Puzzling Celebrity Deaths That Still Remain a Mystery Today

Alone and in Pain

At the time of his death, Prince was supposedly "isolated, addicted and in pain." A week before his death, a friend warned him that he would need to quit popping pills, but Prince said no. His most recent piano tour had caused him severe hand pain. If he stopped taking Vicodin, he could no longer perform.

According to authorities said that Prince likely had no idea that the painkillers he was taking were fake—they contained a lethal level of fentanyl. The source of the painkillers that killed Prince is still unknown.
