There are too many ways to interpret this question.

Are we talking specifically celebrities to tragically die before their time?



If this is the question, you have many candidates from Princess Di, MJ, Kobe, John Lennon, Elvis, etc.

Kobe was huge and is fresh on everyone's mind, but I don't think he's the biggest. Princess Diana and Elvis have to be as big as you can get. Elvis has been dead for about 42 years and his house gets over a half million visitors per year. Elvis' birthplace is a museum. Princess Di's death was the only thing on the news for a while when that happened. She was loved just about worldwide. Not trying to take away from Kobe at all.

Of course not. I don’t have anything against him at all. But to suggest he’s the biggest untimely celebrity death in 42 years is asinine and seems to forget all the far more impactful deaths that have occurred in over 4 decades
