Lil' Peep has just died from a Drug overdose.
Who?
Edit: just googled. Had never heard of this person before and by the sounds of it I won't be rushing to listen to what I may have missed.
Nah Neith! Stuff.co.nz has though....

Charles Manson, dead at 83.
(He won't get to see the Tarantino movie. Kinda sad.)

Don't worry, I'm pretty sure Quentin won't leave her out of the movie.

Guilty, sure. He was never going to get a death penalty conviction. The ideas were all his, certainly. But he wasn't at the scene of the crimes, let alone pulled a trigger or stabbed anybody. He was a psychopathic leader of psychopathic followers. KInda like a mob boss.
-
He did get convicted and sentenced to death. He was lucky with his timing...
On January 25, 1971, Manson was convicted of first-degree murder for directing the deaths of the Tate/LaBianca victims. He was sentenced to death, but this was automatically commuted to life in prison after California's Supreme Court invalidated all death sentences prior to 1972.

Cali dropped death penalty, but it got re-instated. It would have been a continual appeals process. He ordered the hits, but he didn't execute them. He was hearing voices. Okay - Beatles records. A psychopath hearing voices who tells other psychos to conduct murder -- they would have to have subpoenaed John Lennon before putting Charlie in an ele ctric chair.
-
if he got the death penalty I doubt very few people would still be talking about him today, as it is, his death was one of the stories in the news headlines on TV and articles on our 'news' online as well.
His infamy lives on, which is what someone like him wants.

Aretha Franklin is still alive
By Dianne de Guzman, SFGATE Updated 9:24 pm, Tuesday, November 21, 2017
Aretha Franklin would like you all to know that she is very much alive, thank you.
The singer issued a statement to Us Weekly Tuesday night, telling the entertainment magazine that the rumors of her death were untrue.
"I'm doing well generally, all test have come back good," she said in an email to the magazine. "I've lost a lot of weight due to side effects of medicine, it affects your weight ... Thanxxxx for your concern."
Franklin, 75, began trending on Twitter Tuesday morning when a fake Twitter account pretending to speak for the Queen of Soul announced that the singer had passed away late Monday night.

"I played it for Crosby and he said, "Don't sing about that, it's not funny"."
"He wasn't what you'd call a song-writer; he was more like a song-spewer."
"When he got turned down, he got pisssed off. He didn't take rejection well."
-
I was more surprised he was still alive, but Jim Nabors died today. "Gomer Pyle," AKA "Private Pyle," the original - not the "Full Metal Jacket" version. Nabors was 87. I seem to recall he had a post-career as a singer selling CDs on TV to your grandma. R.I.P.
RIP 2017
