Nico
Nico first popped up in the rock-n’-roll scene as a groupie, but unlike most of her contemporaries, she leveraged every relationship she had. In fact, she became somewhat of a rock star herself. You might recall seeing her perform alongside The Velvet Underground, which was apparently after Andy Warhol played band-maker between the two parties.
As a groupie, Nico had her fair share of encounters with the rock elite, including Jim Morrison and Lou Reed. Sadly, she passed away in 1988 from a heart attack in Ibiza. She was only 49 years old when disaster struck. The rock world was shocked for a minute after her untimely passing.
