Don Cornelius -- I Want to Die Alone

Don Cornelius Don Cornelius has made it clear he does not want to die ... married.

The "Soul Train" king was so desperate to get a divorce from his ex-wife Viktoria, that he actually put the following lines in divorce papers he submitted to L.A. County Superior Court:

"I am 72 years old. I have significant health issues. I want to finalize this divorce before I die."

The judge must have seen things Don's way -- the divorce was granted a couple of weeks ago.

Victoria Avila-Cornelius, who had filed two restraining orders against him, used the domestic violence charge to get him out of the house. NO the divorce judge will give her everything. Though he worked for it, in the end the chick gets all your money, You go girl!!!!!

American husbands are the best in the world; no other husbands are so generous to their wives, or can be so easily divorced.

Recall he pleaded not guilty to spousal abuse (domestic violence) and was banned from going anywhere near his estranged wife.

He's been homeless at the age of 72. Guys are suckers for marring.
