stars are not 'life' they are balls of gasses... no real 'life' has been discovered in the known universe.
Not in a literal sense, but figuratively, a live star is one, such as our sun, that is producing light energy by means of nuclear fusion, whereas a dead star is one that has stopped. Without dead stars there are no available chemical elements to eventually form life, that is
minerals, water, ammonia, carbon dioxide, methane etc.
