Probably because we have that subconsciousness that reacts to things that happen around us or we are just humans, we mourn the death of famous people we have never met before.

All over the world, when influential and famous people die, we are - once again - reminded that this earth is not our home and that we must prepare for our last day on earth.

Have you ever mourned the death of a famous person you never met? Yes, I will go first.

She was Mrs. Dora Akunyili. Apart from championing the war against fake drugs that primarily targeted her own people, Mrs. Dora was not scared of saying the right thing at all times, especially during the late President Yar'adua's health saga.

So, have you ever genuinely mourned a famous person whom you never met? If so, who and why?

I actually felt the death of Michael Jackson and cried like a baby when I heard the news because I was such a huge fan of MJ and tried to copy his dance moves to the point I was being called MJ Jr in my area back then. This just gives me nostalgic feelings of my glorious childhood. Thanks a lot for giving us a good shower during our childhood.
