I agree - great, but sad quiz. You could do another - Elvis, Kennedys, John Candy . . .

It's scary that this quiz posted the day Amy Winehouse dies at 27. Creepy.

Just in case anyone is wondering, it was a total coincidence. This quiz has been on the schedule for two months, and I didn't hear that Amy Winehouse had died until just now.

Wow!

Buddy Holley is the correct spelling. Plus, the Big Bopper and Richie Valens died in the same plane crash. All those answers should be accepted.

you could have alot more i.e. Elvis, the Kennedys, Big Pun, Proof, Amy Winehouse, Heath Ledger, Big L, John Candy, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Joan of Arc, etc

winehouse just died lol, and obviously this wasn't intended for a complete list. good quiz.

@ryoga7r- The clue says age 22, so no, Bopper and Valens should not be accepted, and it's spelled Holly.
2011-07-23 | reply

I agree with griffey. Buddy Holly is the correct spelling of his stage name. It's only Holley when using his given name, Charles Holley. And the clue says 22.

Surprising to have no Kennedys or Heath Ledger on here.

You could have also included Cass Elliot. I like the Joan of Arc suggestion.

the age cut off seems to be 40. JFK, Elvis and John Candy were all older than this. Surprised Princess Diana wasn't on here. Thought she was popular in the USA.

pretty cool that you included some of the infamous 27 Club, Relatively unheard of but you should included dave alexander, the bassist for the stooges who died at 27 from pulmonary edema which was caused by his excessive drinking

Or Robert Johnson, the original inductee of the 27 club!

Am I the only one who thought it was funny that 18% of the people missed Jesus?

Kristen Pfaff, of the band Hole, also died at 27. As did the legendary blues musician Robert Johnson and Brian Jones, early member of the Rolling Stones. They, along with Amy Winehouse and those mentioned in the quiz, round out the 27 Club.

Very interesting quiz! Brittany Murphy could also be added.
