We're paying our respects to several stars — prolific musicians, actors, comedians, cultural icons — who died in 2022. On the heels of "Golden Girls" star Betty White's death on New Year's Eve at age 99, Sidney Poitier — the first Black actor to win best actor at the Oscars — died at age 94. Miss USA 2019 winner Cheslie Kryst, "Bat Out of Hell" rocker Meat Loaf, funk pioneer Betty Davis, Oscar-winning film editor David Brenner, and "Full House" comedian Bob Saget have also died. Each of them made a lasting mark on their respective industries. Ahead, we pay homage to those we lost in 2022.
