This
was a shock. He was in France I guess to film more of his
series that is on CNN ."Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown,"
aired on CNN The travel and food series, which
features cuisines and stories from around the world, has won
several Emmy Awards as well as a 2013 Peabody Award,
according to CNN.
Just wonder what caused him to think the world
would be better off with out him in
it?cg

Celebrity
chef Anthony Bourdain was found dead early Friday morning.
He was 61.CNN's
Brian Stelter announced on-air Friday that Bourdain hanged
himself."Anthony
was found dead this morning in his hotel room in France. He
had hung himself, in his hotel room," Stelter
said.The
outspoken chef was reportedly found unresponsive by close
friend and French chef Eric Ripert. The network said he was
working on an upcoming episode of his show "Anthony
Bourdain: Parts Unknown.""It
is with extraordinary sadness we can confirm the death of
our friend and colleague, Anthony Bourdain," CNN said
in a statement. "His love of great adventure, new
friends, fine food and drink and the remarkable stories of
the world made him a unique storyteller. His talents never
ceased to amaze us and we will miss him very much. Our
thoughts and prayers are with his daughter and family at
this incredibly difficult time."The
news of Bourdain's death comes after fashion designer
Kate Spade died Tuesday after hanging herself in her New
York City apartment. The 61-year-old's death follows
an alarming string of celebrity hanging suicide
deaths in recent years.Bourdain
has been an outspoken supporter of the #MeToo Movement since
his girlfriend, Asia Argento, accused Harvey Weinstein of sexual assault
in October."I
am proud and honored to know you. You just did the hardest
thing in the world," Bourdain tweeted at Argento after
Ronan Farrow's scathing expose about Weinstein was
published in the New Yorker.In an
in-depth interview with the Daily Beast in
April, Bourdain admitted that he has been
reluctant to speak out about the movement changing the
entertainment industry, explaining that he didn't want
to steal the spotlight away from the women the movement is
about."It's
something I'm very aware of when I hear myself talking
about it—it makes me very uneasy," he told the outlet.
"These are not my stories, so I feel that every time I'm
talking about it I'm taking up space that should be
rightfully taken by a woman. It's a fine line for me. I
don't particularly enjoy talking about it. But if you ask
me, I'll tell ya."Born
in New York City, Bourdain grew up in suburban New Jersey
but resented his normal life."I
deeply resented the relative stability at my house. I
started taking drugs as soon as I encountered them,"
the chef told The Guardian in
2013.Bourdain
dropped out of Vassar College after two years to pursue a
career in the culinary world. He graduated from the Culinary
Institute of America in 1978 and from there, went on to work
in various restaurant kitchens including One Fifth Avenue
and Sullivan's.His
big break came when he was appointed when he was
appointed executive chef at Brasserie Les Halles in
1998. A year later, Bourdain's celebrity grew when the
New Yorker published his now-famous "Don't Eat Before Reading
This," an article which exposed the inner
workings of restaurant kitchens.Capitalizing
on the interest in his expose, Bourdain released the
non-fiction bestseller "Kitchen Confidential" in
2000 which made him a household name. His other books
include the novels "Bone in the Throat" and
"A Cook's Tour."He is
survived by his daughter Ariane.You
