La Tombe 353 Posted May 24, 2023 Her death is a SHOCK even if she was 83 years old and she had some health problems. I was thinking that she would have some years ahead again...Unfortunately no ! So sad ! A true global icon, the biggest loss in the music world this year so far ! 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Clorox Bleachman 2,402 Posted May 24, 2023 I hate to be the one to bring this up, but are we sure she died from her illness? All we've been told is that she'd been ill for years and died at home. She talked in the past about assisted suicide. Makes me wonder if she finally went through with it. She seemed happy last month but you never know with chronic pain, and having achieved everything she could have wanted in life. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, i agree but some or them are younger + I don’t feel like they have the Same fame as Diana, Dolly, Cher and Tina. The four of them are legends that everybody knows in some ways whereas the ones you mentioned are more « niche » names for music enthusiast I feel. I can be wrong though 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
