2 more celebrity deaths. Neither appeared on The Simpsons, but authorities won't rule out that "the curse" is now killing people who never appeared on the show:

In other news, an autopsy on funk legend Rick James has proven inconclusive as to how the Curse has caused his death:

OK, here goes. In "Bart Gets Famous" Bart records a song called "I Didn't Do It" which was a parody of "You Can't Touch This," which was, of course, a song that was heavily based (and co-credited) to Rick James' "Superfreak."

I don't think he was in a film with Kevin Bacon, though.

I'll show you the Rick James cell. It's superfreaky.

Of course the curse is out of control. It killed John Wayne in 1979, before the Simpsons even existed. And he was on the show. Rick James was on the show, and he was arrested during his appearance BTW, so your assertion that the curse killed two people who were never on the show is WRONG.

The curse will eventually kill people who won't be born until long after the Simpsons is over. They same way it killed people (John Wayne) long before the Simpsons existed. In fact, this curse is so powerful that it killed people even before it existed!
