Wasn’t a fan LikeThat; but, he has gotten a lot of press over the years, so was familiar with him via his icon-status; as well as through seeing him in the movie “The 5th Element”.

I remember that there was such outrage among his fans, who called his cameo-like appearance in 5th-Element “a gyp” (among other things). After all the hype about him being-in-the-movie, he only appeared in (and I’m being generous) the, maybe, 10-minute prequel to a story that takes places 300 year later. Fans were steamed!

As I said, I wasn’t a fan LikeThat; but, I paid attention whenever I heard his name.

R.I.P.
