3. Bill Hicks
Bill Hicks was a legendary comedian whose blunt, straight-to-the-point style of comedy that offended lots of people. He was extremely critical of the current political structure, and often talked about parts of society that no one ever really considered were bad until he pointed just how absurd they were. He also loved to talk about conspiracy theories in his routines, something many other comedians shied away from because of the difficulty of making these types of subjects funny.
Bill Hicks died of pancreatic cancer at age 32 in 1994. There was little controversy surrounding his death at the time, but eventually one of the wildest celebrity death conspiracy theories ever started to emerge. First of all, pancreatic cancer is pretty rare in people under 70. Hicks also has a very striking resemblance to political pundit Alex Jones, who is a massive conspiracy theorist who talks about the same kinds of things that Bill Hicks was obsessed with. Why would he do this? Who knows, but the resemblance is definitely striking.
