The lives of celebrities attract the attention of millions of people. Many fans think they know everything about their idols, but some on-screen stars will forever remain a mystery. Their deaths gave rise to many conspiracy theories. Let’s talk about some of these.
Marilyn Monroe (36 years old)
The death of the most popular blonde is still unsolved. The actor’s body, with a telephone handset in his hand, was found in his home in Los Angeles on the night of August 4-5, 1962. It is not known whether Marilyn Monroe actually committed suicide by poisoning herself with barbiturates or was killed by American intelligence services. After all, at that time the screen star was dating US President John Kennedy. It looks like Monroe may know some of the Kennedy family secrets. Also, barbiturate poisoning was accompanied by convulsions and vomiting, and the actor lay face down on a pillow with his legs and arms extended along his body, resembling a violent death. In any case, many fans believe this version.
Princess Diana (36 years old)
Princess Diana’s tragic death in a car accident on August 31, 1997 left people mourning around the world. On that fateful night, Diana Spencer was returning from dinner with her lover Dodi Al-Fayed, the son of an Egyptian billionaire. The couple planned to rest at an apartment in Paris and fly to London the next morning. According to one version, they were intercepted on the road by a white Fiat Uno, as a result of which their black Mercedes lost control and crashed into a concrete pillar. The driver and Dodi died instantly. Doctors fought for Diana’s life but could not save her. The only survivor was the princess’ bodyguard. His death has been surrounded by many conspiracy theories due to numerous inconsistencies in the investigation. Some fans believe the royal family conspired with MI6 to eliminate Diana, who put the crown in jeopardy with her scandalous interview with the BBC in 1995. There were also rumors that Diana was allegedly pregnant by Dodi Al-Fayed, and the royal family could not allow the crown princes to be even remotely related to their Muslim brothers. By the way, Al-Fayed’s father also openly supported this version. Later, Princess Diana’s former butler found a letter in which she wrote that someone was trying to kill her.
Michael Jackson (50 years old)
According to the official version, the King of Pop died on June 25, 2009 due to an overdose of drugs, including the side effects of propofol. The court sentenced the singer’s doctor to prison for murder. However, fans of the superstar are sure that his death was staged: in recent years, Michael Jackson’s reputation has been greatly damaged by scandals, as a result of which he was on the verge of destruction. The singer planned to improve his financial situation by organizing a farewell tour called This Is It, but he did not manage to hold even a single concert. However, after his death, insurance covered the losses and the profits from music sales provided his heirs with a comfortable life. Fans believe that their idol continues to live somewhere away from the public.
Gianni Versace (50 years old)
The death of legendary fashion designer Gianni Versace raises more questions than answers. “I’m not sure we’ll ever know the real motive,” Miami Police Chief Richard Borrero said. The life of the founder of the Versace fashion empire ended tragically on July 15, 1997, on the threshold of the Casa Casuarina villa in Miami Beach. The designer was shot twice at close range by 27-year-old American Andrew Cunanan, an escaped serial killer. The perpetrator subsequently committed suicide, so the reasons for the incident remain unclear. There were rumors that the man took this step to find out who infected him with HIV. However, the autopsy showed that Cunanan did not have the virus. The Versace family also believes that the designer and the killer did not know each other. It remains unclear whether there was something in the fashionista’s life and work that caused him to want to kill her in such cold blood.
Tupac Shakur (25 years old)
The murder of Tupac Shakur remains one of the most controversial events in hip hop history. The rapper passed away on September 13, 1996, at the age of 25. On that fateful evening, the artist was driving to one of the Los Angeles clubs with his manager Suge Knight. On the way, they were overtaken by a white Cadillac with several shots fired through its window. Knight, who was injured in the head, managed to survive, but Tupac Shakur died in the hospital where he was taken due to his injuries. The hip-hop star was cremated the next day. This fuss caused fans to question his death. The truth is that Tupac Shakur directly states in his posthumous album “The Don Killuminati: The 7 Day Theory” that his death was staged. Other fans are sure that Suge Knight ordered the murder of their idol. Selfish motives were attributed to him. Then there were rumors that Tupac Shakur planned to terminate his contract with the Death Row Records music label, which would mean the loss of rights to profits from his work. So far the case remains unsolved.
