Ironic, isn't it?

I wasn't sure where to put this...

If you've been a fan of The Temptations for some time, you've probably heard that former member Damon Harris (who replaced Eddie Kendricks) passed away a little over about a week ago, though his death was reported in national media earlier this week. Now, it's being reported that Richard Street (who in the mvoie replaced Paul Williams) has died, and on the same day Unsung is airing a episode on the late Eddie Kendricks.

Coincidence, much? To me, it will be a bigger coincidence if Harris and Street appear in the Unsung episode.

This is my signature. Take it or leave it.

Yeah that is kind of weird that they die in the same week and they showed the Temptations movie last night. Soon as Unsung premeried the Eddie Kendricks episode tonight, I was on my laptop as I was watching Unsung and an article was on Yahoo.com saying that a former Temptation had died, I clicked the article and it was Richard. They were talking about Richard on Unsung as I was reading the article about his death. R.I.P to both Damon Harris and Richard Street.

When they reported in on yahoo they said Temptation dead. I click on it and it says OTIS...Damon Harris...damn trolling yahoo

I wish I can go back in time and pinch those chubby little cheeks and tell you nothing will be ok.

Damon Harris was born Otis Robert Harris, Jr.. When he joined the Temptations he changed his name to Damon because in his words the group already had an Otis.

Yea I figured it wasn't an intentional troll, but you had to admit that was misleading
