were read aloud by court clerk Lorna Frye. Fans cried from happiness outside of the courthouse as the verdicts were announced. The investigation and trial lasted for 574 days.

People should actually do some research before making statements

O. J. Simpson murder case
At 10 a.m. on October 3, 1995, after only three hours of deliberation, the jury returned a verdict of not guilty. Estimates were that 150 million people watched the delivery of verdict on TV.

Nuff said

There's a big diff. between "not guilty" and innocent.

Jury consists of 12 people, Michael Jacksons fan base consists of millions, so the chance that those 12 people are bias in Jacksons favour is extremely high.

As its already been said there is a huge difference between "not guilty" and innocent, a man kills 200 people but there is only enough evidence to support that he killed 20 people does not mean he only killed 20 people.

You articulated my point far better than mysefl. Thanks Spider.

wow, jay ..........................

My two cents on Michael Jackson? He was one of the greatest musical performers of his time..a phenomenon,and one of my all-time favourite artists.
Sexual contact or not..it is wrong for a grown man to share his bed with adolescent children,be they male or female.

I'm sure Adolf Hitler had millions of fans too..it doesn't mean he wasn't a warmongering idealist that murdered MILLIONS of people.

(I am of the opinion that the murder of millions of Jews,Gypsies etc occurred.If your opinion is the opposite,then I respect your views,I'm not looking for a discussion OR an argument..I just thought I'd make that one clear;)

how to turn a thread thats having a laugh into a politically correct dissection of whether it is morally acceptable to lambast certain celebrities. to the few posters who are doing this - god I'd hate to go on a night out with you - half the time would be for timeouts to take any jokes apart and make sure they are okay to make.. and plus I'd know that I'd have to suffer that all night because hey, you've got Jacko or OJ babysitting your kids so you needn't worry, need you?

Ohh .... my god.It` s very seriously !

paul mcartney

....the gay one from the worlds most overrated boy band!!!

I still think wishing death on people, no matter how much different they may be from you or not...is wrong.

i still think it's a totally rhetorical issue as no one has ever been known to die from discussion, but it's nice to know we have at least one person who cares enough to share their feelings

a few more to add to the "left them wanting more list"...

Martin Luther King

Marvin Gaye

Andy Kauffman

Steve Irwin

i'd be up for some kind of swap deal.. pete doherty dies after the libertines split, and jim morrison lives forever

also, while we're swapping mortality.. lennon lives, mccartney dies

anyone got that beelzebubs number?

I agree with Lennon lives & McCartney dies.
I had his number but was told "Don't call us. We'll call you" after I signed the contract.

I also want to add to the list:


Jennifer lopez

Soulja Boy
