Like Matthew Perry, suddenly and without warning, Whitney Houston, Michael Jackson, Heath Ledger, Elvis Presley, Marilyn Monroe are gone
The tragic, sudden and untimely death of “Friends” star Matthew Perry has plunged his fans around the world into grief. The actor was found dead in his hot tub on the afternoon of October 28 in the Los Angeles bar district of Pacific Palisades.
But what is this “fashion” for Hollywood favorites to die tragically after mixing alcohol and pills?! Tragically, the world has lost many actors, rock stars and other celebrities to overdoses. Talents such as the legendary Elvis Presley, the iconic Marilyn Monroe, Kurt Cobain, Amy Winehouse, Prince, Whitney Houston, Heath Ledger, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Brittany Murphy, Janis Joplin and Robin Williams and many more left this world suddenly and without warning.
Along with the shocking death of Matthew Perry, many remembered that one of the most talented singers – Whitney Houston – died in an absolutely identical way. She drowned in a bathtub in a hotel in Beverly Hills in 2011. Over the years, the performer had fallen into drug addiction, which had a detrimental effect on her career. An autopsy revealed that cocaine and a heart condition led to the cardiac arrest. Whitney Houston SHOT: Instagram/Official Profile
Just 4 years later, her only daughter from her marriage to Bobby Brown, Bobbi-Kristina, was found drowned upside down in the bathtub of her home. The girl was in a coma for 6 months, but never managed to come back to life and forever remained at 22. Her autopsy also found strong drugs in her body, but it was not proven whether her death was accidental or intentional.
The life of one of the most unique in show business, Michael Jackson, was cut short by an overdose of propofol in 2009. This powerful anesthetic can be deadly when used incorrectly, as it can stop breathing. Jackson’s tragic end left not only a void in the music industry, but also many questions. His doctor was held accountable. Michael Jackson SHOT: Instagram/Official Profile
Another star who was taken too soon was Amy Winehouse. The Rehab singer struggled with alcohol and drugs throughout her career. The British singer’s battles with heavy drinking and drug use are mostly attributed to the massive media attention. In several interviews, the singer admitted that she had problems with depression and was repeatedly photographed or recorded drunk or high, with episodes of erratic behavior. Despite going to rehab several times, Amy Winehouse later died of alcohol poisoning at the age of 27. Amy Winehouse PHOTO: Instagram/Official Profile
The music realm suffered a huge loss with the sudden departure of Prince, the multi-talented musician and performer, in 2016. An innovator in every sense, Prince seemed almost alien in his ability to cross genres and dazzle audiences. However, the very mundane problem of opioid addiction led to his accidental overdose of the pain reliever fentanyl. Prince’s struggle with chronic pain and subsequent use of opiates describes a grim reality. Prince KADER: Instagram/Official Profile
Anna-Nicole Smith – the Playboy beauty, who was among the most scandalous and sexiest models in Hollywood, died at the age of 40. Despite her popularity and the success she achieved, in 2007 Anna-Nicole Smith was found dead in a hotel room, having overdosed on a lethal dose of drugs. To this day, it is suspected that she killed herself because of her son. He had died of an overdose a year earlier while visiting his mother after she had given birth to her daughter, Danielle Burkhead. Anna-Nicole Smith PHOTO: Instagram/Official Profile
The exceptionally talented Oscar-winning actor Philip Seymour Hoffman shocked Hollywood with his death. Hoffman, 46, was found dead in the bathroom of his apartment in Manhattan, New York, of a drug overdose. The actor turned out to be a hostage to a murderous habit. Hoffman started down the bad path of taking prohibited substances at the age of 22. His tragedy is another proof of the thesis: “There are no ex-addicts!”.

Heath Ledger – the American actor of Australian origin, was found dead in the bathroom of his apartment in New York on January 22, 2008. His unexpected death shook the world film community. Heath Ledger SHOT: Ex/@TheCinesthetic
The cause was an accidental overdose of oxycodone and hydrocodone, two types of prescription pain relievers. The most famous Joker of all time (sorry, Jack Nicholson) left his daughter Matilda an orphan at 2 years old and his wife – actress Michelle Williams – a widow at only 27 years old.
The list of stars who went to the light unexpectedly includes the great Elvis Presley and the iconic Marilyn Monroe. Marilyn Monroe SHOT: Ex/@MarilynMonroe
The deaths of such celebrities show that no one is immune to addiction, regardless of fame or fortune.
On a hot August evening, the lifeless body of the actress was found in her house in Los Angeles. In the hand of the tempting blonde was the phone, and next to her was an empty bottle of Nembutal (a type of barbiturate). The official version reads “probable suicide”. However, theories about Marilyn Monroe’s death continue to this day. Frank Sinatra was adamant at the time that her too colorful love life – for example with President John Kennedy – led to her early death. Elvis Presley SHOT: Instagram/@elvis
One of the most famous singers in the world, Elvis Presley, became famous in the 1940s and 1950s, but he was one of the first big stars to die in a ridiculous way. The man who made women swoon when he rolled his hips ended his life ingloriously in the toilet. At the end of his career, he became addicted to drugs, which led to his untimely death. Elvis went to the bathroom at his Graceland mansion on August 16, 1977. The King suddenly felt ill, falling over the toilet bowl into a puddle of his own vomit. It was later revealed that an extreme cocktail of drugs caused his death.
Although celebrities seem to have it all – fame, money, fortune and friends, the constant scrutiny and public attention often brings them down. A high-pressure job or a lack of personal life often leads them to relieve stress with drugs and alcohol. The body remembers the deceptive sense of escape and demands it again, subduing the mind.
Obviously, fame is not an easy thing and not everyone can carry it. All the talented people who left prematurely left a great legacy. And they probably would have had long careers if their drug overdoses hadn’t shortened their lives.
