He was a very talented musician and showman.

“Only Jerry Lee Lewis remains alive and kicking from that album cover.
Who knew that “The Killer” would outlast them all!”

Well I have always thought that his cousins were better, but good for him.
So not to hijack the thread Little Richard should have gotten an Oscar for his scene in Down and Out in Beverly Hills.

Prince and Tom Petty both died from drug overdose.

Death by overdose is higher than death by Coronavirus but we still haven’t closed the borders to protect Americans.

Drug Overdose Deaths in the United States, 1999–2017

Data from the National Vital Statistics System, Mortality

In 2017, there were 70,237 drug overdose deaths in the United States.
The age-adjusted rate of drug overdose deaths in 2017 (21.7 per 100,000) was 9.6% higher than the rate in 2016 (19.8).

Seems like such things go hand in hand in the entertainment industry.

He admitted to Joan Rivers he was gay on her show years ago. I understand he came to Christ later. May he RIP.
