A few days late but here we go! Get your predictions in! Whoever puts a name forward first gets the point if that celebrity shuffles off to the Big Pap Stroll in the Sky by 11.59pm on 31st December 2023. Try not to get greedy by posting a long list naming as many celebrities as you can think of. It goes without saying that helping your nomination along is not allowed and will result in instant disqualification and a visit from your local law enforcement agencies, so play nice (I'm joking about that - I hope ). At the end of 2023 I may give out a bonus point to anyone who correctly guesses a name that is totally random and out of the left field if it's especially shocking or surprising (so nobody very old or very ill who could reasonably expected to pass away this year or is known for being troubled/an active and/or spiralling addict, etc). Correct guesses for 2022 were:Queen Elizabeth II ( loftybike ) Aaron Carter ( funky ) Edit: Making this a Sticky until the end of the year so we can all find it when we need it.

Jez Renner (but I hope not) Sharon Osbourne Kanye West
There seems to be a 2 for 1 sale on 50+ year old rappers from heart attacks.
ETA - maybe not Charles but Camilla? Meghan in "suspicious circumstances" & H is welcomed back into the fold despite the RF (bill & Cathy mainly) ordering the hit. Jamie Spears.

These are the last 2 left from my Saturday night TV lineup growing up. This will make me so sad.
Trump 🤞
Rae Dawn Chung no real reason, her name just popped into my head.

ron desantis is my wishful thinking one because i think he's more dangerous than trump, and death might be the only thing standing between him and winning the 2024 election. trump because he should always be on the list regardless. michael caine (god i hope not but let's face it he's old) jack nicholson jane fonda (god i hope not)

Good guesses from everyone, I'd named Jack, Jane and Camilla, but you're faster. Trump and Putin are my wishlist. King Harald of Norway Juan Carlos of Spain Dolly Partons husband Dean Sophia Loren
More or less left field:
Madonna Eric Dane Tom Cruise BUT! Diana Ross, Dolly and Cher have to be immortal under all circumstances!!!

Trump & Putin, maybe not at the same day, but that would be a day. Both over-shadowing the other's death. Madonna (left field) Bill Cosby Jimmy Carter, because he's what, 98 now? Ezra Miller Cara Delevigne Andrew Tate Tina Turner (hope not) Ozzy Bruce Willis Kanye

Obvious choices (can't do this without making a list)
Norman Lear (100!)
and celebs in their nineties like:
Henry Kissinger (99) Jimmy Carter (98) Eva Marie Saint (98) Dick van Dyke (97) Lee Grant (97, despite her Jennifer Anniston hair and PS, ugh) Mel Brooks (96) Tony Bennett (96) David Attenborough (96) Harry Belafonte (95) Gina Lolobrigida (95) Rosanlynn Carter (95, Jimmy Carter's wife) Burt Bacharach (94) Gene Hackman (92) Robert Wagner (92) Clint Eastwood (92)
octogenarians: Joan Collins (89, 90 in May, who for the first time in her life seems to be getting older) Yoko Ono (89, has not been seen in public much since she had a stroke) Quincy Jones (89, from what I've seen and heard now wheelchair bound) Brigitte Bardot (88, has not been seen in public for ages and was already not too healthy about a decade ago) Shirley MacLaine (88) Alain Delon (87, I believe he had a stroke several years ago, too) Warren Beatty (85, if only because I have a feeling that if Shirley goes before him, he'll soon follow. The other way around, not so much. But he looked very frail in the most recent photos I've seen of him) Jane Fonda (85) Tina Turner (83, because she's had several severe health issues in the past decade)
Michael J. Fox (61, I hope not, but his Parkinson's is obviously at a very advanced stage now) Wendy Williams (58)

I'm going to add Kirk Cameron as my wildcard, just because I'd like to see him finally disappear up his own arsehole. Or smote by heavenly lightning. Either would do.
