I read about it this afternoon, but she hadn't died yet. She was found collapsed with no pulse at her home by a maid, IIRC. Paramedics were called and were able to revive her and get her to hospital, but apparently it was only a temporary reprieve.

Lisa was the only child of Elvis and Priscilla, born nine months after they married. She released three albums, the first of which went gold. She was married and divorced four times, the second and third marriages to Michael Jackson and Nicholas Cage. In addition to tumultuous marriages, her son from her first marriage took his life in 2020 when he was 27.

Quite the rollercoaster.

They've laid off 75% of their staff and reportedly have about 20 people working their now. Kinda sounds like they're circling the Drain of Doom.

The axe came down soon after the purported purchase by Kanye was kiboshed. Sounds like that sale was a last-ditch effort to save the company, and with that money not coming in, they're in deep trouble unless a last minute bailout appears.
