I tend to agree with your sentiment on this. I recall making a similar comment to friends. in the aftermath of JFK, Jr.'s death

Maybe the sad truth is summed up by saying that when all was said and done, it was no real surprise.

"And they, since they
Were not the one dead, turned to their affairs."

Always sad when someone takes their own life (or loses their life otherwise - especially so young). Agree with most of the sentiments already stated though...

You're correct of course. Brandi was initially famous for actually doing something - playing poker - even though she ultimately may have become more famous for off-felt exploits.

JFK, Jr., on the other hand, was more like Paris Hilton, "famous for being famous" only known at all because of who his father was.

Brandi, out of despair, killed only herself. JFK, jr. killed himself *and* 2 others with his own stupidity.

Apologies to Brandi.
