Yes, the Big Bopper, whose real name was J.P. Richardson, was exhumed in 2007. This was done to conduct a DNA test to confirm his identity, as there were claims that his body may have been misidentified after his death in a plane crash in 1959. The exhumation confirmed that the remains were indeed those of Richardson.

Who died in the plane crash with buddy holly?
His bandmates were supposed to fly with him (Holly chartered an airplane because he was tired of riding in a bus, whose heater kept breaking down), but the Big Bopper and Ritchie Valens persuaded them to give up their seats. NO to the above. J.P. Richarson (The Big Bopper) was ill and was Buddy's first choice to go with him. The other person was supposed to be Tommy Allsup (Buddy's band member and friend) but at the last moment flipped a coin with Ritchie who "won" the seat. (The movie shows the coin toss between Waylon Jennings and Ritchie)
