Did you do an article search? There are already two existing threads on the subject.

Another giant of the entertainment industry DEAD. It's madness. Is there some conspiracy afoot to rid the world of our entertainers? Elvis Presley, Liberace, Wayne Newton, Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison, Kurt Cobain, that guy who was in The Clash, and on and on. If this keeps up, we will have nobody left to sing songs and play guitar for us. It's madness. Who is killing all these people? When will it all end?

Heard Liberace got it in the end (rim shot). Wait a second, Wayne Newton died?

Wayne Newton is still alive. His talent died 30 years ago.

It was just a month ago that Syreeta Wright died. She's the one who did that "With You I'm Born Again" song with Billy Preston. She was only 58 - practically Rick James' age. It's disturbing how young they die. I wonder if it was all those years of backstage eating. I hear they serve all kinds of junk to touring bands backstage. Deli meat, pizza, hot dogs, bowls of M&Ms and all kinds of other crap. I wonder if this is what is doing them all in.

Ummm...The death of Wayne Newton has been greatly exaggerated.

Could be, along with the uppers, downers, lines of coke, and copious booze.

OK, I had Wayne Newton mixed up with Ray Charles (who did die). But I bet you dollars to donuts that Wayne Newton winds up dead one of these days, adding to the musical carnage that we have before us.
