TopicDoes it feel like we don't mourn dead celebrities as much anymore?

When was the last big death that rocked the world? Queen Elizabeth? Okay. Betty White? Yeah they did that TV special for her...

But Coolio also died and people kinda just had one day for that. Then they moved on. It'll trend on Reddit for one day and then be over. When did things change?

I feel like in 2016 we still had reverence for a celebrity life lost. 2020... Kobe's death was a pretty big deal. Maybe this is a post-coronavirus thing, not caring about celebrity deaths as much.
Because you don't actually personally know any of these people, it's weird to mourn them as though they were close family.
