Stars Who Trended Most In 2013: Mindy McCready


On February 17th Mindy McCready tragically took her own life, shooting her late boyfriend’s dog and then herself. Horrific, but it gets worse: A month earlier, David Wilson – McCready’s record producer and father of her ten-month-old child – had taken his own life the same way. After a long history with mental illness and drug addiction the country singer succumbed to her pain, leaving two young sons. Google searches for McCready began trending in January when her boyfriend shot himself. The trend peaked with her own death in February. Just as McCready’s name disappeared from headlines by March, so search activity for the singer – who sold more than 2 million copies of her first album and put several songs on Billboard charts – has been very quiet since the same time.
