R.I.P. Meat Loaf

2022-01-21 by Toondude | 63 Comments
Michael Lee Aday, better known as Meat Loaf, has just passed away at the age of 74. The news of his death came from a statement from the actor/singer's Facebook page, though a cause of death was not given.

His debut album, Bat Out Of Hell, is considered to be one of the best selling albums of all time, having sold over 43 million copies, while being certified 14x Platinum by the RIAA. He was apparently in the middle of recording a new album as well. Some of his most well known film credits include The Rocky Horror Picture Show, Wayne's World, and Fight Club.

Rest in Peace

Sad to hear it. According to South Park, Chef was the one who talked him into using the name "Meat Loaf." Prior to that, he was going to call himself "Couscous."

He played Robert Paulson in Fight Club, who was a bodybuilder in real life...

Apparently he was anti-mask, anti-vax mandate, and recently caught and possibly died of covid.

"Apparently he was anti-mask, anti-vax mandate, and recently caught and possibly died of covid."

He also said in regards to mask policy: "If I die, I die, but I’m not going to be controlled." Definitely hits harder now knowing that actually happened

He was 74 so I guess at that point it's kind of nice he went out on his own terms; stupidly. I'll always have a soft spot for his art though.

"Apparently he was anti-mask, anti-vax mandate, and recently caught and possibly died of covid." [2]

At least the family should had announce the cause of death. Meat Loaf was a political spokesman for the republican party and particulary Donaldo Trump, the man who keeps degrading covid impact.

I´m not even american and dont wanna get into politics, but i support Nifkin 100% statement.

Covid will go away someday, eventually. But human stupidity will prevail, forever.

Might be a bit too soon, but now we know what he wouldn't do for love; get vaxxed, or masked.

if the mask & vaccine stuff is true, sad to hear he made that choice and that it lead to this

recently hana horká, a czech singer, also died of covid because she was opposed to (all) vaccines. her son spoke about how sad and angry he is about the antivax groups that convinced her -- it's just so sad, i can't imagine losing my mother because of something like that, it's heartbreaking
