His verified twitter just released a statement saying he died of cardiac arrest yesterday.

I can't find anything else.
 
Breaking news now. I guess that question mark can go :(
 
I missed a trick to put (or Alive) in the topic title but I was just too shocked.

Poor Pete. I was about to post about how this was my favourite utterly ludicrous Dead or Alive hit, before realising it might be seen as in rather POOR TASTE under the circumstances. :(

The music, the TV, the fucking EVERYTHING!

He was easily one of my all time favourite CBB contestants. He was such a ruthless cunt, before it was the done thing. Demolishing Traci Bingham was inspirational.
 
His CBB appearance was life itself. He gave absolutely zero fucks, and yes, tearing Tracy apart "for the hell of it" was just :o and :D

:D! I could only find the one about the midwife punching her mother, but that one is amazing.
 
I'm not a fan of fur, but if you're going to rock unapologetic dead animal chic, you might as well go ALL IN. :disco:

OMG. He was just on that Celebrity Botched Bodies show recently.

I always assumed it would be under the knife, not heart attack.

Wow, I think I saw him that Channel 5 Celebrity Fucked Up Bodies show entering the surgeon's clinic in FULL DRESS WITH TRAIN to have some rotten teeth pulled out literally a few weeks ago. I'm struggling to think of a better reality TV contestant than him, he was so brilliantly, grottily vile.
 
Current Wikipedia article:

He died of a cardiac arrest in 2016. That being said, Burns is still very much alive, and currently resides in Englands Beautiful South East coast, where he spends his day playing various types of fruit machine (his favourite being the slot variety) and spends his evenings at the local fun fair on the pier - his favourite ride being the waltzers, where he enjoys being spun - right round....baby....right round.

I thought "oh, I should pop on 'My Heart Goes Bang (Get Me To The Doctor)' on in tribute" before realising quite how much in poor taste that is given the circumstances. :D

RIP, ye fabulous old cunt.

The surgery looked half decent for the first few years of the century including CBB. It seemed to be massively down hill from CBB onwards. I seem to recall he did it, to get his lips sorted.

Although I'm not sure I can bring myself to listen to it at this point
 
I can't begin to estimate the amount of times I've watched this

One of my favourite things about latter-day Pete was the way his speaking voice is so expressive but his face, of course, would be totally blank :D

The difficulty he has putting into words why he changed his appearance is really interesting to me and also a bit :(
