He was on one of the early Pop Idol shows, he did a truly cringe-worthy rendition of Hit Me Baby One More Time:

As you say, 41 is too young.

King of Persia? I thought he died centuries, nay millenia ago

Remember those good old days where every day someone else dropped dead unexpectedly?
No, me neither

I think this is because the number of ‘celebrities’ massively expanded from the late nineties onwards with reality TV, gossip mags, more TV channels needing cheap filler content and the advent of social media. We perceive more celebrities dying young just because there are more of them than there ever were.

That’s my guess, though if there’s a serial killer stalking pointless d list celebrities to off then I’m a fan.

RIP Darius
