3. Anthony Perkins
Via biography.com
Most people will remember Anthony Perkins for his role as Norman Bates in the original Psycho movies, and even though he had some suspicions that he could be HIV positive, he didn’t get tested. He worried about what it would do to his career during a time when HIV was considered extremely taboo. It wasn’t until a National Enquirer article published to the world that he was HIV positive that he went to see a doctor and did find out the truth. He passed away two years later as a result of AIDS-related complications.
