Yeah it's getting to that point where, as someone born in the 90's, these are
our celebrities that are passing now. Michael Jackson and others are sad, but I was never old enough to really be a part of the craze. Not gonna lie, I and my musically inclined friends were big Glee fans for the first part of the series; this is one of the first times where the star of a show that I personally watched and enjoyed live while it was airing, has passed.

Acey, just how old are you?
I imagine it will be all over FB tomorrow. I think the news hit too late tonight for most people I know that follow the show. Very sad, so young.

Norm!
There was no doubt that he was a pretty talented guy. If you go through the web, there was also no doubt that he was a guy who had problems.
Very sad to see someone so young go.

Michael Jackson was by far the biggest blow for me of all celebrity deaths.

He was dating his co star Lea Michele. She called him her best friend long before they were dating.
Sad. Talented guy.

Co-star Matt Morrison hints that they were to wed, internet rumours saying it could have been as early as this summer.

By all accounts, he was a great guy. Apparently he looked to be doing well, which often seems the case in deaths like these. So sad.
