Celebrities & Unusual Deaths

Everybody dies, but not everybody dies an unnatural death, and very few people are famous.
Those criteria combined make for some interesting headlines, and even more interesting history. Many celebrities died unusual, even bizarre deaths under equally strange circumstances.

Marylin Monroe

Few famous deaths are so hotly contested as that of Miss Monroe. At 36 years old, Marylin may not have been young anymore, but this blonde bombshell showed little signs of stopping. That’s partly the reason so many people were confused by her sudden death, which was ruled “probable suicide.” She was found dead in her bedroom on August 5th, 1962, and the cause was quickly ruled an overdose. Conspiracy theorists have gone rabid over this ever since. Rumours about her and then President Kennedy abounded at the time, even though the guy was married to the foxy Jackie O.
