I've looked through the lists, and you are correct. The next earliest is 2000, with the death of Stanley Matthews on February 23.

Dame Edna is 87 today.

Jeb! Bush is 68.

March 27, 2002: - Milton Berle - Dudley Moore - Billy Wilder all on the same day. Should also be noted that Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother also died that week.

Master of trolling Rick Astley turns 55.

Dead.

Polly Lou Livingston, who voiced the secondary character Tree Trunks on Adventure Time, died on January 24th. She was 91.

Just gonna mention the string of #50 hits. Ian Brady (2017) Mark E Smith (2018) Johnny Clegg (2019) Peter Sutcliffe (2020) Tom Moore (2021) Should also mention that Smith was also a first hit of the year. EDIT: Moore also contributes to the string of oldest debut name dying: Luise Rainer (2014) Kirk Kerkorian (2015) Boutros Boutros-Ghali (2016) David Rockefeller (2017) Barbara Bush (2018) Tony Britton (2019) Carl Reiner (2020) Tom Moore (2021)

RIP to my first hit of 2021.

Schumer pulled a boner in more ways than one today.

King Louis XVI of France got a lot shorter (to say the least) on this day 228 years ago, aged 38.

The answer is no. Martin Van Buren (d. 1862) lived to see 8 presidents succeed him: - William Henry Harrison (Mar. 1841) - John Tyler (Apr. 1841) - James K. Polk (1845) - Zachary Taylor (1849) - Millard Fillmore (1850) - Franklin Pierce (1853) - James Buchanan (1857) - Abraham Lincoln (1861)

30 years ago today saw the beginning of Operation Desert Storm... And the death of King Olav V of Norway, aged 87, which was overshadowed by said event.

Ted Lange is 73 today.

Edrich and Cardin. ...Especially Cardin. Other descriptions include fashion designer, boxer, former presidents and politicians.

Eastern Standard Time. Sorry.

So he's on this year's list, and yet it says he's only appeared once instead of twice. Weird.
