It's been a while since I've done a round-up of popular posts. My Blog Stop! publishes content about a wide range of topics; from art to zen. Rather than choose posts based on a time period (30 days, a year, etc.), the round-up below are popular posts about a specific topic.
Below are 10 posts about "celebrities". Many are about famous people that are now referred to or described as "vintage", "iconic", "legendary", "Hollywood legends", etc.
(P.S. I also included some posts from my other blog, Joie de Vivre Magazine.)

In America, we love to apply the word "icon" to people who sort of serve as symbols or are symbolic of something much larger than themselves, and are representative of an ideal that we, as individuals, hope to achieve in life. It's almost as if these people are idols. Almost.

Entertainment: Celebrities: In Memory of: Doris Day (1922 - 2019)
Must say good-bye to "America's girl next door" and Hollywood legend, Doris Day . She had a major influence on my childhood development. She charmed me. That was her appeal. I think she charmed everyone; publicly and privately. I loved all of her movies. No really.

IN MEMORY OF: Humphrey Bogart (1899 - 1957)
Died: January 14, 1957 Won't be much longer now and all the glamorous Hollywood movie stars that I grew up watching will be forgotten. Stars like Humphrey Bogart, who was actually already dead by 1957, a couple of years after my birth.

Bob Marley - Rastaman Trivia 2
February 6th was the singer's birthday. But there was this interesting article at Bubblews about his memorial services with some trivia to be shared. You never know when you may need to know it! Rather than wait for May 11th, the anniversary of Mr. Marley's death, my reasoning was that since it was still February, it could be considered a sort belated birthday remembrance.

Michael Jackson (August 29, 1958 - June 25, 2009)
Michael Jackson was so much more than an eclectic and consummate entertainer. He was an extremely generous humanitarian and would no doubt like for people to remember his love and genuine care and concern for children.
Hope you enjoyed the round-up. Visit often!