Natalie Wood (43 years old)
In November 1981, West Side Story star Natalie Wood went on a yacht cruise off the California coast with her husband Robert Wagner, his friend Christopher Walken, and the ship’s captain, Dennis Davern. However, they returned to shore without him. A few days later, the actor’s body was found in the water. The men all denied involvement in the tragedy, claiming that Natalie Wood had gone to bed in the evening and her cottage was empty the next morning. It was later determined that the cause of death was “drowning”, but 30 years later the public learned new details. Captain Dennis Davern admitted in his memoirs “Goodbye Natalie, Farewell Splendour” that he was forced to support Robert Wagner’s version under pressure from lawyers during the investigation. It is revealed that he witnessed a fight between Natalie Wood and her husband, implying that the girl was killed by her husband. His testimony reopened the case, but the investigation has so far found no basis for Robert Wagner’s arrest.
Bruce Lee (32 years old)
Legendary martial artist and actor Bruce Lee died on July 20, 1973, during the filming of the deadly film Game of Death. Before he died, the man complained of a headache and took the Equagestic tablet. But suddenly his condition deteriorated sharply and he died on the set. The official cause of death was an allergy to the drug or hyponatremia, brain edema that can occur as a result of a lack of fluid in the body due to a lack of sodium in the blood. The fact is that six months before the tragedy, the actor had his sweat glands removed in order to look aesthetically pleasing in front of the camera. This can trigger heatstroke. But fans are sure that the death was violent: Bruce Lee allegedly refused to pay the Yakuza some of the profits from films in which he was killed. Another conspiracy theory says that Bruce Lee was killed by a Buddhist monk dressed as an extra who dealt him a fatal blow for allegedly revealing the secrets of kung fu during rehearsals.
David Carradine (72 years old)
The circumstances surrounding the death of Kill Bill star David Carradine remain unclear. The 72-year-old actor was found hanged in his hotel room in Bangkok. The investigation concluded that death was the result of unintentional suicide, or rather masturbation: one of the ropes was tied to his neck, and the other to the actor’s genitals. Carradine’s wife, Marina Anderson, rejected this version: “I’m sure there was a murder. “I have no doubt that David was attacked from behind and strangled.”
Ruslana Korshunova (20 years old)
Model Ruslana Korshunova was called “Russian Rapunzel” because of her beauty. The girl was shining on covers and catwalks around the world; many still remember her in the commercial for Nina Ricci perfume. She was predicted to have a great future but suddenly on June 28, 2008, her life ended tragically. Forensic experts determined that the girl jumped from the ninth-floor window of her Manhattan apartment. The mother and fans of the top model did not believe the version of suicide, since the girl did not leave a suicide note. British television producer Peter Pomerantsev linked the girl’s death with the Rose of the Earth sect, which the model visited for three months. But nothing could be proven at that time. Finding the girl’s body, the janitor noticed that Korshunova’s luxurious blond hair was cut. A year later, Ruslana’s friend, model Anastasia Drozdova, with whom she attended personal development trainings at Rose of the World, committed suicide. Ruslana Korshunova died four days before her birthday. She was only 20 years old.
Brittany Murphy (32 years old)
Brittany Murphy’s death shocked fans. The Clueless star was just 32 when his body was found without any signs of life. Forensic experts concluded that the cause of death was a heart attack caused by the use of antidepressants, painkillers and antipsychotics. But the actress’s father decided to conduct an independent investigation: a laboratory report showed the presence of ten potentially toxic heavy metals in Murphy’s hair. But it is even more strange that six months later, the actress’s husband, Simon Monjack, died under similar circumstances. There is no longer any doubt: his daughter was murdered. Fans, meanwhile, also shared the father’s version, suggesting that Brittany Murphy and his wife could be eliminated because of the couple’s alleged support for former Customs and Border Protection agent Julia Davis, a government informant. True, the court was not interested in the evidence found.
