Pretty Western-centric. I can easily pull off names of Czech entertainers out of my sleeve who are well-aged and unfortunately still sing.

Also, because the US scene is heavily popualted with African American musicians, it is not surprising the average life expectancy for singers is lower because the average life expectancy for African Americans is under average.

And...? The study wasn't about a single nationality. In fact, the US population is compared to musicians of several nationalities.
