Marvin Lee Aday, better known by his nom de plume Meatloaf, has died of Covid at the age of 74. He was anti-vaccine.
I liked his first album, Bat out of Hell, pretty much everyone did, his turn as Eddy on Rocky Horror was good, and his role as Robert Paulson in Fight Club was excellent.
He should have gotten the f%$#ing vaccine:
Meat Loaf, the singer and actor best known for his bestselling Bat Out of Hell albums and roles in films as varied as The Rocky Horror Picture Show and Fight Club, died Thursday at the age of 74.
The news was confirmed by the singer’s family in a post on his official Facebook page. A cause of death was not given.
“Our hearts are broken to announce that the incomparable Meat Loaf passed away tonight surrounded by his wife Deborah, daughters Pearl and Amanda, and close friends,” the family wrote. “We know how much he meant to so many of you and we truly appreciate all of the love and support as we move through this time of grief in losing such an inspiring artist and beautiful man. We thank you for your understanding of our need for privacy at this time.”
Bummer.
*Not my bon mot. JR at the Stellarparthenon BBS came up with it.
