Celebs you forgot died in the 90s: The 1990s is considered one of the better times of the 20th century. CGI in the film industry had started to gain traction, some of the best music was released, and there were plenty of interesting and weird toys that children could buy. Some of the greatest movies, like Pulp Fiction, Titanic, and The Matrix also came out during this period. At the time, the world had advanced tremendously in technology. Cellular phones, color television, and live television were becoming norms, and the World Wide Web was starting strong. Plus, the infant mortality rate had dropped almost 90%!

Sadly, however, not everything was perfect. The 90s came after a time when drugs were everywhere, and the world was still thawing after The Cold War. It was also the time the Gulf War began. And death, the one thing that all humans will have in common, definitely wasn’t taking a break during this decade. Due to drugs, wars, gang violence, and natural causes, death kept taking and taking like it always has. And, of course, celebrities were no exception. A lot of influential people died during this decade — some of natural causes, some by drug overdoses, and a few even by homicide.
These are some of the 15 celebrities who died in the 1990s.
15. Princess Diana (August 31st, 1997)
Diana was the first wife of Charles, the Prince of Wales, and a prominent figure in the British Royal Family. Born into royalty, Diana married Charles on July 29th, 1981. Her wedding was remembered for her 25-foot long gown. She bore two sons, William and Harry, and was married to Charles until their divorce in 1996. Diana was very active in charities involving AIDS and cancer, just to name a few.
On August 31st, 1997, the world was shocked to hear that Diana had died in a car accident. The driver, Henri Paul, and Diana’s partner, Dodi Fayed, also died in the crash. There were many theories as to how the crash occurred, ranging from Paul being inebriated behind the wheel to an actual assassination. To this day, Diana’s image still influences the royal family.
