Which celebrity's death made you cry?
@deenadingding Bottle Shock is one of my fave movies and his best line in that movie was this one in the clip. the clip has foul language that might be offensive (so pls dont watch it if you are offended by bad language), but I thought it was funny (and I am not offended by language).

@sinbach I was a bartender for over 20 yrs. I'm not easily offended. LOL
@deenadingding - yes!
I can tell we would get along great!
@sinbach We do. I met you at reSurge.
@sinbach LOL. That was good. I've never even heard of the movie. I'm going to have to watch it. Thanks!!!
@sinbach Whitney Houston. Even her beautiful funeral made me cry (it was happier than a regular Finnish worship service). I watched on YouTube a friend of hers telling about a meeting with her shortly before her death, how she was longing to live for the Lord and how she was touched by the Holy Spirit. I have watched two documentaries about her. I think it can help us not to judge her... ok she made bad and sinful choices, but at the same time she had always a relationship with the Lord. She was a victim of child abuse, and one of her female relatives, who used to babysit her and her brothers, sexually abused her. Then she was seduced by her best friend and had a lesbian relationship with her for a while. Her brother introduced her to drugs in her teens. Bobby Brown was not the best husband, and they were doing drugs together. At the same time she was put on a pedestal, and there were high expectations on her. She felt that she was never good enough - even if she was adored. Etc.
@tanjaostman Body Guard is one of my favorite movies and I LOVED Kevin Costners speech at her funeral. I do not know why, but I always thought Keven Costner and Whitney belonged together. Maybe that is the power of cinema? Because they were one of the best couples EVER - and no Bobby Brown was no good. no no good.
That was a sad day when she passed.
As Kevin Costner said - she was a song bird.
@sinbach not a worldly celebrity, but Keith Green passing broke my heart
@sinbach Wes Craven
@kristawagner don't know if I ever saw any of the movies, but I am familiar with the books. And I do think that you told me about reading them.
@Rinati actually, Elvis is the reason I asked this question! haha. so funny you said that, because I just watched a documentary about him and was incredibly saddened when they arrived at his death. Not sure why. I am not an Elvis fan, have never been an Elvis fan, but I do remember listening to his hymns on 8-track when I first got saved.
@sinbach
Justice Antonin Scalia
@lynnexxa that was a huge shock!
@sinbach Heath Ledger
@Laurielove1 yea, that one hit me too. the story of him going deep into the Joker character was troubling and dark. I watched Dark Night and I think that there was a something more to what Health put into it than mere method acting. I think that he gave part of his soul for that part. As I watched him in that movie - I felt that his presence on screen wasn't just talent - it was spiritual. dare I say, the movie was spiritual. I walked away from that movie feeling a heaviness and spiritually unclean.
@sinbach Alan Rickman
