I initially included Whitney Houston on this quiz, but I learned that the official cause of death was drowning, which came as a result of a cocaine overdose. In this case, the evidence is not strong enough to determine whether or not she committed suicide, so I decided to leave her off of this quiz.

Tchaikovsky's death hasn't been PROVEN as a suicide. It's a speculation and a controversy.
