Is drugs the usual cause for porn stars' death?

[darn46]

Just wondering what usually caused their death?

I've found a couple of lists relating to porn star's death:

http://thekbh.org/dead_hos.htm (Extremely untrustworthy and demeaning)
http://everything2.com/title/Leading+causes+of+death+among+porn+stars
http://www.rame.net/faq/deadporn/ (probably the most extensive and more trustworthy one)

Leading causes are medical complications, AIDS, and suicide. Suicide by overdose is around 10% of all cases, and a few are unknown causes.

I wouldn't be surprised! most gay porn sets are completely littered with drugs! It's not officially acknowledged, but it's a common practice!
