Investigation Discovery’s Death by Fame is back for a third season, examining the grim realities lurking beneath the glitz and glamour of Hollywood. Premiering Monday, January 13, 2024, at 9 PM ET/PT, the series continues its exploration of rising stars whose pursuit of fame ended in tragedy.
This season features eight new episodes, each a self-contained chronicle of a different individual whose life was tragically cut short. From aspiring actors to established names, Death by Fame aims to uncover the circumstances that led to their untimely deaths.
Criminal trial attorney Sara Azari returns, providing expert analysis and shedding light on the legal intricacies of each case. Her insights offer a crucial perspective, helping viewers understand the complexities of the justice system and the pursuit of truth in these often-convoluted cases.
The season premiere focuses on Adriana Pinon, a young actress who seemed to have it all. After securing a recurring role on The Young and the Restless, Pinon’s future looked bright, but her burgeoning career was tragically cut short by murder. Death by Fame sets out to explore the events leading up to her death and the subsequent investigation.
Subsequent episodes will feature the stories of model Mei Li and fashion designer Sylvie Cachay, among others. Each installment includes interviews with family and friends of the victims, law enforcement officials involved in the investigations, and journalists who covered the cases. Through these diverse voices, Death by Fame strives to create a comprehensive picture of the victims’ lives and the tragic circumstances of their deaths.
While Death by Fame undeniably focuses on the dark side of celebrity, it also aims to offer a cautionary tale about the dangers of obsession, jealousy, and the often-unrealistic expectations that accompany the pursuit of fame.
Death by Fame airs Mondays at 9 PM ET/PT on Investigation Discovery.
