Leonard Cohen, the hugely influential singer and songwriter whose work spanned five decades, died at the age of 82. Cohen's label, Sony Music Canada, confirmed his death on the singer's Facebook page [facebook.com].


"It is with profound sorrow we report that legendary poet, songwriter and artist, Leonard Cohen has passed away," the statement read. "We have lost one of music's most revered and prolific visionaries. A memorial will take place in Los Angeles at a later date. The family requests privacy during their time of grief." A cause of death was not given.

With all the other major news stories going on, this kind of got overlooked. We now have our three deaths of famous people.

Robert Vaughn, who played The Man From U.N.C.L.E., passed away the same day as Leonard Cohen.

And today it was announced that Gwen Ifill has died.

Quote :
Gwen Ifill, a co-host of the long-running "PBS NewsHour" and a noted debate moderator, has died following a battle with cancer. She was 61.


New York native Ifill graduated from Simmons College in 1977 and went on to hold positions at The Washington Post, The New York Times and NBC before joining PBS's "Washington Week in Review" in 1999.




Perhaps best known nationally for her work as a debate moderator, Ifill moderated the 2004 and 2008 vice-presidential debates that pitted Dick Cheney against John Edwards and Joe Biden against Sarah Palin. Ifill also moderated a Democratic primary debate between Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton.

If you missed SNL this week, Kate McKinnon did a very nice rendition of Hallelujah for the open.

It was lovely! I loved Kate anyway, but even more so now after hearing her sing and play the piano. Super talented lady.
