Blind Item #2 - Reader Blind

This iconic permanent A list team had a couple members that stayed the course throughout their career but also had several members who either passed away or left.

The second member to pass away was in fact a founding member who left before they got big to pursue his own acting career then came back to replace another member.

Prior to his funeral, the other members of the group took his corpse and threw a farewell party/wake. This involved the three favorite pastimes of the performer - drinking (which played a part in his death), gambling, and prostitutes. In fact, during the evening which got wilder and wilder, a hooker did engage in a sexual act with the performer's body.
