It is sad Laney died so young, especially since it seems she might have had a tough life, but it kind of seems appropriate she passed on Halloween what with her being on Face Off.

Aaron Carter Dead at 34: ‘I Want Candy’ Singer’s Body Found at Home

Former child star Aaron Carter has died. He was 34.

The “I Want Candy” singer was found dead at his California residence on Saturday, November 5, a rep confirmed to Us Weekly. A 911 call was made at 11 a.m. local time, according to reports from TMZ and The Hollywood Reporter.

The Florida native, who is the younger brother of the Backstreet Boys’ Nick Carter, rose to fame in 2000 as a child singer and rapper. His hits included “Oh, Aaron,” “Not Too Young, Not Too Old” and “That’s How I Beat Shaq.”

Aaron is survived by his siblings, including his older brother, 42, as well as son Prince, 11 months. The late House of Carter alum welcomed his baby boy with ex-fiancée Melanie Martin in November 2021. The twosome dated on and off until their most recent split in February.

Not a fan of his but too damn young to die. Also, that pic is far different than the ones most new sources are using. Did not realize he had that much face ink.

Peter McNab, a former NHL center player who appeared in 954 regular-season games between 1973 and 1987 passed away at the age of 70. He also served as the color commentator for the Colorado Avalanche since the inaugural 1995–96 season. McNab led the Cincinnati Swords of the American Hockey League (AHL) in scoring in 1973–74, despite just playing in 49 of 76 games, and debuted with Buffalo that same season. While with Buffalo, he scored his first NHL goal on December 15, 1973, against the Minnesota North Stars.

After a trip to the 1975 Stanley Cup Finals, McNab was traded to the Boston Bruins. He enjoyed the best years of his NHL career in Boston, scoring at least 35 goals and 75 points six seasons in a row and playing in the 1977 NHL All-Star Game. He twice scored a playoff overtime winning goal. On December 23, 1979, during a game at Madison Square Garden in New York, McNab, teammate Mike Milbury and several other Bruins climbed into the stands to confront fans. McNab engaged in a physical confrontation with one fan, and was soon joined by Milbury, who removed the fan's shoe and proceeded to strike the fan with it. On April 9, 1981, North Stars goaltender Don Beaupre stopped a McNab penalty shot, the first penalty shot ever taken by a member of the Bruins in a playoff game. McNab is among Boston's top ten career leaders in goals, points and playoff scoring.
The Bruins traded McNab to the Vancouver Canucks in 1984; he played in Vancouver for two seasons before signing with the New Jersey Devils, for whom his father Max was the general manager at the time. He also made his international debut for Team USA at the 1986 Ice Hockey World Championship tournament in Moscow. He retired from professional hockey at the end of the 1986–87 season after playing two seasons in New Jersey. He scored 363 goals and 450 assists during his 14 year career.

McNab played for the following NHL teams:

1) Buffalo Sabres
2) Boston Bruins
3) Vancouver Canucks
4) New Jersey Devils
