The World Got a Lot Less Cool Today

Don Cornelius, host and creator of "Soul Train" was found dead today in his Los Angeles home of an apparent self-inflicted gun-shot wound to the head.
Cornelius was 75. You think if you could make it to 75 you might as well just play out the string. We don't know yet if he got some recent health news that prompted this.
Cornelius was just about to finish 3 years of probation he was serving for pleading no contest to assaulting his ex-wife, Russian model Victoria Avila-Cornelius.
Many people who Googled Cornelius today found this picture of Don and Victoria. It looks like they are attending some kind of TV Land event. But it looks like she is dressed for the SAG Awards.
