Who wants to hear a story about how stupid I am
Isnt that why we’re on this website
Every single time I hear someone reference Madonna as still being alive (like when they mention her Tumblr or Instagram), my brain immediately goes, “wait, no. Madonna is very definitely dead.” Like, I am CERTAIN that Madonna is dead. It’s a rock solid fact of my existence, there’s simply no way she’s alive, that’s “proof you’ve woken up in a parallel universe” kind of shit.
Madonna is not dead. But I keep forgetting that, and being dead certain that she is. I remember watching documentaries about her, about her history of being abused at home and in the industry, about her courage and skill and how she was taken advantage of, about what an iconic actress she was. I remember the outrage when that Playboy jerk got buried next to her as “the ultimate blonde”.
Now, people more astute than me might have noticed that I have confused Madonna with Marilyn Monroe. I usually don’t get this far in the proceedings. I usually go, “oh, I must be confusing her with someone else. Who is it… oh, Marilyn! It’s the M’s that must be tripping me up!
“I’ve confused Madonna with Marilyn Manson!”
Who is also still alive, though I genuinely wish he wasn’t.
I was confused by this reaction so I googled Marilyn Manson and it turns out I have also confused Marilyn Manson with Eddie Izzard.
How many celebrity victims with this identity trolly claim before you find someone actually dead?
#I get those two confused too 😭#also. this is a safe space so I will ask#is marilyn manson not a serial killer
WHEN I REALISED MY MARILYN MONROE MISTAKE I ALSO THOUGHT THIS but no apparently he is a singer and I don’t know what the serial killer’s name is
Charles Manson. Who is in fact dead.
To be fair, Marilyn Manson deliberately chose his stage name to reference Marilyn Munroe and Charles Manson, so he wants you to think of them when you say it. It’s kind of the point!
okay but Eddie Izzard?
I just hear the name Marilyn Manson and I think “oh yeah that’s a genderpunk rockstar name”
And yes I did think that Eddie Izzard was a rockstar. I… may have gotten her a little bit confused with Ozzie Osborne.
Ok. Well Eddie Izzard is alive.
But you did finally stumble upon someone who is dead. Apparently Ozzie Osborne died literally 2 days ago.
Great post everyone
She’s been dead since 2011.
Also Ozzie Osbourne isn’t dead.
In order of appearance in this post:
Madonna: pop singer, some of her most popular songs include Like A Virgin and Material Girl. Alive.
Marilyn Monroe: actress and model, known for her work in movies as a “bombshell blonde” and for her modeling, particularly with Playboy. See OP’s original post for details of her life. Died of drug overdose.
Marilyn Manson: singer/songwriter of metal/rock music (per Wikipedia, do not come at me about music genres.) Some of his more popular songs include The Beautiful People and Personal Jesus. Long history of controversy, including sexual abuse allegations. Alive.
Eddie Izzard: stand-up comedian and actress. Some of her more popular films include Ocean’s 12, Ocean’s 13, and Valkyrie. Known for running marathons to raise money for charities supported disadvantaged youth in the UK. Alive.
Charles Manson: serial killer and cult leader. Known for founding the Manson Family, a doomsday cult who went on a murder spree in 1969. Racist. Not worth spending any more time on. Died in prison from colon cancer.
Ozzy Osbourne: hard rock/metal singer, known for his work with the band Black Sabbath. Best known songs include No More Tears and Crazy Train. Has been the victim of many “this celebrity died!!” rumor storms, but at present, Alive.
Amy Winehouse: singer/songwriter, Wikipedia describes her music as “soul” (again, don’t come at me about genres.) Best known songs include Rehab and You Know I’m No Good. Died from drug overdose.
Best part is that none of these people look anything like each other
Just to add some more confusion to this the reason Max thought Ozzy was dead was because there was a Twitter death hoax that got picked up by some fans not realizing it was a fake post and it snowballed a bit.
…this is how I find out Aaron Carter died, huh?
