Term used to define the late June 2009 celebrity death phenomenon, where Micheal Jackson, Farrah Fawcett, Ed McMahon, and Billy Mays all died over the course of three days. (may still be ongoing at the time of writing)
"Damn, did you hear about all the celebrities dying recently?"
"Yeah, it's like a fucking celebrity death wave, man."
