Lauren Bacall, (R.I.P.) 12 August 2014

One of those little things that "other" people keep track of that was mentioned on the news a few nights ago, some what overshadowed by Robin Williams passing away a day or so afterwards.

No doubt, everyone here knows Madonna's song "Vogue" and all the famous people she mentions in the lyrics, ....... but did you ever think of which ones were still alive or had passed away when you listened to the song.

With Lauren Bacall's passing all the people she mentions are now gone.

Below are the lyrics to “Vogue” with photos of the stars and the date of each one’s death underneath.
