Stars who died too soon
The death of those who are still too early to die is always sad and unfair. The actors and singers who are waiting for you to continue the article were the favorites of millions and the breakers of women's and men's hearts, but fate decreed that they passed away too soon.
Some died in a car accident, others under completely ridiculous circumstances, and others were killed by drugs and illness.
Zhanna Friske
July 8, 1974 - June 15, 2015Two years of fighting an inoperable brain tumor, the support of friends, colleagues and fans, the hope for a miracle - everything ended in June 2015, when the singer, young mother and wife Zhanna Friske died without regaining consciousness.
Michael Jackson
August 29, 1958 - June 25, 2009Just like his life, the death of the king of pop was shrouded in speculation and intrigue. The police and the Drug Enforcement Administration took up the investigation into the death of the artist. The case lasted two years, and in November 2011, Jackson's personal doctor, Conrad Murray, was found guilty of involuntary manslaughter: the cardiologist injected the artist with too much of the potent anesthetic propofol. The doctor was sentenced to 4 years in prison but released early in 2013.
Gennady Bachinsky
September 1, 1971 - January 12, 2008The famous radio host Maximum died in a car accident. Gennady Bachinsky, having decided to overtake the truck, began to overtake in the oncoming lane, which was prohibited by the rules, as a result of which he collided with a minibus in which there were three people who were seriously injured as a result of the collision. Gennady died on the spot from his injuries. He left behind a wife and two children.
Whitney Houston
August 9, 1963 - February 11, 2012On the eve of the 54th Grammy ceremony, the unconscious singer was found in a room at the Beverly Hilton hotel in Beverly Hills. The cause of death was the use of a cocktail of cocaine, marijuana and sedatives, as a result of which Whitney's heart could not stand it, and she drowned unconscious in the bathroom.
Roman Trachtenberg
September 28, 1968 - November 20, 2009TV presenter and showman Roman Trakhtenberg died at the age of 42 from a heart attack that began during the broadcast on Mayak radio. According to the conclusion of the forensic experts, the detected anomaly of the heart could serve as the cause. Roman Trakhtenberg left a young wife and two sons.
Paul Walker
September 12, 1973 - November 30, 2013Ironically, actor Paul Walker, racing driver and star of the Fast & Furious auto franchise, died in a car accident along with his friend Roger Rodas, who lost control of the Porsche.
Mikhail Gorshenev
August 7, 1973 - July 19, 2013The heart of the leader of the punk band "The King and the Jester" could not stand it: the artist abused alcohol and morphine.
Heath Ledger
April 4, 1979 - January 22, 2008Undoubtedly, Ledger was a fairly popular actor even before The Dark Knight. "10 Reasons I Hate", "The Story of a Knight" and other tapes made it clear that Heath is an outstanding talent, and the scandalous "Brokeback Mountain" also emphasized his courage and uncompromisingness, fearlessness in front of any taboo topics. But the young Australian showed true class by reincarnating as the Joker, a sinister psychopathic killer, whose image has since taken pride of place on numerous Internet demotivators. And shortly after the premiere, Ledger was found dead in his New York apartment from an overdose of sleeping pills. The actor was 28 years old.
Murat Nasyrov
December 13, 1969 - January 19, 2007Singer Murat Nasyrov fell from the balcony of the 5th floor. The causes of the incident remained unknown. Journalists repeatedly wrote that Nasyrov used drugs, but an autopsy of the body did not reveal traces of either drugs or alcohol. According to the official version, it was a suicide in a state of depression: the version was confirmed by Murat's daughter, who witnessed the incident.
Philip Seymour Hoffman
July 23, 1967 - February 2, 2014Actor Philip Seymour Hoffman struggled with heroin addiction for many years. He suffered from the habit in his student years, but was able to overcome himself and did not use any drugs for 20 years. In 2012, there was talk in celebrity circles that Hoffman had returned to his addictions while going through a strained relationship with his wife, Marianne O'Donnell.

Robin Williams
July 21, 1951 - August 11, 2014Over the years, the actor has suffered from severe depression. He fought other demons as well, as back in the late 1970s he was addicted to drugs and alcohol. A terrible blow for Robin Williams was the death of his close friend actor John Belushi in March 1982. Belushi died of an overdose, and Robin himself did not touch the drugs after that. It was much more difficult to overcome the passion for alcohol. The period of abstinence lasted as much as 20 years, but a few months before the suicide, Williams began to drink again due to depression, presumably caused by developing Parkinson's disease. In August last year, the actor hanged himself.
Sergei Bodrov Jr.
December 27, 1971 - September 20, 2002There is probably no need to tell what the duology "Brother" has become for the Russian audience. Bodrov became the undisputed idol of youth, the hero of a generation, a symbol of the 90s. From the performer of the role of the "people's avenger" Danila Bagrov, who overshadowed all his peers for five years, many new interesting roles were expected, but he was in a hurry to realize himself as a director. In 2002, Sergei went to the Caucasus to shoot his second film "The Messenger" and died along with the entire film crew during an avalanche in the Karmadon Gorge. Bodrov Jr. was 30 years old.
Amy Winehouse
September 14, 1983 - July 23, 2011The legendary Amy joined the infamous 27 Club four years ago. The singer, who lived on the edge, died due to alcohol poisoning: the level of alcohol in her blood exceeded the maximum permissible concentration five times.

Brittany Murphy
November 10, 1977 - December 20, 2009The 32-year-old actress had a cardiac arrest. The cause of the tragedy was a severe form of pneumonia - acute inflammation of the lungs, complicated by an overdose of drugs.
Andrei Panin
May 28, 1962 - March 6, 2013The forensic experts who examined the body of the deceased actor had speculation about the murder of Panin. Upon the death of the artist, a criminal case was initiated, which, however, was closed at the beginning of this year due to the lack of corpus delicti. The cause of Panin's death is still a mystery.
