If you could travel back in time to save...
... an actor/author/musician from a premature death who would it be?*
And why?
The spin: What actor/musician would you rid the world of to replace them?
*...if this is a little too morbid for you to play, please refrain from saying that it is....thanks!

Heath Ledger - I think his passing was truly a tragic accident, and not self-inflicted like some of the druggies out there.
Replacement of: Lindsey Loho - what a waste of space.

MICHAEL!!!!!!!!!!!  (Maybe that wasn't far back enough.)
I'd try to save Marilyn Monroe.  I just find her fascinating. And I'd put her in place of Angelina Jolie's overblown pathetically non-sexy self.

Save: Buddy Holly, Otis Redding
In Exchange For: Bob Seger, Kylie Minogue
Why? Well, Buddy Holly's sound was just so unique and evergreen. And Otis Redding should have been known for more than Dock of the Bay. Both geniuses.
Now as to why I'd off Bob and Kylie? Well, Bob because they overplay him on every classic station in every city of the world. Night moves, my ass. And nothing against Kylie, but do you know why Little Eva and Grand Funk Railroad did Locomotion? So she wouldn't have to.

FYI, there's a new book out about Buddy, "Hey Buddy: In Pursuit of Buddy Holly, My New Buddy John and My Lost Decade of Music," published last month, written by Gary Moore. I have a personal connection to the book, but I probably won't get my copy until I'm in the US this summer.
My "save" is Phil Hartman. What a comedic genius and had his fingers in SO many things.
"dump" oh, there are so many (hasn't Miley Cyrus used up her 15 minutes yet?) but I'd have to say Paris Hilton and that whole crowd of famous for being famous bimbos.

Second this. Heath Ledger...I think it was an accidental overdose too and he had such potential.
Lohan (I'm sorry, your family sucks and you're young but there's no excuse for being THAT big of a fuck up), Ke$ha (Ok, I listen to a couple of those songs, but I think she's a Gaga wannabe...and she admits to smelling like ass...wtf?), John Mayer (all around asshat), or Taylor Momensen (sp?) (who has the worst case of "I'm a unique snowflake and have an overinflated ego" ever).

Ronnie Van Zant for Kanye West.
