Perhaps “Prince” of Purple Rain” fame might be considered for Q’s Suicide Tracker list:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prince_(musician)
“...On April 20, Prince’s representatives called Howard Kornfeld, a California specialist in addiction medicine and pain management, seeking medical help for Prince. Kornfeld scheduled to meet with Prince on April 22, and he contacted a local physician who cleared his schedule for a physical examination on April 21.[188][193] On April 21, at 9:43 am, the Carver County Sheriff’s Office received a 9-1-1 call requesting that an ambulance be sent to Prince’s home at Paisley Park. The caller initially told the dispatcher that an unidentified person at the home was unconscious, then moments later said he was dead, and finally identified the person as Prince.[194] The caller was Kornfeld’s son, who had flown in with buprenorphine that morning to devise a treatment plan for opioid addiction.[188] Emergency responders found Prince unresponsive in an elevator and performed CPR, but a paramedic said he had been dead for about six hours,[195] and they were unable to revive him. They pronounced him dead at 10:07 am, 19 minutes after their arrival.[188] There were no signs of suicide or foul play.[188] A press release from the Midwest Medical Examiner’s Office in Anoka County on June 2 stated that Prince had died of an accidental overdose of fentanyl,[196] at the age of 57.[197]
It is not yet known whether Prince obtained the fentanyl by a prescription or through an illicit channel.[198] The question of how and from what source Prince obtained the drug which led to his death has been the subject of investigations by several law enforcement agencies.[189][193][195] A sealed search warrant was issued for his estate,[199] and another, unsealed, warrant was issued for the local Walgreens pharmacy.[200] On April 19, 2018, the Carver County Attorney announced that the multi-agency investigation related to the circumstances of Prince’s death had ended with no criminal charges filed.[201][202]
Following an autopsy, his remains were cremated.[203] On April 26, 2016, Prince’s sister and only full sibling Tyka Nelson filed court documents in Carver County, to open a probate case, stating that no will had been found. Prince’s five half-siblings also have a claim to his estate, which totals millions of dollars and includes real estate, stocks, and cars.[204][205] As of three weeks after his death, 700 people claimed to be half-siblings or descendants.[206] Bremer Trust was given temporary control of his estate, had his vault drilled open,[207] and was authorized to obtain a blood sample for DNA profiling.[208]
Prince’s ashes were placed into a custom, 3D printed urn shaped like the Paisley Park estate.[209] The urn was placed on display in the atrium of the Paisley Park complex in October 2016...”
In addition to the above, there is an article in June 18, ‘18 National Enquirer that “Prince was a Secret Porn Star.” Some actresses he is reported to have had relations with are Sheena Easton, Kim Basinger, and Carmen Electra.

Prince was a fantastic guitarist. Look up the tribute to George Harrison where they play “While my Guitar Gently Weeps”. Prince did a solo that knocked my socks off. And I wear my socks tight!
