Her voice outlived disco, and most people dancing to it never knew her name.

Her sisters broke the news in a video posted Nov. 2, more than a month after she died, and told the story of her fight with breast cancer.

One slide in a candle promo disappeared fast. The screenshots did not.

She said for years exactly how she wanted it to end. Then August came.

He finished one last performance that audiences will not see until December.

The subpoena seeks hospital video from the 24 hours ending early on Aug. 25, the day the singer died.

He sang his last song seated in a chair. Weeks later, Pittsburgh lost him.

The Emmy winner never planned to act at all. He wanted something else entirely.

He was at the Hall of Fame's Sunday ceremony in Nashville three days before he died.

Days before he died, he posted a clip arguing the White family's story was not over.

Three visits, four cars in the driveway, and nobody came to the door.

One attorney's question about the host's own past landed harder than any insult.

He lost an empire, served federal time, and came back to television anyway.

For four decades, two co-stars stuck to the same story. One finally changed it.

A video game argument, a late-night phone call, and a Los Angeles courtroom.

The role took seven auditions, and he kept it for more than a decade.

He played the single that started it all, then walked away before the screaming began.

Five weeks after her death in South Carolina, police and federal drug agents are still working.

A 9:35 a.m. call in Santa Monica, and a family that asked for one thing.

She walked away from the charts in 1969 for a job nobody expected.
