The last celebrity death that really affected me deeply, however, was John Lennon. I think he still had a lot more good music to offer the world and his death seemed so senseless. Younger artists such as the Jonas Brothers are still learning from and copying the Beatles. BTW, I don't know why someone listed Jim Carrey as one the celebrities they'd like to see go next. His movies have not always hit the mark, but when they do they're great entertainment. I would have put Chuck Norris in the list because of his crazy religious views, but at the same time i was a great Walker fan. People are complicated. Even Oprah has her good points (great advice on diet and exercise). And MJ (though i'm not a great fan of his music) was a real innovator b4 he went totally off the deep end. Just don't tell me Homer Simpson will be the next to go. In spite of his many and obvious flaws he is still one of my heroes!
