This sad, somewhat offensive rumor doesn't just stem from the Mamas and the Papas' singer's weight nor does it come from "Austin Powers." The first doctor on the scene -- a London flat on loan from Harry Nilsson -- noticed a partially eaten sandwich on Cass' bedside table, and thought she may have choked on it. Upon further inspection, it turned out that a heart attack did the singer in at just 32 years old. Coincidentally, Who drummer Keith Moon died in the same apartment four years later -- also at age 32.
