In some shockingly sad news "Angel"'s Andy Hallett has passed away due to heart disease at the much too young age of just 33.
Hallett played everyone's favorite singing green-skinned demon Lorne on the show. The actor passed away at Cedars-Sinai Hospital in Los Angeles after a five-year battle with heart disease with his father Dave Hallett by his side.
Hallett delighted fans everywhere and has left us with some truly hilarious memories. I can think of no better way to send him off than with a song. Rest in peace, Andy, and thank you.

didnt catch this until now. very sad news indeed. Angel had such a well rounded and amazing cast but Andy was something special amidst all that. Lorne was a huge part of my appreciation for that show and im sure Andy will be missed.

R.I.P. Andy, hope you're singing something beautiful some where.

Terrible news. Hallet gave Lorne (and the show) a much needed dose of humour and heart. He will be missed.

That's thoroughly depressing. The man was brilliant, Lorne was the single brightest part of Angel most seasons. I was wondering the other day why we hadn't seen him in anything post-Angel. Guess we know now. This just sucks.
