Life is not only very unpredictable, but it’s also very fragile and these last photographs prove just that.
When it comes to living on your own, you never realize how difficult things may turn out to be in the end. And that’s the beauty or shall we say programming of this world. In the same way, life is very fragile and when people tell you that it alters in the blink of a second, they aren’t lying.
You never know where you end up, how you end up, or at what point life gives you access to leave this world. But one thing is for sure. You can never take it for granted. And that’s because the moment you do, that’s when it all begins to alter in a fraction of a second.
While the world of celebs and glitz and glamour might excite you sometimes, it’s definitely more hyped than it should be. Just like any other ordinary individual, celebs are no exception to the norm. And death is inevitable for them too, just like it is for anyone else.
Therefore, we thought it would be interesting to see some of the last photographs taken of the most iconic celebrities. And that was right before they passed away.

Certainly, this was a complication of his AIDS illness.
