Lady Die 63 Posted October 3, 2005 Romeo Beckham taken to hospital suffering from convulsions. Why exactly should that concern us? regards, Hein It's not the first time it's happened ... so maybe he'll die if it happens again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Magere Hein 1,400 Posted October 3, 2005 Why exactly should that concern us? It's not the first time it's happened ... so maybe he'll die if it happens again. Yes, I understand that, although I've been told kids fall ill regularly. My point is: he isn't a celebrity, is he? Are you hoping the distress about their sprog's illness will affect his parents in a life-threatening way? regards, Hein Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tomb raider 9 Posted October 3, 2005 He's as much a celebrity as is Paris Hilton, the late John Kennedy (jr.), Chelsea Clinton or Whatshername Osbourne (the ugly chick, can't be bothered to google her name). I suppose that all of them would qualify for a DL-nomination when their time is about to come due to their being related to an even more famous celebrity, and so would the Beckham-kid. But suffering from convulsions is not exactly an indicator that death is at hand, so we'd better rest this case for the next seventy or eighty years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Windsor 2,235 Posted October 3, 2005 Did the mods not declare that we do not include young children on deathlist.net. It was a big thing with the K1rsty Howard thread. Mind you, there is every possibility that she is excluded due to her illness giving her fame. However, just like Romeo, it is the Beckham's that made her famous.

Slave to the Grave 26 Posted October 3, 2005 Sounds like a febrile convulsion to me. So unlikely to be life threatening. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tomb raider 9 Posted October 3, 2005 It says here that "Long-lasting convulsive seizures can result in death if left untreated." The flu can be a high-speed killer too, but would you say dead might be imminent when a celebrity has a cold? (Of course it might when he is a thousand years old, extremely frail, has some other terminal illness and so on... Go on, Biggs, it's you I'm talking about!)

Windsor 2,235 Posted October 3, 2005 But technically he is not famous in his own right either. He is only famous because of his parents (no Royal Family jibes please). I'm sure that Derby Dead Pool would accept him though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cerberus 304 Posted October 3, 2005 I don't think any ruling was made (re: the Kirsty Howard thread) but I seem to recall that there was a consensus that children were unlikely to be famous in their own right (not too many child stars around nowadays) and "famous for being ill" was not good enough.
