6. Elvis Presley
Elvis was the most influential artist of the 20th century.
Many later stars claimed direct paternity and inspiration from him. Although the heritage of Elvis is one we cherish even today, an incredible controversy marked the end of his life.
Elvis’s death is probably the best-documented death of a celebrity from a drug overdose. An impressive number of different drugs (14) were found in the blood of the artist, indicating that intake on a daily basis was the norm.
It seems evident that the person to blame in such scenario is not only the end user but also the physician which overlooks such a habit.
